FYI: I'm abandoning the even/odd release numbering scheme in favor of using preview releases. Going forward the master branch will use the following release numbering:
* 0.11.0.alpha.N.shortsha (Not tagged)
* 0.11.0.beta.N (tagged, new features expected)
* 0.11.0.rc.N (tagged, no new features expected)
MUST:
* A proper welcome page for blueprint projects (or delete it)
* Rails Integration
NICE:
* some extension commands
* Better help for commands and patterns
* Color Palette extraction and management commands
v0.11

This is a quick iteration release. The focus on turning out
even better documentation and some stylesheet updates and
enhancements that take better advantage of the Sass 3 features.
### Docs (can be done on stable)

* Compass stylesheets
* Compass ruby code

v0.12
=====
This release depends on Sass 3.2 and is aimed at taking advantage of
the new sass 3.2 feature set as well as really making the extensions
system come alive. Since I don't foresee any deprecations in Sass 3.2,
this will not be a coordinated release. Instead, this release will
trail Sass 3.2 by a month or two.
### Compass Core
* Figure out what to do about multiple attribute properties like background.
Might require list and function support from sass.
### Blueprint
* If sass 3.2 is out with @function support, use that for grid
calculations, otherwise punt to 1.0.
### Extensions
* Extension registry on compass-style.org.
* One step publishing via github + webhooks
* Easy install via CLI
* Local (per-user) extension repo with auto-discovery.
* Video showing how easy it is to create, publish, and install an extension.
v1.0 - Polaris
