I agree. Having a goal for 4.3.0 and working towards that will be best,
even if it means making 4.3.0 somewhat feature stripped, e.g. no working
backwards compatibility layer. (4.4.0 is the version which would need
all the stuff, but we need not care about that yet.)

I think, Peter is ideal, de-facto he has the role of 4.3 maintainer
already anyway :)
