 The project was idle for 2 years, the last release (v0.3.2 RC1) was made on July 2011. Reason for this might have been the project's dependency on me as sole active maintainer, which is an issue in itself.
 
-Now I am back and fully dedicated to pushing [OSS](https://github.com/Byron/bcore) forward in the realm of [digital content creation](http://gooseberry.blender.org/), and git-python will see some of my time as well. Therefore it will be moving forward, slowly but steadily.
+Now that there seems to be a massive user base, this should be motivation enough to let git-python return to a proper state, which means

 #### PRESENT GOALS
 
 The goals I have set for myself, in order, are as follows, all on branch 0.3.
 
 * bring the test suite back online to work with the most commonly used git version
-* setup a travis test-matrix to test against a lower and upper git version as well
 * merge all open pull requests, may there be a test-case or not, back. If something breaks, fix it if possible or let the contributor know
 * conform git-python's structure and toolchain to the one used in my [other OSS projects](https://github.com/Byron/bcore)
 * evaluate all open issues and close them if possible
-* create a new release of the 0.3 branch
 * evaluate python 3.3 compatibility and establish it if possible
 
 While that is happening, I will try hard to foster community around the project. This means being more responsive on the mailing list and in issues, as well as setting up clear guide lines about the [contribution](http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:22) and maintenance workflow.
