Is there a roadmap / timeline for the next release?

Hi,

I'm not at all despirite for new features. So this is really more of a
curiosity question:

I see posts talking about the new distance and angle features, and
decided I was curious enough to look for more info. I see the stable
(2021,01), which I'm using and the nightly. Seems like a bit of a long
gap, and wishful thinking has me asking "Is a new stable release
imminent?"

IIRC there is no explicit roadmap, but Kintel is working hard recently
with the geometry backend (and especially about moving manifold out of
experimental #4825 https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/4825),
so hopefully we should have a next release soon (i.e. in a year or
something) when manifold related things are stabilized?

I also want to make manifold v3 support double precision ASAP to fix
#4871 https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/4871 which can be
surprising to users.
