Not in my opinion. Feel free to stick with 2.7. I am running a couple
of legacy applications that work great with Seaside 2.2. Other
open-source projects have much tighter release cycles, Mozilla has a
major release every couple of months.
Seaside development happens mostly (if not all) as unpaid work of
volunteers. There are other forces that drive Seaside: the need for
new features, the need for speed improvements, the need for simpler
and cleaner code, personal interests in particular problems, etc.
The great plans were/are:
2.6: ?
2.7: Deprecation.
2.8: Lower memory requirements, improve speed, improve extensibility, cleanup.
