Of course, this post wouldn't be complete without...

Again, thanks enormously and apologies for the delays. 3.0 will be by far our biggest release in a long time and is consuming all our time.
Afterwards, the plan is to make smaller releases and often, so it will be easier to work on the rewards sooner.

Yep :D Just like with VR, In a sense, thanks to the Patreon donations, i (Juan) can spend a lot more hours checking PRs, talking and helping other developers, etc. This has boosted a lot the contributions the past months and more developers got more help getting familiar with Godot internals.
