I don't lead this project and so these are only my two cents. Brad is
responsible and it is actually his decision.

Maybe doing a release once in a while is a good idea, but the problem is
the kernel module is not in that shape that I would accept it. However I
like the idea of doing everything in userspace as an ALSA plugin and
that should be the way to go.

Yeah, we really need new packages (btw 2.14) for Debian Sid.
