Is there any estimate for mybb 1.9?

[aker85]

I would like to ask if it would be better to focus on the development of the newer version 1.9. and close the old 1.8.
I have been waiting long enough for version 1.9 (new look, responsiveness), I hope we all will see soon.
There's no point in working on version 1.8, that's just my opinion, it's better to focus time on the latest version 1.9. that everyone is waiting for, if it contains all the elements of a modern forum, I think it will be one of the most downloaded forums.

Thanks
