We are tagging RC of big releases. This release was super small (eventho 
breaking compatibility). And actually, it's better to be released rather 
sooner than later. I will definitively think about RC of smaller 
releases (2.3.x -> 2.4.x).

Should be, but it's not tested.

Yep. Idea is to allow scenario of qnetd administrator role. So basically 
regular (non-root) user within coroqnetd group without root passwd 
knowledge/sudo administering qnetd.

Nope it shouldn't.
