Not in the least.  It means it doesn't have a calendar associated with milestones.  But you could create a milestone
named "dmd 2.999 Feb 15" and assign whatever set of bugs you want to it.

I wouldn't name the releases like that, but instead have a separate roadmap that talks about milestones and stages for
them.  But every other bit of the feature set you asked for is 100% there.
