I think that what the main problem will be, is when people who haven't played 1.1 in a long time, see on a website, "Tremulous 1.2 release!" They will think, "Oh yay! Finally 1.2 came out! Let's download it and see how awesome it is!" But when they enter a server, they cannot tell the difference since they haven't played 1.1 in so long anyways. (No graphical enhancements, models, or maps.) I think 1.2 should wait for main release until the models are included, and hopefully new maps.
