If we have enough push to do it that would be very nice. OTOH the
release should not be delayed too much so people who want to go
forward with new features (like goffice integration, pango rendering)
are not blocked too long (Here is also hoping that we can branch soon
after the release because it has been a rather stable dev cycle).
Given that it's quite a big thing to integrate the hildon port we
should maybe set a (soft) deadline / timeframe for the integration and
release 2.4 without the new port if it passes.

Just my $0.02
