It's not a crime. It's just pointless. We don't estimate releases, and there are too many people working on too many things for anyone to really know. Nobody *I* know of is working on it, for example, and I generally have a decent idea what most of the "main" developers are doing. But that doesn't mean nobody is.
Anyway, asking won't make it happen any sooner, so it's 100% pointless to do so other than to solve curiosity. So, is your curiosity worth screwing up our searches? No, it's not.
