I am looking forward to ACME 2.0 becoming an RFC! Once that happens, I can ping our ACS team to start bugging InCommon to spin up the appropriate server components. My guess is the other CAs are waiting for ACME 2.0 before they really spin up support for it.

For anyone interested in tracking the progress of ACME 2.0, take a look here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-acme-acme/

I don't know much about ACME 2.0 (except that it is apparently necessary for LE to be able to start offering wildcard certs). Can you expand on why CAs are waiting for 2.0?

Probably because it's the first IETF-approved spec for the protocol; right now it's all in draft status. LE itself will be adding ACMEv2 next year.
