[VOTE] Release plan
"Release soon, release often", uh? :-) We have been talking about a
release, with little left to work on (AFAIK, there are no outstanding
bugs ATM). I understand that Vladimir has a patch ready to set the
configuration of the embedded database, and I'm waiting to see it
committed so that we can remove the last open point and proceed to the
next release.
My proposed plan is to:
1. Release a beta next Tuesday (Jan 27);
2. if everything goes well, release 1.1 final on Feb 11.
3. start working on 2.0 :-)
Kimbro: you have been doing the releases until now. Are you available
for this scheduled plan? All: who is available to help with 1.1
documentation?
Committers, please place your vote. Here is my +1.

+1.
Since as I've mentioned I'm stuck behind a firewall, I can't test
out the new release unless I bug someone for help in downloading,
so releasing often (biweekly or at least monthly) would be
enormously welcome. After I'm done with my lit review and have some
time to spend I'll look into getting a local ISP so I can get out
from under our firewall.
Thanks all!
Murray

If you tell me what tasks need to be done, I'll make the time to do
them. I just can't coordinate the release as I have in the past. Of
course, you're already doing that so I guess it's OK. :-)

I agree and that was actually my hope for this release. Anyway, it
seems all the dist building ant tasks that I used to use have been
replaced. Unfortunately, it also looks incomplete to me. Can anyone
confirm the status?

Basically what we need is the material release: putting the right files
where they belong, mailing the announce, updating freshmeat and so on. I
think that you are the only one with access to daedalus, so you should
be the only one that can do this job ATM.
If you are over committed and don't have time, we should figure out
someone to be able to make releases (this should a good idea
nevertheless: I think that it's reasonable to have at least two people
with "release karma"). I think that in case this "honor" should go to
Vladimir, who did a terrific job in keeping this community alive in the
latest months, but if someone wants to volunteer, step up now. :-)

I'll do what I can to help, but I'm a little over committed right now
so I don't have a lot of cycles to dedicate.
