> Hi everyone,
>
> We need to organize JIRA for our 1.0 final release. As the 1.0 release
> manager I'm listing in this email my view on what 1.0 should container
> and the roadmap. Please let me know all your comments.
>
> Definition
> ==========
>
> * 1.0 means that the application can be used in production and does
> something useful. This is already the case as XWiki is used in lots of
> places in production. As a consequence
1.0 should be as close as
> possible to the current version in trunk but bugs fixed.
> * All usability improvements or new features should thus be moved to
> 1.1 or after.
>
> Timeline
> ========
>
> * 1.0 beta 1 is going to be delivered today (19th of Dec 2006)
> * I'd like to allow for 2 weeks releases from now on till 1.0 final.
> Thus:
> - 1.0 beta 2 for the 6th of January 2007 (allowing for 1 week during
> Christmas)
> - 1.0 rc1 for the 20th of January 2007 and promoted to 1.0 final if
> stable after 2 weeks of users using it, i.e. for the 3rd of Feb. 2007
> - If rc1 is not stable enough, then we do a rc2 for the 3rd of
> February and promote it to 1.0 final if stable after 2 weeks of users
> using it (i.e.
> 17th of Feb)
>
> What this means is that for 1.0 final we should add JIRA issues *only*
> for doing work till the 20th of January. Evyerthing else must be moved
> to 1.1 and beyond.
>
> As a technical aside, this means that we will create a 1.0 branch on
> the 6th of January 2007.
>
> Let me know if the dates are ok with you.

> Contents
> ========
>
> * Known Bug fixes.
> * News bug fixes discovered when user start using 1.0 beta 1
> * A few select features. I'm proposing:
> - Page Rename. Lots of wikis have this feature and I think that's the
> major feature we're lacking right now.
> - Email notification when pages are modified (watch feature). Only if
> we already have most of the code. Otherwise move to 1.1.
> * Documentation, documentation and documentation. This means finishing
> moving old.xwiki.org to
xwiki.org and documenting new features like the
> new {image} macro, etc
> * More simple and quick wins macros so that there are less HTML in the
> pages. For example: {column} macro to display content on several
> columns, {panel} macro to display panels in pages.
> * Start packaging applications (blog, search, photos, etc) in XAR
> files.
> This will allow to releases new versions of these even if the core is
> not released again.
>
> Note: The number of bugs that we'll fix will only depend on the
> manpower that we have. In other words, we'll fix as many as possible
> but still release with outstanding bugs. Of course critical bugs needs
> to be addressed first.
>
> Let me know if you know of other tasks that you think must absolutely
> be done before 1.0 final.
>
> Next steps
> ==========
>
> Could everyone who's going to work on
1.0 final please review his tasks
> in JIRA and move them according to the strategy above, and assign them
> to himself/herself? When you do so please remember that you're
> committing to working on the issue in the timeframe allocated for the
> different releases.
> It's very important that everyone respects this so that we don't
> deviate from our release dates.
>
> Please all target to have a sorted out JIRA till 1.0 final by Friday.
