I think that it's not nice to plan 1.0.1 so
soon... It means that
we already know there are bugs, and we're releasing a buggy product
anyway.
But we do know of these bugs! They're the ones we won't have time to
do for the 1.0 final. I don't see any issue with that and it would
certainly be much worse to try to hide bugs... Of course we need to
fix all the bugs we consider critical for the 1.0 final but we
shouldn't stop it because we still have bugs or we will never release
it...
Also, I don't know if we can count on a 1.1 release so soon. We
currently lack the power to push things so fast. Remember, only you
(Vincent) and Nam are going to work on the core in the next few
weeks/months.
WDYM by "so soon"? Do you mean the 3 months timeframe?
My POV is that 1.1 doesn't have to be a revolution and if it only
boasts, say, 5 new features, it still warrants a release.
Thanks

PS: It's not only Nam and me. It's also everyone submitting patches
and potentially all the current committers! :-) I'm also 100% sure
we'll get some other new people who'll contribute.

Please all committers answer on my previous email and this one to
ensure we're all on the same page and all agree on the way forward...
Thanks

Hi,
I'd like to propose the following:
* Release RC1 by end of next week with as many important bugs fixed
as possible
* Wait for 1 week after RC1 is released and declare RC1 to be 1.0
final is no critical/blocking bugs are found
* Dedicate the XWIKI 1.0 branch to contain ONLY bug fixes going
forward
* Put new features/improvements ONLY on trunk
* Release 1.0.1 2 to 3 weeks after 1.0 is released with bug fixes
* Define a roadmap for 1.1 in term of what we want in it. It should
be achievable within 3 months.
* Change the version on trunk to be 1.1-beta-1 and release after
2-3 weeks. Increase to 1.1-beta-2 and repeat, etc. till we either
reach something close so the initial roadmap for 1.1 in term of
features or we reach the 3 months delay. In any case, release 1.1
at that time.
* I propose to NOT create a branch for 1.1 till the final 1.1 is
released and when it is I propose we don't release 1.0.x releases
any more and instead release 1.1.x bug fixes releases (we don't
have enough manpower to support more than 2 releases in parallel,
it's already going to stretch us a lot).
WDYT?
Thanks
