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).

3. We definitely don't want a distinct branch for 1.1, as the experience with 1.0 proved that it can create only problems. We don't have enough developers to work on two-three branches.

WDYT?

Thanks
