Just to close this - based on the related versioning thread, is the community 
in agreement with the upcoming release as 1.0.0-incubating.M1? Or do we need a 
formal vote on this?

Thanks,
Nitin

As a current Gemfire user, my preference would be for Geode 9 - especially
if the major version of future Gemfire versions are inline with the major
