It depends... :)
If 100% API means "implemented, tested: no bugs" then it's a nice
goal
but hardly achievable by Q2.
If we compare "100% implemented and somehow works" and "96%
implemented
and top N popular apps work fine" then IMHO the second is more
preferable.
Personally I'd prefer a JRE that runs my favorite app but misses
some API
to a
JRE that have 100% completeness but can't start my own application
What do you think?
100% agree.
But it seems that some of our predefined goals will be postponed...
This is the key to making a "release train" of developer builds.
(We've talked about this before). Namely, we need to stay on track
with our goal of completion, which I think is important.
