Hi All

A while ago I responded to a question from the ASF about the date of our last 
release [1] and the answer was that Kibble has never done one. Kibble was 
created as a TLP so bypassed Incubator where we would have had to create at 
least one. We have interest in the project from within Apache, also from CHAOSS 
saying that we can be apply to become a reference software that implements some 
of their metrics (which I think will give the project some great visibility!). 
We also have some users out there - I know specifically of Project Jupyter.

With no release information - it can be difficult for existing and new users to 
have a stable base to explore the project from. We do have our Live Demo but I 
have no idea whther the version that is running is changing as we update the 
code or is several months / years old. My point here is that without having a 
release as a benchmark we could be missing things.

Anyway my question is as in the subject line is - how hard would it be to 
create a release? Could we use Kibble-1 since we already have the code that is 
currently being run for the demo?

If that is too hard then another option could be to do some sort of basic 
release of the new Kibble -  bearing in mind that we will have a mismatch 
between the demo functionality and what we call our release. I am not sure what 
is feasible so am opening this discussion up to the community to get some 
feedback.

So I am happy to hear people's thoughts, suggestions and creative ideas of how 
we could look at approaching this.

Thanks
Sharan
