It seems to me though that this is a "When did you stop beating your wife?" question. It is based on a false premise (or at least on one which has not yet been demonstrated to be true) - that the project has reached some sort of consensus that *now* is the time to change the numbering scheme. It seems inappropriate to have a vote on what type of change we should make without either first voting on the need (or timing) of the change; or offering "no change" as an option. Having two competing Vote threads makes no sense as they could lead to contradictory results. Can I ask that either we add a "No Change Just Yet" option to this vote, or cancel this vote in favour of first establishing that the majority this that *now* is the correct time to change. While I can live with a 0.5 release I think that we are doing ourselves a disservice if we do not wait the one or so extra releases that would bring us up to interoperability between all the components and the chance to move to an X.0 release number (X to be determined). -- Rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- Apache Qpid - AMQP Messaging Implementation Project: http://qpid.apache.org Use/Interact: mailto:[email protected]
