However, there was also a discussion around making the major 1.0 release but this would require substantially more time because it is our opportunity to remove APIs and cleanup the language. I'd like to propose the following: let's release a 0.11 release in the next couple of weeks, targeting at Spark 1.x including the old and new MLContext APIs as well as both file-based and frame-based transform. Subsequently, we can focus on our major 1.0 release, including the support for Spark 2.x, the removal of the old MLContext API, and the removal of the file-based transform functionalities. Hopefully we get compression and GPU support into production-ready state until the 1.0 release too. The next step would be to collect open issues for the 0.11 release. From my perspective, this should mostly center around documentation, robustness and performance of the new MLContext API and frame support as well as the simplification of our build process.
