Hello everybody, I would like to suggest that an M9 milestone release of TinkerPop3 should be made available soon. The rc3 that went out earlier today seems to be in good shape. More importantly, any further testing and validation of TP3 will require vendor adoption so that an entire graph stack can be tested. For this, we need an M9.
Titan has been tracking TP3 SNAPSHOT for a last couple of weeks and we invested 100s of development hours into ensuring compatibility on the OLTP and OLAP side. We have completed this process with 1000s of test cases (both unit and integration) passing successfully. At this point, we need to be able to publish a milestone release of Titan to get additional user feedback and validation in the context of actual uses cases. This will also benefit TinkerPop3 greatly as evidenced by Dylan's and Andrew's reply to Marko's email this morning. We are ready to issue a 0.9M2 release of Titan as soon as TinkerPop3M9 comes out. Anybody else who is eagerly awaiting an M9, please +1. Thank you, Matthias
