releasing is not only putting software "to the public", it is also "learning how to release" (at least in the incubator). Nobody expects a perfect release with a 1.0 imho. "Release often, early". > if we do a release now, we will break compatibility with next release. > Why not an Alpha of Beta or continue on a 0.0.x ? Nothing speaks against that :-) 0.0.1 sounds pretty alpha to me, i would skip the term "alpha" and just make "0.0.1". One can state on the homepage that the API is matter of change. I have only limited time, but I am willing to look at your artifacts and help pointing you to the right docs with the release. In addition I think one of the new arrived people should release. As mentioned, it is learning, and if always the old grumpys release, the new blood does not gain experience. :-) Cheers Christian > > Regards > Jeff > > > On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 12:14 PM, Raffaele P.
