Exactly. The tens of thousands of Eclipse users will be in familiar territory.

But to be on the safe-side, did pull together a list of 62 "haves" and
"have nots" to be absolutely clear on what we are giving people.  If
we have any energy to spend, let's spend it there.

I'd prefer not to make the 0.x initial release mistake again :)

What's that?

Subject: Just a quick remark about naming of the release

Dain mentioned that the release will be called "1.0M1".  I
wanted to voice concern that calling it "1.0" is going to
make people think it's very close to shippable as a 1.0.

If that's the case, great - go for it.

If not and you see some significant time yet to be spent
before it being "1.0"-ish,  then I think the project would
ensure some 'slack' if it were just called "M1" or something
as it should keep user's expectations reasonable.

Just my 0.02.  This concern of mine is no way intended to
stand in the way of whatever is in process - just wanted to
speak up before it's too late.
