IMHO, we have a strong testing tradition that has lead to quality
releases. The last thing we need is for an apparent simple first
release to suffer an attendant reduction in quality.
Since we're talking about a user perspective, I take the chance of my
first post here :-)
+1 on Dan's quote.
Let's consider expectations about River. We all said that it's also a
great "marketing opportunity" to attract new attention on Jini. We
all know that one of the problems is that Jini requires a different
mental model, but it pays because it works - I mean, on a blog you
can give a bold answer and say: "ok, maybe it's not easy, but once
you've learnt it you can rely on it."
For this reason, if "users" above means a restricted group, no
problems (please forgive my ignorance but it's the first time I
follow an incubator project). If it means the wolves, I'd be worried
about "thrashable builds"...
