Re: [dna-dev] Releasing 0.6

I agree that we're due for an interstitial release. There's been a lot of clean-up and additions since 0.5. I think that we're pretty close to having the Eclipse plugin as well though - it may be work waiting a week for it. I'd love to hear others' opinions on that. > -----Original Message----- > From: dna-dev-bounces(a)lists.jboss.org [mailto:dna-dev- > bounces(a)lists.jboss.org] On Behalf Of Randall Hauch > Sent: Tuesday, August 25, 2009 11:58 AM > To: JBoss DNA > Subject: [dna-dev] Releasing 0.6 > > During the 0.6 release cycle, we've added a few new features and > fixed > quite a few issues with the graph library, connectors, and JCR > implementation [1].
