Re: [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]. In fact, a number of the issues required some fairly significant refactoring of the state management components in our JCR implementation. The original 0.6 plan, however, was include a search and query feature. I've made a lot of progress with search/ query, but I still have a few weeks of completing the feature development and integrating it with the connectors and JCR implementation. There are also a number of outstanding issues that we need/want to fix, so I'd guess we're still a month away from the planned 0.6 release. However, a number of people have taken a look at 0.5 recently, and they've run into some of the same issues that we've already fixed. They're currently using trunk, but have asked when the next stable release will be available. We can either continue our current plans, or change our schedule a bit and release 0.6 without the search/query feature (or the fantastic Eclipse publishing plug-in). For the record, we released 0.5 on June 11, and that's just under 3 months ago. I'm leaning toward releasing 0.6 early and moving the search/query and Eclipse features to the following release (which may actually be a 1.0 candidate). That would require me putting aside the search/query stuff for a few days (maybe a week) so that I can focus on fixing a number of the more critical and high-priority issues (we still have a few TCK regressions that we should fix before releasing) and reviewing/ editing the documentation. But I think it's worth it so that we can get another much more stable release out the door for people to use. Please share your thoughts and comments. I would like to decide within a day or two.
