Re: [hibernate-dev] [HSEARCH] JIRA guidelines

I am seeing a lot of issues being assigned to 4.1. I find it unrealistic. Below is a gentle reminder on how I'd like us to assign versions.

While I'm not 100% inlined with their rule, I am sympathetic to the idea of a managed flow of JIRA issues. I'm not sure how this can be applied to (or at least get closer with) search, validator and ogm but I'm open to ideas. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
