I'm not sure there's a response to my concern in your response.
I'm aware that there's an aggressive schedule, but I question that value of
releasing Teiid on it's projected release date, if the Designer is not ready to
release, or vice versa. I have changes coming in 6.1 to connectors that are depending
upon importer changes. I can mock up tests for the connector changes, but I won't
really be able to validate a feature until I have two stable projects in my hands that are
pretty much locked down.
We can call them independent all we want, users will disagree. There's already
traffic on the lists to demonstrate that.
What's wrong with leaving it on the shelf until both are ready, and then making it
official?

support the Designer, but the current thought is just to wrap up Teiid
6.1.0 in the near term. Teiid Designer has an aggressive schedule for
their 6.1 release, but there's no guarantee that it will be extremely
close to Teiid 6.1.0.

Subject: [teiid-dev] 6.1 Release
I'm having issues testing the 6.0 release and I want to ensure that we
have a plan for 6.1 to address the issues I'm having.
The challenge is this. Teiid 6.0 was released on the 23rd of March.
The 6.0 Designer release is just now wrapping up - a month later.
It's difficult to accurately determine the quality of connectors
delivered in 6.0 until the Designer is finished and I can create the
models that the connectors consume. This is particularly accute when
there is a strong connector dependency on importer-produced metadata
(such as XML-Relational and
Salesforce.com connectors).
Are we planning on releasing Teiid Designer and Teiid together (or
extremely close) for 6.1?
I've copied both dev lists to ensure that both projects are included.
