Re: [equinox-dev] Equinox Aspects: Reworked website, quick-start guide and Hello world! demo
|
Hi Jeff,
we discussed this briefly and the result is: we would like to do ALL
this stuff... ;-)
Our idea would be:
1. lower the version numbers to make the incubator status clear. This
includes communication with the community to avoid confusion and to make
clear that this does not include lowering the quality of the code
produced so far... ;-)
2. produce some more milestone builds instead of what we called releases
in the past. We will write up a project plan as a wiki page that
includes open bugs and our goals for upcoming milestone builds.
3. start the graduation process for a future first release of equinox
aspects including reviews, a release review and whatever is necessary to
graduate... :-)
What do you think?

Possible solutions:
- graduate
- lower the version numbers
In either case there will need to be a review if there is going to be a
"release". You could avoid a review if the version number is lowered
AND the event is rephrased as a milestone.
As for dealing with the past, well, dropping the version numbers would
certainly cause some confusion. Graduation would retain the version
number sequence but we'd have to have a discussion in the wider
community to see if graduation is warranted (I have no evidence either
way at this point).
I'm certainly open to alternatives.

Thanks Bjorn and Jeff for the clarification!
Now the question arises how we should deal with upcoming releases of
equinox aspects while being in incubation... ;-)
Since we published releases with versions 1.x I am not sure what the
best way is to move on. We mentioned the incubation within the bundle
names and download zips (according to the guidelines I hope). Should
we go back to versions 0.x with the next releases (with some
explanations to avoid confusion)?

The policy that we've been following/enforcing is that a project in
incubation must have releases < 1.0 and that projects out of
incubation have releases >= 1.0. I apologize that this is not clearly
written.

In any event, Bjorn (cc'd) would certainly know if there is an
actual policy on this.
