Good points, Ian.
3. I do believe Concierge has a good community. If I am not mistaken the
3 committers are from three different organizations.
Yes, this is true. We are also looking forward to welcome a few new
committers through the Facebook Open Academy program soon. I think for a
very technical project we are in decent shape.
Overall, I would love to see a Concierge release before EclipseCon Europe
so
Jan and others can promote it to the Eclipse and OSGi community. I don't
believe Graduation vs Incubation is a big deal for the community. If you
don't
do 1.0, I would suggest 0.8 or 0.9 to indicate it is close.
I agree. Getting the release out is the priority. Graduation is secondary.
However, my main point wrt version number is that the OSGi community is
trained to interpret versions semantically. To them, anything below 1.0
would indicate at least that the code is not ready but even more so that the
APIs are not stable and I think neither is the case. The only reason that I
hear for a sub-1.0 version is basically that the committers were not ready.
While I see how people would come to this conclusion (not having had a prior
release with Concierge), I would like to point out that I have been an
Eclipse Committer for almost a decade now (and worked on many releases with
ECF) and I think at least Jochen also has a longer tenure as an active
committer. So we are not exactly freshmen.
