[E-devel] Proposal for previous version (or RC) before final Elm1.0

[Gustavo S. B. <bar...@pr...>]

Hi all,

Recently we changed Elementary in some radical ways and while we tried
to fix SVN usage to cope with new behavior, I truly think we need to
do a proper release before calling it 1.0, in order to let a broader
number of people to test and check their software against it. After
this feedback, if no showstopper happens, we can just bump it to 1.0
and be happy.

This can be either as a 0.99 or as release candidate (RC). The number
doesn't matter. What does matter is to take it as serious as before:
we get them packaged for major distros. It would be great to highlight
distros MUST package it, and include the
http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/wiki/ElementaryChanges in the
documentation and release notes.

We developers are so bound to SVN that often forget that people do use
Elementary from packages. We need their feedback as well.

That's it, let's have this formal release before calling it 1.0?
