Re: [glob2-devel] 1.0 talked about again

[Kieran P]

Opps. I posted this in the other mailing list thread. So I'll post it here again (and maybe continue talk here :P )


Indeed. 1.0 would be an excellent thing to do (and this would finally
bring it out of alpha)! But as already said, it needs to be the most
stable version of Glob2 so far. That means a complete feature freeze
once Brad finishes his rewrites. The only thing being pushed to master
should be bug fixes over a 1 month RC cycle in which time massive
testing of all the features and clearing of all bugs in the bug tracker
should take place (that is unless Brad decides to rewrite another
thing, which would be good, but time consuming). We'll need all the
help we can get :D

But the end result, 1.0.0, will be an awesome achievement.

As for future releases, I see it as this:

[core rewrite].[new features].[bug fixes]

So
1.0.0 would then become, after fixing any bugs left behind, 1.0.1, and
the devs would work on 1.1.0  (which might include priorities and
such). 2.0.0 is a long, long way off. 3-5 years or so away :P 

And finally, we have a wishlist for a reason :P Some things need to be implemented eventually. The game needs to improve :P

Kieran

People seem to be hankering for a 1.0 release so lets say that we go for it. The way I see it, it should be done as follows:

* Lots of release candidates, more frequent, but not Alpha releases

As opposed to our current system of Alphas, the release candidates will be more frequent, each time converging on a stable 1.0 release.
