Ladies and Gentlemen, Cassandra 0.8 is now out and we'll hopefully soon have the first minor release on that branch out too. It is now time to think of the next iteration, aka Apache Cassandra 1.0 (sounds amazing...). The 0.8 release was our first release on our new fixed 4 months release

I think maybe 4 months was too short? Do we optimistically want to try that again or plan on taking a bit more time? Either way I'm happy to have a plan. :) -ryan On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 9:11 AM, Jonathan Ellis jbel...@gmail.com wrote: +1 On Thu, Jun 16, 2011 at 7:36 AM, Sylvain Lebresne

+1 on a plan and we're excited for 1.0 because that hopefully means that Cassandra-1600 and friends will be resolved so that we can mapreduce over subsets of rows and over secondary indexes. On Jun 16, 2011, at 9:36 AM, Sylvain Lebresne wrote: Ladies and Gentlemen, Cassandra 0.8 is now out

There is already so much stuff on the 1.0 branch that I don't think 4 month to feature freeze is a problem. Assuming big stuff like new sstable format will go into 1.0, I am more concerned about the 1 month from freeze to release. Regards, Terje On 17 Jun 2011, at 01:39, Eric Evans
