I'd really rather get 1.0 out with this limitation noted and then make this an extremely high priority for 1.1. Just to be clear I do realize this is a potential issue for many people, but fixing it would delay a release by at least a month or more. We've had 1.0 on the verge of release for almost five months, and right now it's stalling the project overall. We have enough other issues that we really need to just ship 1.0, clear the blockage and get back to making rapid progress. I'm hoping we can ship a 1.1 within a month or so after 1.0. So given that, I'd rather just ship 1.0 and follow with 1.1 after. This gets a 1.0 into the hands of people who can use it sooner and get's the encoding issues resolved in roughly the same amount of time overall. Is this agreeable? I know this is critical to get fixed, but for the health of the project (and my sanity) I feel it's better to release 1.0 with the existing flaws then to continue to hold it. > -- > Stefano Mazzocchi One must still have chaos in oneself to be > able to give birth to a dancing star. > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Friedrich Nietzsche > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > Kimbro Staken - http://www.kstaken.org - http://www.xmldatabases.org Apache Xindice native XML database http://xml.apache.org XML:DB Initiative http://www.xmldb.org Senior Technologist (Your company name here) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
