The only person who is making a Merlin release a big deal is yourself.
I have reservations about a release, only because I thought the roadmap towards a single container coming out of this project that we all decided upon included incorporating merlin into a release of that container, but not a release of merlin by itself.
Please keep in mind that I don't want to do a release in the classic Avalon tradition. What I want to see put in place is a frequent release process with binary drops every months or two (i.e. much like the Maven approach). This will provide ample opportunity for people to learn and discover what is important and what isn't. It is absolutely clear to me that we cannot move forward on a common solution without a greater level of developer participation and with broader community knowledge of the issues involved.
As that process moves forward we will gain broader participation and understanding. And from that, there will perhaps be technologies of relevance that the Merlin project can contribute to a common Avalon solution. The difference is that those contributions will have been more broadly validated and the their value towards Avalon will be more relevant.
