Hi all, Wanted to share my thoughts about our release policy.
I think it will be better for Cayenne to reduce scopes of future releases, as not many users are ready to use milestone or even beta releases. At the same time we can't create final release if there are a lot of new things, because of long feedback cycle. Good example of this problem is 4.0 version that started 5 years ago (as a 3.2 back then) and still not finished. Even Java itself released faster now :) As for nearest plans, 4.1 already have some nice features (like field-based data objects or recently added completely new dbimport interface in Modeler), so I think we can target it to feature freeze after M2. And we can already start to push new tasks into next (4.2?) version or even think about several versions ahead. So any thoughts about overall shorter release cycles or 4.1, 4.2 release plans? -- Best regards, Nikita Timofeev
