Hi all,
Agreed, master should be 4.0.0-SNAPSHOT at least till 4.0.0 is released.
However, enabling new features behind feature flags feels to me as if we
are working around the fact that we're introducing these new features
even when 4.0.0 isn't released yet. They will ship in 4.0.0 (including
any bugs they might include) but users will hopefully not notice.
Shouldn't we do feature flags, experimental new features and all the
like only *after* 4.0.0 was released? For now that would mean the
following changes in branches:
- master becomes temp-this-will-become-4.1-or-whatever
- maven-4.0.x becomes master
And then after 4.0.0 was released,
- temp-this-will-become-4.1-or-whatever becomes master again
Thanks,
Maarten

+1 from me also.
Maybe would be good to release one more rc version before switch?

In other words, why not have it all on master as 4.0.x instead, and
make certain features (like mixins) "dormant", disabled by default.
Ah sorry, I missed that point. I thought that the plan was to still
have
two branches, with only master renamed 4.1.0 and 4.0.0 renamed master.
Yes, having a single branch with new features in preview mode seems
even
better to me.
