Based on the discussion - there does not seem to be a disagreement on the first 
2 points but we still don't have a consensus on the version number. The problem 
is that we can't branch till we do.

I am going to send a separate email on the vote for the version number. 
According to our bylaws, we need Lazy Majority from Committers and the vote 
lasts 3 days.

Subject: Next Pig release proposal

Hi,

Here is what I propose we do for the next Pig release:


(1)    Branch early next week - we have major features  and many bug fixes in 
and will be fixing remaining bugs on the branch

(2)    Publish the release by 11/15 - that will give us a couple of weeks to 
stabilize the branch and get last minute bug fixes in

(3)    Make this release a 1.0 release. Reasons to go for 1.0 and not 0.10

a.       This release has minimal number of features and was focused on code 
stabilization and bug fixes. We believe it will be a stable release

b.      It has no major interface changes

c.       Going from 0.10 to 1.0 would be very confusing

Comments?
