Hi Yufei Thanks for volunteering for the 1.0 release ! I've started to review the legal aspect for this release as it will include binary distributions. The milestone scope looks good to me and makes sense.
My only comment is about the dates. I think it's a bit early to strongly commit to specific dates. Regarding 1.0, April 2025 is do-able I think, assuming we are able to have consensus "quickly" on some proposals (I'm thinking about persistence layer improvements for instance). As these proposals are discussed within the community, sometimes it takes time to discuss all the points and find a consensys. So, if we say, "as best effort, we target 1.0 on April 25", that's totally fine to me. But I'm not very comfortable with "1.0 will be available on April 25". Just my $0.01 :) Regards JB On Mon, Feb 10, 2025 at 5:01 PM Yufei Gu <flyrain...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi folks, > > Great news—Apache Polaris 0.9 is nearly ready!
