Hi, With my mentor hat on shardingsphere, I've been following up the community activities. I think the release that we discussed is a same case like other podling project. Image that we didn't want to affect my previous users, we will work on the old version outside of Apache with the original package names, and work on the next step to rename and follow the apache way to release.
Also, I prefer the first committer invitation, the first release, any first community behavior must be approved by 3 +1 mentor votes. I think it will help the community better understand apache best practice when we building the community.
