Thank you for starting the discussion, Indeed, a release every quarter makes perfect sense to me.
Shall we start then by scheduling, i.e release 0.5.x this month (end of Q3) and then 0.6 by the new year? We can also think about scaling this later I.e by nominating a release-manager every quoter, etc. Enthusiastic +1 for giving it a try. -- Kind regards, Alexander > On 17 Sep 2015, at 12:53, moon soo Lee <m...@apache.org> wrote: > > Hi Vinay, > > Thanks for great suggestion. > As you know, current roadmap is feature based.
