So, where do we stand on the vote? Is the vote still open, or are we going to resolve XAP-579 (source and binary builds) and try again with a 0.5.1 ?
I've been reviewing the 0.5.0 build. I'm not sure all of the samples work, because I'm not sure what all of them are suppose to do :), but I would like to see XAP move toward another release, and work to build the type of transparent, robust community we need for graduation. -Ted.
