Thanks Wayne, Konstantin, good to know.

Communicating clearly with the community is of course important. Fortunately we have done several milestone builds for each release already, and these have been announced, with an explanation of the difference, both on our user forum and on our project website. So they should be somewhat prepared (Famous Last Words).

Cheers,

Jeen

Agreed.

My only concern is your community understands what you're doing. A quick note on
the community forum stating something similar to what you've stated below should
solve that.

Parallel releases are not a problem. I've done many of these for the Sapphire 
project.

Me again. I need a quick word of advice on doing parallel releases: we (that 
is, technology.rdf4j) are aiming to get our first proper release out the door - 
we have tentatively planned to submit for review on Wednesday July 27, aiming 
to conclude review and release on August 3.

We are planning to do two parallel releases however: our main release, 2.0, is 
the main code base and the most recent version of our project. However, we also 
want to release a version 1.0, which is a backport of our code base to Java 7 
(our main project is Java 8).

Technically there is no reason for us not to do both releases at once, but I'm 
slightly worried about making the review process itself too cumbersome. Should 
I go ahead and just submit both releases for review at the same time (in 
separate reviews, of course)? Or would it be better/easier to do them 
sequentially?

Thanks,

Jeen
