Great to hear :) Can the two items on the incubator check list be checked off then?
While I don't think a release should be necessary (my opinion anyway),having an alpha released seems useful, especially as the move to TLP could be timed with the release of a beta and some PR. Is JSPWIKI-636 the last item for the alpha? (fixing tests)? Hen On Sun, Sep 19, 2010 at 9:16 AM, Craig L Russell <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Henri, > > We're mostly done with incubation.
