I'll second two things that David mentioned:

1. Release 1.0 first. We have a release that as others have said, passes the JSR 220 TCK and is production-ready. Let's make some noise. Even though we won't have the incubator to officially bless the releases, it will still take some time to get out.

And in the middle of the release, we will likely have to deal with the change of repository from incubator to openjpa. (I think Eddie is overly optimistic in thinking that the incubator => tlp process will only take a week). But I don't think we need to wait until it's complete to start the release process.

Now, we need a release manager volunteer.

2. Scrub the bugs in JIRA. I think we should go through them and make sure there are no showstoppers for a 1.0 release.

3. Just one more thing. It doesn't really require a JIRA to track, but a JIRA per area might be useful so we don't get in each others' way. The wiki, site, and doc need to all be updated to remove the incubating disclaimer.

It sounds like there are a bunch of new things that we'll be doing in
this process; maybe we should do a 0.9.8 first to get the various
artifacts all sorted out, and then do a 1.0?

I think that there will be enough confusion and retries to get an acceptable 1.0 release out with the moved infrastructure that there's no need to complicate the process with an immediate version change. In other words, go for 1.0 now.

I do think you should review the jiras a bit before releasing. For instance I'm sure you want to apply the 2nd patch to OPENJPA-148 or undo the first patch since the first patch makes it really easy to create an NPE.
