I've already committed the bug fixes and is working on getting the driver code in. For the driver I plan to get it in, once I incorporate Rob's feedback.
Once I get that in, for the second phase I would like to work with Rob to adjust the driver code to mirror the changes he's planning on the transport side. Hiram also has a patch that he's keen to push in sooner than later. Maybe we might not be able to get the second phase in by the first release. We could try to do more frequent releases initially to ensure we don't rush things into make a deadline. We could think about doing a few milestone releases (M1...Mx) monthly or bi-monthly. The frequent releases can also help in working out release and process related issues (Ex documentation, license headers, files, notices ..etc). So by the time we are ready to do the 1.0 release we will only need to focus on the code as the process is sorted out. We should also think about documentation. I see that as a major issues leading upto a 1.0 release.
