Folks!

I want to bring up two (at least for me) important issues. One is the Slide 2.1 release and one is the future release management for Slide.


Slide 2.1 Release -----------------

(1) What's in the pipeline?

First I'd like to know what you people have in the pipeline to include in the Slide 2.1 release? Speaking for myself I would want to
- finish the JCA connector and
- do some more profiling and performance enhancements


(2) Shall we release M2 or go directly for a beta?

I would like to go directly to a beta skipping the scheduled M2 release. The main reason for this will be explained below.

To clarify: I understand a beta includes a feature freeze, i.e. no new features will be added after a beta.


Release Management ------------------

I have been the release manager for the current 2.0 release and would volunteer to take this role for the 2.1 release - provided we can get the release cycle (beta -> release candicate -> final) finshed by end of September or only a little later. Judging from experience this will be possible only if we release a beta in early August - if at all. This is the reason I would vote for skipping the M2 release.

The solution I would favour, though, would be to pass the role to someone else *now*. This would make sense as I for sure will not be available for it in a 2.2 or 3.0 (whatever will come) release. If someone took over now I could still assist and introduce where I can.

Comments?
