Ladies and Gentlemen, Cassandra 0.8 is now out and we'll hopefully soon have the first minor release on that branch out too. It is now time to think of the next iteration, aka Apache Cassandra 1.0 (sounds amazing...).
The 0.8 release was our first release on our new fixed 4 months release schedule. 0.7.0 was released January 9th and 0.8.0 was release just 4 months later, June 8th. Alright, alright, that's 5 months, but close enough for a first time. Sticking to that 4 months schedule, I propose the following deadlines: - September 8th: feature freeze - October 8th: release (tentative date) -- Sylvain
