We've all been waiting for it. Apache Cassandra 1.0 is getting real folks. All (known) blocking issues have been resolved and October 8th is there, I see no reason to delay this any longer. I propose the following artifacts for release as 1.0.0.
SVN: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cassandra/branches/cassandra-1.0.0@r1180352 Artifacts: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-044/org/apache/cassandra/apache-cassandra/1.0.0/ Staging repository: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-044/ The artifacts as well as the debian package are also available here: http://people.apache.org/~slebresne/ The vote will be open for 72 hours (longer if needed).
