Hi Avi, Thanks for trying out, Samza. Also, for pointing out the missing documentation. There is no specific reason why the download pages weren't published. I will take a look into what went missing and fill the gap.
You are right. The 0.10.0 branch is related to the release. If you want to build from source and give it a shot, please do try. Thanks!
