As an incubation mentor I have previously suggested that creating a first release as soon as possible would be a good thing in terms of "training" this team with the Apache release process. I still think that's a good idea, and I assume we wouldn't make much noise about such a release. We can call it a "subset release" or whatever's suitable, its just a good step towards making a first "real" release that Flex users find really useful compared to the current Adobe Flex release. If you're frustrated about the full code donation taking too much time, that's a totally different topic IMO. If the code had been fully donated already, I would still recommend releasing it as soon as possible, but for users having a release that doesn't bring any new features is not really useful anyway, so that wouldn't change this situation. -Bertrand
