I do not understand what my email provider has against Volkan. Once again I did not receive his email.
Looking at the archive I see you want to release 3.0.0 in February. That may be possible but that isn’t exactly what was discussed in the last video meeting we had. The meeting notes are at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hab4-RTeG13CnH5OAJlYJicSJV_fJweCZ0s1dq_LZ_A/edit. However, in looking that I don’t see mention of releases. We discussed performing beta releases and at least one RC release before at GA release. As I recall we were talking about doing a release every 2 or 3 weeks until GA.
