right, last time I brought this up the goal was to resolve all those
for an actual 1.1 release..


If that's the case that's cool.

I would like to see maybe an alpha-1 release in January perhaps
followed up a beta or two once all the confirmed new features are in
place (like profiles, etc).


I think what is critical and what is not being done is being honest about over stability of the product and of the API. Provided the API is know to be stable and the stability of the tool itself is good then a beta is fine to release. We're labeling stuff like Archiva as beta and it's not even close which I can attest to with having to try and keep it up on central for the last month. This stuff cannot go out as beta in alpha form. People will consume releases, we just have to be honest about it.

I think the decision had not be to actually break out something like
alpha and beta releases into jira but for sanities sake perhaps we
could reevaluate that.


I think the EAP stuff is fine and that could be considered the alphas but I think people like the markers. So EAPs can go out weekly, I think that's a good thing but even folks like Intellij releases betas. I think they just do the EAP thing for marketing so that it doesn't actually say alpha when it really is.

I know I went through about a month ago and poked through most of the
issues making sure they were in the right components at least...but I
think actually breaking down further into achievable shorter term
goals would be a good thing.

I think so. I mean it will be April before those 163 issues get resolved.

Hi,

If anything is thinking of doing a release of Continuum anytime soon
can you please update Continuum's JIRA so that it's representative of
what's going to be fixed for at least the next release like Kenney
and I have done for Maven itself:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG

I don't think you're doing to be fixing 163 issues for Continuum 1.1.

Thanks,

Jason.
