I've tagged 7 tickets as "critical" [1] for 1.1. All of them deal with CQL; I strongly believe that 1.1 needs to be where CQL goes from being "the future" to being "the present." We've been promising this for almost a year now and it's time to deliver. All of these (with the exception of 3707, w

Unless you need the new features, you don't need to upgrade. And the current version won't stop getting updates. As mentioned in the thread where the project moved to a 4 month major version cycle, smaller changes between major versions means they will be more stable. Even with the smaller cy

Just a reminder that for us to meet our four-month major release schedule (i.e., 1.1 = Feb 18), can you make release cycle slower? its better to have more new features and do major upgrades less often. it saves time needed for testing and migrations.

Just a reminder that for us to meet our four-month major release schedule (i.e., 1.1 = Feb 18), we need to code freeze on Jan 18, which is just about a month away on the calendar but significantly closer in terms of man-hours as people take holiday vacations. I've taken a first stab at moving issu
