Yup, that's it. It hasn't been filled in with dates right now, because they
just kept getting shifted. Karl gave up two or three weeks ago and just made
them TBD.
In another week or so, the guys will have more time with SVN and will
actually be able to schedule out the milestones again. As usual, we want to
shoot for releases every 3-4 weeks containing the typical feature polishing
and bug fixes. The current issue-to-release markings will be reviewed and
possibly "re-bucketed" to hit the 3-4 week timeframes.
Note: right now, the list is at a bit over 100 issues. If you assume that
each issue takes an average of 2 days to fix, that is 200 man days of work.
Let's say there is the equivalent of four full-time developers available
five days a week. That gives you 10 calendar weeks of work to reduce that
list down to zero.
Could we truly hit Tom's suggestion of 45 days? Not without redefining what
we want 1.0 to incorporate, or getting a larger number of developers banging
against that list of issues. I'd respond, "I don't think we should" and "I
don't see it happening." We have some truly excellent coders contributing,
but to magically come up with another one or two *full-time equivalents*
(e.g. about eight part time people) just isn't reasonable.
