Re: [paho-dev] Organizing Paho Releases

[Roger Light <roger@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ian,

This is a tricky problem! Before writing anything else, I see that our
release plan suggests 1.1 will be released in 10 short days. Are we
still planning on doing that? If so, I've got some fixes to sort out
for the Python client :)

I feel as though keeping the version numbers of the different
components the same is going to result in reduced pain down the line.
I also believe that code that joins the Paho project should be treated
as "new", which doesn't conflict with keeping version numbers
consistent across the project.

I'm not sure about the best plan for sub 1.0 components - it seems as
though a permanent incubator project would be the best bet if only it
could have releases.

Cheers,

Roger
