Hi,
do we have any specific target date for the RC1? This will
affect the GeoTools 2.5.0-rc1 release, and of course the
other GeoTools would like to know.
Cheers
Andrea
Are we wanting another beta release? Or go for RC1 for our next release? David is going through now and doing a bunch of hand testing and trying to figure out how solid it is. This release is a bit scary, since we've had two huge changes (feature model in gt2 and core config in GS). RC1 will be nice since it'll get a lot more users testing it, but we don't want to bring too much pain to them and scare them away from RC testing in the future.
Perhaps we could aim for a release at the middle of next week? And it'll be ok if it slips to friday?

Sounds like a good idea to me.

It also sounds like some of the pressure is off on the GeoTools side of things; Eclesia and his team are moved off to a mercurial (Mercurial - Mercurial) checkout for their work group.
Note I would like to get a GeoTools release candidate out representing OSGeo graduation; my understanding is there a few more issues to close (and a board meeting Friday) before that becomes a reality.

PS. I am trying to understand how this does not act like a branch and am drawing a blank 
Perhaps I will need to try it... I wonder if it preserves team history when they eventually merge?
