I think the major question is "who is Mono 1.0 for?".
|
|
|
|
Is the purpose to target more of the same kind of people who have
|
|
already found Mono, or is it to extend the Mono-awareness in other
|
|
groups as well? If the latter is desirable, a "1.0" tag can always be
|
|
used to attract the press, which can in turn cause the word to spread to
|
|
places it hasn't yet reached -- which in turn can raise expectations...
|
|
(I'm thinking Windows users here, but also people who are looking for an
|
|
alternative to Java or for a good framework to extend Unix/Linux who
|
|
haven't yet discovered Mono.)
|
|
|
|
If Mono 1.0 is difficult to use and grasp, and if it causes
|
|
disappointment to the people who have never seen it before the 1.0
|
|
release, then a great opportunity has been lost.
|
|
|
|
For everyone who is already using Mono, a version tag of 1.0 will hardly
|
|
make any difference if the functionality you need is there. To these
|
|
people, it's Just A Number (or it should be, anyway).
|
|
|
|
I think it's actually not so much about what subset of .NET to release,
|
|
and more about making sure that what is released is usable in practise,
|
|
is of the highest quality, and that the release is accompanied with a
|
|
message that helps potential users to have the right mind set when
|
|
looking at the product.
|
|
|
|
I second the opinion that documentation is of very high importance -- it
|
|
is part of the message telling what Mono 1.0 is, and what it isn't
|
|
(yet).
|
|
|
|
To conclude, Mono 1.0 should be high-quality, as stable as possible, as
|
|
well documented as possible, and it should contain the pieces that are
|
|
needed for Unix/Linux hackers as well as people coming from a Windows or
|
|
Java background to start building things with as little adaptation
|
|
needed for the tool change as possible. As if this weren't everybody's
|
|
wish list, anyway :)
|
|
|
|
Cheers,
