Hi all,
I would like to declare that the next release will be numbered 1.0. Now that
I'm using Box Backup myself on my laptop, I'm more confident about its
stability, and my ability to support it. And it would hopefully help to boost
adoption if we declare that stability to the world.
Would anyone object to this?
I know that some important features are still missing, such as snapshots and
backups to Amazon S3, but these still require major work to complete, and I
don't feel the need to delay the 1.0 release for years while I find time here
and there to implement them.
The release should hopefully happen in the next few weeks, as soon as I get all
tests passing on Windows, NetBSD and OpenBSD (and maybe SmartOS). Thanks to
James O'Gorman once again for providing the virtual machines for testing Box on
different platforms!
Cheers, Chris.
