[BioSQL-l] release plan

[Hilmar Lapp]

I put up a v1.0 release plan on the BioSQL wiki:

http://www.biosql.org/wiki/Releases

It is posted for your convenience below. Please let me know any  
comments or suggestions that you have.

There are a few open questions in there, if anyone has any  
suggestions or ideas towards those that'd be highly welcome:

#1 Is the Apache Derby version of the schema ready for inclusion in  
the release (i.e., should it be tested more thoroughly than it has  
been at the hackathon? I'm assuming it has been instantiated there?)

#2 Does anyone know whether there is a risk of the HSQLDB version not  
working on current releases of HSQLDB (HyperSonic)? Has anyone tested  
this recently, or can someone on the list make this test (i.e.,  
instantiate the schema on HSQLDB and see what happens)?

Cheers,

	-hilmar
