Hello Kelvin,
Thank you for the stoke.
@Everyone: Kelvin and his colleague Todd Moore are the people who got the ball rolling to get TinkerPop into the Apache Software Foundation.
@Kelvin: By "1.0," I suspect you mean TinkerPop3 GA?. If so, the plan is by the end of this month. Current development on master/ is primarily optimizations, testing, and documentation at this point. All of our GA tickets in JIRA were completed in the M9 release. As such, we hope to do 1 or 2 dev@ RC releases so the vendors can give the thumbs up and when they are happy --- release. Of course, the release process takes ~10 days to flow through the VOTE process.
HTH,
Marko.
