Cascading 1.1 User Guide Draft

[Chris K Wensel]

Hey all

Uploaded a draft of the 1.1 user guide last night. It can be found here:
http://www.cascading.org/documentation/userguide.html

Please take a look and send me comments.

Also WIP 1.1 is roughly feature complete. Still some logistic and packaging issues before I issue a Release Candidate.

cheers,
chris

I'll spend some time today reading through the User Guide.

It would be nice if the naming convention for the jars could be
changed to be Maven-compatible, ie

cascading-(core|test)-<version>[-<build>].jar

e.g.

cascading-core-1.1-WIP-116.jar

Thanks,

ok, how's this?

for major version pre-release builds
> cascading-core-1.2-wip-<build-num>.jar

for pre-release maintenance builds
> cascading-core-1.1.0-wip-12345.jar

for final maintenance builds
> cascading-core-1.1.0.jar

I think you want your build numbers to be consistent between all types of releases - always have the full x.y.z in cascading-[component]-x.y.z.

Check out http://semver.org/ for "the right way".

[Chris K Wensel]

well, wips aren't releases. but alpha/beta works in progress (think of them as nightlies)  and won't be available from the community site directly to prevent confusion.

some projects may need to rely on the wip, but it makes sense they are clearly marked as such (wip-bbbb).

only public releases avail via the community site will have x.y.z versioning at the package and jar levels.

should that work?
