Speaking more for an organization that works with a lot of external parties using Cassandra
(that don't necessarily develop on it), I think the pivot to 1.0 makes better sense. A lot
of the world is still coming to know Cassandra vs. any other NoSQL type solution. In that
environment, I think the production grade validation is important.
to the point below... I'd submit that sometimes you jump for 8.0 to 10.0. Then we just move
the decimal.
Really- I'm sure that groups can make the shift and get it.
+1 to Jonathan's original suggestion.
