Subject: [RELEASE CANDIDATE] Apache Cassandra 1.0.0-rc1 released
To: user@cassandra.apache.org
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

The Cassandra team is pleased to announce the release of the first release
candidate for the future Apache Cassandra 1.0.

The warnings first: this is *not* the final release and hence should not be
considered ready for production use just yet. However, unless major regression
are found in the test of this release candidate, the final release should be
very similar to this RC.

Your help in testing this release candidate will be highly appreciated and
while doing so, please report any problem you may encounter[3,4]. The changes
since the beta1 can be found in the change log[1] and see the release notes[2]
to find what Cassandra 1.0 is made of.

Apache Cassandra 1.0.0-rc1[5] is available as usual from the cassandra
website:

 http://cassandra.apache.org/download/

Thank you for your help in testing and have fun with it, Cassandra 1.0 is
right around the corner!
