<p>Dear contributors and users,</p>
<p>In the last year there have been so many changes to intelmq and
now we are well on the way towards a stable release.<br>
</p>
<p>We propose to make <b>Feature Freeze</b> <b>and</b> a <b>first
release candidate in October</b> so we can focus on heavy
testing and bug fixing.<br>
This is also the starting point for a better branching strategy:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/certtools/intelmq/issues/650">https://github.com/certtools/intelmq/issues/650</a></p>
<p>Then, when all issues are fixed, we can do the release of version
1.0.<br>
</p>
<p>Also, we plan to publish packages for some distributions, .deb as
well as rpm. Currently there are still some open questions. But
the installation via pip will be no longer the recommended for
production environments.<br>
</p>
<p>To help, you can look at the open issues for 1.0:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/certtools/intelmq/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22v1.0+Stable+Release%22">https://github.com/certtools/intelmq/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22v1.0+Stable+Release%22</a><br>
Tough I am assigned to most of them, you are encouraged to
comment, review or fix some of the tasks listed there!</p>
<p>The intelmq-manager needs some work to get partially compatible
and *much work* to get it "release-ready", basically a complete
rewrite. See
