Quoting "Allen S. Rout"
darcs is a _D_vcs, right?
So if The Community has wanted a new release for two years, then what is preventing someone from saying "FINE! I call 0.99, _here_"?
Is there some official possession of credentials that is at issue?
Quoting "Jochen Keil"
Sure, but why isn't it happening? :) What's keeping everyone from releasing the long debated (there were some mails a few weeks ago..) 1.0 version? I mean it can't be too hard to tag 1.0 in darcs and build a tarball.
The current de-facto maintainer seems to be Adam Vogt (aavogt in #xmonad). He told me yesterday that he's ready to make a release; the only holdup right now is that he does not have write access to xmonad.org nor control of the xmonad Twitter feed. The latter seems unimportant to me, but making a release and not publishing it on xmonad.org seems suboptimal. I've contacted the previous maintainer on Adam's behalf requesting control of the website, but haven't gotten a response yet. ~d
