[spambayes-dev] 1.1b1?

[skip at pobox.com]

Anyone think it's about time for a beta release?  I'll be out of town this
weekend, but will try to put one together when I return.  Maybe a release
schedule like this:

    1.1b1     July 11
    1.1b2     July 25 (if necessary)
    1.1rc1    August 1
    1.1final  August 8

?  Given that the bulk of the users are Outlook users I think we should try
and recruit a few extra people to put it through its paces.  In particular,
getting some Outlook 2007 and Vista users to use it would be good I think.
That means Mark's or Tony's availability to create Outlook installers is key
to all these dates.

Ideally, I'd like to get the new core_server.py and sb_server.py merged back
together, but that will require extracting the POP3 bits from sb_server.py
into a plugin for core_server.py then renaming core_server.py to
sb_server.py.  I'm not sure I'll have the time to do the POP3 plugin, so
that will probably have to wait until 1.2 if we are to ever get a 1.1
release out.
