Is there a target date for release of 1.0 or any indicative timeframe ? ---

Hi @gearoidibm, Thanks for the question - we are currently in Alpha 2 and working on releasing a beta in the short term. After a beta release we will target a 1.0.0 GA release, but cannot comment on timelines at the moment. ---

Thanks for the info. Once you go to Beta will that include backward compatibility and transparent migration to 1.0.0 (GA) or should we plan/expect the deal with incompatibilities up until 1.0.0 ? ---
