[FLOW3-general] Your feedback – what's missing for FLOW3 1.0 beta?

I just wanted to bring up concerns, because imho people haven't been 
able to work with FLOW3 "undisturbed" in the last weeks. They had no 
chance to consolidate their own knowledge of FLOW3 (with Doctrine2,...). 
And thus asking for "final features" and kicking out that beta is imho 
just too early. Therefore it seems to me that it's just some stupid 
politics (why?) which cause this beta release - that's why I said that 
having it prooves nothing.

But anyway, didn't want to start a flamewar and I'd still like to know 
what the schedule for the beta is?

Cheers,
Tolleiv
