Image module 6.x-1.0 is happening!
If you are going to be at DrupalCon Paris and you have an interest in this module, in getting a 6.x-1.0 release out of the door, and in this project's path towards integration with imagefield/CCK, then please come to the Image code sprint.
The tentative plan is:
- file patches, test patches, commit patches in the lead up to conference
- day 1 of sprinting: commit patches and release 6.x-1.0-RC1
- last day of conference: address any issues filed on the RC and make a full release.
See http://paris2009.drupalcon.org/forum/image-10 for updates on dates, times, locations.
If you aren't at conference, please help out on IRC or in the issue queue.
If you don't have the skills to code or test patches, please try the RC when it is released and report problems.
This module has been stuck on betas for over a year now, so I am making this happen whatever the situation -- patches will get committed if they block release (see http://drupal.org/node/486546 for the list). The 1.0 will be released on time, in whatever state the code is on that day!
