Any plan when this will get released?

[dacarley]

Could we get an update to the README.md that explains how to effectively install the web3 beta using Yarn? A common answer is "just use npm", but given the way that some teams CI/CD process works, that's not a particularly viable option.

Is it understood what is causing the issue in the first place? I'd be happy to contribute, if someone can explain what they know of the issue.

In issue #1121 there are reports that current beta version has some problems with react-redux-typescript-boilerplate and create-react-native-app boilerplates. Please, take a look at these problems before branching final 1.0 version...

The above 4 lines should have annotated return types (: void).

(Sorry for the drive-by comment, just tried to build this branch and got some errors with the latest TypeScript in strict mode. There were others too.)

I don't think we really want to merge it into the develop branch. I really like the way how angular is managing his branches. https://github.com/angular/angular

When is it planned to release stable 1.0 version?

[nivida]

I've closed this PR because the 1.0 branch is the default branch and the develop branch will get removed on the stable release.

@nivida When will 1.0 become stable?
