Public release checklist

[jspahrsummers]

• Reach out to CocoaPods folks ahead of time
• Tease about Carthage on Twitter, prior to opening it up
• Publish GitHub release, along with a pkg installer
• Change repo tagline
• Dark ship the org (make everything public, with no announcement)
• Actually, officially announce everything

@Carthage/owners I would like to resolve #71 and #76, then I think we can dark ship the repo. What do you think?

I think we should look everything over before dark shipping. You only get one first impression. ☺️

Would it be (im)politic to work with the maintainers of major libs (Moya, Alamofire, Quick/Nimble) to ensure it "just works" out of the box?

[tonyarnold]

No, absolutely not. I say go for it.

@mdiep What does it mean to “look everything over?” Fix all the bugs in the milestone?

I would certainly like to dark ship before we have everything tightened up. I'm tired of working behind closed doors.

@swizzlr I like this idea, but I think it should wait until we've publicized the repo. We'll probably have to, in order to submit the appropriate PRs anyways.

[swizzlr]

Since I do like this idea I will privately try to prepare some patches, if necessary, that I can open as PRs when you release.

Yolo. (for real).

Released version 0.1 to get a feel for the process, and demonstrate the new installer.

We can increase the version number once the milestone is actually complete and we're 100% ready to be vocal about Carthage to the world.

[ashfurrow]

@swizzlr I'm touched that you consider Moya a major repo.

[jspahrsummers]

@Carthage/owners I would like to make this repo public tomorrow. Speak now or forever hold your peace.

@Carthage/carthage All of the outstanding issues in the milestone have been fixed, and tagged in 0.2. How does everyone feel about starting to announce the project?

Make it so!
