  • Must add "incubation" to the version and the bundle name
  • Will all try to use the same naming patterns
    • Name of milestone downloadable subproject files will be: gemini-<subproject>-<ReleaseVersion>-M<milestone#>-incubation
  • Simple setup info can be placed on the wiki (with an optional readme file to direct people to the wiki)
  • Should each try to make sure that the milestone of our subproject works with the current milestones other Gemini subprojects
  • No requirements for actually distributing the source (or anything else) in the downloadable milestone
