RELEASE Scylla 1.0

The Scylla team is pleased to announce the release of Scylla 1.0 (GA), the first production ready Scylla release. Scylla is an open source, Apache-Cassandra-compatible NoSQL database, with superior performance and consistent low latency.

From now own, only critical bugs (showstoppers) will be fixed in branch-1.0.x. We will continue to fix bugs and add feature on the master branch toward 1.1 and beyond. Followup minor releases (1.1, 1.2 etc) will be timed-base releases at the end of each month; Scylla 1.1 due date is end of April.

Release 1.0 does not add new functionality to RC2, only showstopper bugs was fixed. A full list of contributions below.
