Checklist for Ember 1.13+ (Glimmer) Support and usurping ember-list-view

[mansona]

I am creating this as per the discussions that are found on this thread: emberjs/list-view#245 (comment) if anyone wants me to add anything to the checklist just comment and I will do my best to keep up with what needs to be done.

Documentation:

• update list-view documentation to point to ember-collection
• update readme to reflect the reason for the new change
• document new features in the new implementation i.e. cell-layout
• document the upgrade path for people using ember-list-view

Implementation:

• upgrade tests and make sure they are all passing
• ???

Release:

• Release first beta version so people can test the current implementation
• decide if we are releasing a 1.13 release version in line with the new "same version" policy in ember

We've decided to commit to supporting 1.13. In particular, we will backport fixes to 1.13 if necessary (or inline the fix if its minor). See #7.

I just submitted a PR to the list-view README to point to ember-collection. emberjs/list-view#252

Do we have an ETA as to when this will be published?

[rwjblue]

Yep. It will be released very shortly after it is ready. 😺

[calebrosario]

Any updates?

@mansona I'd love to start working on the documentation. If you -- and hopefully others -- are willing to answer lots of noob questions, I'll write them into the documentation so you don't have to answer them twice :-)

@rwjblue first of all, thanks for your efforts and your awesome contributions to open source projects. I wanted to ask if there are any updates and when ember-collection is ready? Right now I would need such functionality and I question myself if I should wait or if I should implement a solution myself

[mansona]

"ready" can sometimes be such a strong word 😂 I'm currently using this and it is working fine for me, the real thing it's lacking is documentation. I figured out what I needed it to do from the source and I reckon fresh eyes with a day of hacking at the source and trying to get it to work for a few use cases could come up with some seriously nice documentation. I, unfortunately, cannot commit to this right now

[tschoartschi]

@mansona you are right, the word "ready" can be missleading. I just asked because the last release was on 15.9.2015 and has alpha in the version name (v1.0.0-alpha.4). I'm always a little bit cautious when using an alpha version in a production app. But I'll give it a quick try and see how it behaves.
