Do not hesitate to relase your code early. This is one of  the  basic
ideas  of  Open  Source  development,  and  a  source  of huge mutual
benefit: first, a duplication of effort may  result,  as  others  can
pick  up your results early instead of starting the same project just
because they  didn't  know  about  yours;  second,  you  may  receive
feedback  which  helps  you  to solve or avoid problems or to improve
your code.

The good old rule is: release early, release often.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

In the beginning there was nothing.
And the Lord said "Let There Be Light!"
And still there was nothing, but at least now you could see it.
