When is v0.5 being released ? Would it be significant refactor ? #172

Due to GLUE leaderboard I stumbled upon this framework. This is really useful framework.

I am planning to use it for my projects but I wonder whether I should wait for 0.5 to release first or I can start with 0.4 and later upgrade easily to 0.5 ?

Glad to hear you've got ideas for the framework! v0.4 does have support for MTL and there's a tutorial showing how to use it. But the upgrade to v0.5 is very significant; it was a total rewrite from scratch to make sure that there was complete decoupling of data/labels/models/metrics. We're still on track for v0.5 to be released by the end of this month, so another week or two tops. Stay tuned!

Hi @shishircc — we've brought the best of MeTaL into the latest v0.9 release of Snorkel! The GenerativeModel has been refactored into the LabelModel of Snorkel, which now supports multiclass labeling, and EndModel has been refactored into MultitaskClassifier.

We also have tutorials to reproduce our results in the application repo, https://github.com/HazyResearch/snorkel-superglue.

Check it out, and feel free to open any issues in the corresponding repositories if you have follow-up questions!
