In order to get Excalibur Component out the door, which shares many of the utils that Fortress uses, we need to get the following projects released immediately following Framework:
Instrument Instrument-Manager Logger Pool i18n AltRMI So far, Pool, I18N, and Logger have been released before. Instrument and Instrument Manager are both things that need an initial release. We have a soft dependency on AltRMI, so we can opt to push that release later if necessary. Paul how do you feel about getting an AltRMI release out? That's everything for Component (AKA ECM). We cannot mark Component as deprecated until Fortress is released. When Fortress is released, we should also release a new ECM where all the classes are deprecated in favor of the Fortress version. We should also put out one last fully deprecated release of Excalibur Concurrent and Excalibur Collections. Those JARs will be there to provide binary compatibility for folks like Cocoon who have clients that have been using the old stuff. The fully deprecated version motivates them to use the properly maintained libraries. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
