Hi,
I am having a look at http://wiki.apache.org/ant/Ant17/Planning
We are still on the step "finding a release manager"
Do we have any candidates ?
I'm tempted to do it but can't as I am three chapters out from
finishing the text of the book, then its all the other stuff with
updating it.
not only would being the release manager add extra workload, it'd
lead to conflict of interest (i'd be against anything inconsistent
with the book text, see)
I'm starting to feel confident enough to do it except for the
potential amount of extra work it may include (hope that nothing
happens at work to suddenly bog me down)
I should be able to pull some work time to help with functioanl
testing on odd platforms, as its interesting enough to qualify as a
bit of research. I have a vmware image of win98 that we could put
java1.2 on, and could set up on another vmware system (linux,
probably), luntbuild to do continuous integration on the release
branch. This would be an interesting exercise in the runup to release.
Having a vmware image setup for the testing would be a great
contribution - I doubt anyone would willingly work on win98 with
jdk1.2, so I think your vmware image is the only way that combination
will be tested :)
thanks
Kev
