Hi,
Here are some thoughts on how to achieve a better transparency for
both Geronimo 'users' and Geronimo 'developers':
1. Create a Wiki page 'future plans' (or similar) where a rough
release time frame, new features, deliverables, compatibility with
earlier versions etc. are listed (like: http://www.eclipse.org/org/
councils/PC/platform/eclipse_project_plan_3_2_2005_02_14.html).
This is targeted at interested Geronimo users, IT managers etc.
2. Add a 'Road Map' link to the Geronimo Jira where the release
version (eg. 'M4') lists all open (and fixed) issues as well as a
release date together with a progress bar for this release.
(something like the JBoss Jira offers: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/
browse/JBAS?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-
panel)
We are trying to get this together - we have a pile of features that
we're trying to prioritize. It's on our website as well as poasted
to this list.
I think this could provide a 'bridge' between the Geronimo
development community and the outside world. Also, it would
demonstrate that the community is alive, which is a little
untransparent if you don't subscribe to the dev-list.
Thoughts?
Good ideas :) Wanna help?
