The results are in! We had a good number of respondents, and the results are quite clear. Last night I spent a few hours tallying the results and analyzing them. There was a very clean ordering from the most popular to the least. Additionally, the features clearly fell into categories. Top --- These features were easily visually separated from the others. They tended to have a lot of #1 ranking and almost no low rankings. Additionally, these are the most clearly defined, have several people working on them, and are already mostly complete. This the feature set that will define the 1.2 release. Full Java 5 support (really is certification on Java 5) - Dain, Jencks and Rick OpenJPA integration - Blevins and Jencks Yoko ORB support - Rick and Jencks Global JNDI - Dain and Jencks Some support ------------ These features had a few very few 1-2 rankings, but many 3-5 rankings. Additionally, the also had a a few lower half rankings. Additionally, "Console usability improvements" and "More server modularization via plugins" are improvements and not features. I do not believe that anyone is working in "Console extensibility" or "OpenEJB 3.0 integration with @Stateless" with an eye for inclusion in 1.2 and these features are likely to be quite destabilizing. Therefor, they will not be included in the 1.2 release. Console usability improvements Console extensibility More server modularization via plugins OpenEJB 3.0 integration with @Stateless Little Support -------------- These features had a small amount of support noted buy a single vote for a top 3 ranking, and normally a supporting vote for a top 5 ranking (except CMP which only had a single #2 vote). Therefor, I think these features are best demonstrated via a plugin or branch to gather more support before they are included in any release. More out of the box samples Geronimo OSGi bundle GShell integration CMP improvements No Support ---------- These features had no rankings in the top half (1-7). JAF 1.1 Jetspeed integration -dain.
