Joe, you mentioned TCK and our ability to make 2.0.2 available by
9/21. I have a question for the team about that. I would like
to bump Geronimo's version of MyFaces from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1 since
that new release contains several bug fixes, some of them actually
found and reported by Geronimo users. But doing that could affect
Geronimo's TCK results and affect the 9/21 delivery date. I
would imagine that the same is true for other dependencies. Are
we OK with picking up maintenance releases of Geronimo
dependencies in 2.0.2 even if we think TCK issues could slow us
down? Or should we keep 2.0.2 focused on "localized" changes and
only bump the dependency versions in Geronimo 2.1 so we have more
time to deal any resulting TCK issues?
I think it makes sense to move to the latest version of the
Geronimo dependencies. However, it probably makes sense to
validate areas in the TCK that may be impacted prior to the change
or soon there-after in case there are issues that need to be
resolve which might impact our ability to deliver in a timely manner.
OK thanks Joe (and Kevan). Just wanted to make sure that overall as
a team we agree that it's OK to introduce changes that could affect
the proposed 9/21 date due to TCK issues. We can always back those
changes out if we decide to, of course.
Best wishes,
Paul
