Open issues bound to 3.4.0
* Introduction of model version 4.1.0.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6082
assignee: Christian Schulte (reporter: Christian Schulte)
* Document how to configure Gossip
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6044
assignee: - (reporter: Michael Osipov)
* Document Jansi's native support limitation
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6045
assignee: - (reporter: Michael Osipov)
* after forked execution success, add an empty line
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6088
assignee: Hervé Boutemy (reporter: Hervé Boutemy)
* Introduce maven.conf in m2.conf
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6102
assignee: Michael Osipov (reporter: Michael Osipov)
Assignees and reporter are all Maven teammembers, so they should all be
able to either fix it or push it to a next version.
My biggest concerns are about the changed behavior of dependency
resolution regarding dependency management which will break backwards
compatibility:
* Imported dependencies should be available to inheritance processing
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5971
Based on the comment there are projects which will break due to this
change.
* Increase the model validation level to the next minor level version.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6075
Jira issue is missing an explicit list of the changes and a link the the
revision.
* Make 'optional' flag of a dependency manageable.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5227
There are more changes done, but from what I can see those should be safe.
IMHO these changes have too much impact for a 3.4 and I think we can fix
them with the introduction of the PDT file.
We should indeed start with release candidates and set a date until we
expect feedback (e.g +15 days). Any negative response should be
investigated and if it is valid it should be fixed and the release
candidate process should starts over again asap. This way we should be
able to push a new solid version out this year.
thanks,
Robert
