Freeman,

My plan was to avoid re-releasing components and just keep on using the
2011.02 release for the 4.4.x releases.  Of course, if there are
urgent/critical issues with that release we can still create a maintenance
branch for the components as well, but otherwise I'd keep the bug
fixes/improvements/... for the 2012.01 release and only upgrade the CXF,
Camel, ActiveMQ and Karaf releases inside the features project.

This way, we can deliver a big deal of the value (i.e. the bug fix upgrade
for camel, cxf & co) without having to do a lot of extra work for this
release series.

Wdyt?

Hi Gert,

Just one thing.

We probably still need another new branch for JBI components project.
As upgrade from CXF 2.4.x to CXF 2.5.x and from Camel 2.8.x to Camel 2.9.x
has api changes and hence lots of files in servicemix-cxf and
servicemix-camel need be updated also, so we can't use same branch to
maintain both CXF2.5.x/Camel2.9.x and CXF2.4.x/Camel2.8.x.
I suggest we create a new JBI components branch from release tag, where we
can keep on CXF2.4.x/Camel 2.8.x path and other fixes(this is for
Servicemix 4.4.x), and on the JBI components trunk we can upgrade to CXF
2.5.x, Camel 2.9.x, ActiveMQ, 5.6.x(this is for Servicemix 4.5.0).

Just my 0.02.

Best Regards
Freeman

L.S.,


We have a few more hours to go in the Apache ServiceMix 4.4.0 release
vote,
but unless something pops up last minute, we should have ourselves a brand new ServiceMix release this evening, so it would be good to start thinking
about the next releases and make up a plan for those.

My proposal would be to schedule 2 upcoming release over the next few
months: ServiceMix 4.4.1 and ServiceMix 4.5.0.

For ServiceMix 4.4.1, I would like to create a features-4.4.x branch from the current release tag that we can use to upgrade to new minor versions
of
CXF, Camel, Karaf and ActiveMQ.  There already is a CXF 2.4.5 at the
moment
and there will no doubt be a Camel 2.8.4 some time as well. With all the work we did to make our builds more self-contained, it should be possible to upgrade to those new versions without having to recut all the other
projects.  If we encounter any packaging issue we can solve in the
features
build, we can obviously fix those as well but I think we should try to avoid creating branches for everything else (like nmr, components, ...)
for
this release to keep the maintenance effort reasonable. We should be able to schedule the 4.4.1 (or any subsequent 4.4.x) release any time we see a
substantial new release from those dependencies.

In the trunks, I would propose to start working towards ServiceMix 4.5.0, where the plan is to upgrade to the new minor version of our favorite
dependencies: CXF 2.5.x, Camel 2.9.x, ActiveMQ, 5.6.x, ...  In the
meanwhile, we can obviously also fix some of the outstanding issues that
were deferred over the last few weeks but I think we should focus on
getting this new release out within a few weeks of the availability of
those new CXF/Camel/ActiveMQ/... release.   A common question on the
mailing today is 'how can I upgrade ServiceMix to Camel version x or CXF
version y' and I think it would be very good if we can answer that
question
with 'you'll get a new release with those version in a few weeks' ;)
