How about getting an initial tiles release out so that the 2.0.2 tiles
plugin can rely upon it instead of a snapshot? It would probably only be
'alpha' quality at this point, but the same snapshot logic that you
described below applies to it.
I'll do the release (prior to the weekend), if someone that's done one
before will help me through it.
Tiles 2 is in the sandbox, and sandbox projects are not allowed to do
releases. Choosing a particular snapshot for Struts 2 to depend on is
all we can do, unless we change the rules.
Ok, thanks for clarifying.
If Tiles is ready to graduate, then we need to decide where it's going
to live. Top level? Over at Jakarta, or wasn't there some sort of
'web components' project being started?
Are these the only two options? My fear with both of them (a top level
project or the 'seed' project for a new web components project at
jakarta) would be lack of community due to the fact that there seem to
be just a few active committers interested in tiles right now. Jakarta
would be an option, though their recent trend seems to be graduating
projects to TLP - not accepting new projects.
Is it possible for tiles2 to 'graduate' into a full struts project
(sibling of struts1 and struts2) until it gains a little more momentum?
The idea would be to allow tiles to leverage the
participation/oversight that's allready here? This seems to make
sense since I would guess that the vast majority of tiles users are
using it in conjunction with one version of struts or another.
Also, what warrants graduation from the sandbox? A we assuming the same
requirements as graduating a project from the incubator? My assessment
at this point is that tiles has come a long way and is ready to be
pushed out to the masses in order to allow them to play. I'd like to
'release early/release often'.
Thoughts?
