Here's what I propose is the release plan and which I would appreciate your views on:
Two blocks of release candidates that we vote over. First one should be quite straight forward. First block: taverna-maven-parent 2-incubating taverna-language 0.15.1-incubating taverna-osgi 0.2.1-incubating Second block: taverna-engine 3.1.0-incubating taverna-common-activities 2.1.0-incubating taverna-commandline 3.1.0-incubating I think the first block should be ready to go already, so as pointed out by Gale I don't think there's any reason to wait before making a release candidate here - so I'll try to do so tomorrow. The first block should also be easier for the mentors to review - taverna-language is just an update (but adding wfdesc and tavlang) - while taverna-osgi is pretty much dependency free and very IP-clean as the code was brand new for Taverna 3. Basically the first block is support libraries for the second block - but could also be used independently. The second block might still need some IP review - I think the rat check is not happy with everything in taverna-engine yet. There might still be a tiny bit of work needed on the README files here to explain how it's all connected together. Functionality-wise the second block is also ready to be released, it's all compiling and passing tests. We have not yet done any integration testing here, it would be good to know which workflows we know can run (or not) before we announce the commandline - which basically includes So the second block would take a month or two more before it's ready. It could be that to accelerate the 3.1.0 release we do not yet want to include the command line binary *distribution* (the one with the massive lib/ folder) -- as that could complicate the work on required LICENSE and NOTICE file. Early adapters should probably be OK to compile for themselves (which would basically pull from Maven Central) - they would then get a copy of that distribution folder on their own machine.
