Hi Jason,

Hi,
After chatting with Lukas and Vincent on IRC I think if we want to continue
with changes to Doxia then we should release the 1.0 for the site plugin and
move on.
I know that changes Vincent Massol would like to make are important, and I
have started to fully decouple the site notions from the core of doxia. Move
it toward a set of parsers and sinks. Let client code deal with sites,
parser managers, sink managers and whatever else. Tools like the macro
manager can also be added in a more flexible way where those tools are
plugins to the system.
DEFINITELY agree on that! I have in mind a plugin way for macro things.
So how about we release 1.0 and then hack away on the future?
Always agree on it but IMHO we need to follow our process, i.e. beta-1
soon and 1.0. Beta-1 seems very easy to make according Jira and 1.0 is
mainly about schema or DTD.
After that, we need to support correctly the site-plugin and thus
release it as 2.0. Same things for PIR. I don't think there is any
rush to release Doxia. After all, Doxia has around 3 years of alpha ;)
Finally, I will be confident to start on Doxia 2.0 :)
Here's what I'd like to do:
- Release a last 1.0-alpha of Doxia, from the alpha branch
- Update the Site plugin to use that released alpha of Doxia
- Release maven-doxia-tools 1.0 and use that in the Site plugin
- Release Site plugin 2.0-beta-7, moving the other issues slated for
beta-7 to beta-8
- Switch the Site plugin (2.0-beta-8-SNAPSHOT) over to use Doxia beta-1
SNAPSHOT
- Release Doxia beta-1
- Release Site plugin beta-8 using Doxia beta-1
- Start collecting a list of issues that blocks a Doxia 1.0 release
- Push that list down to 0
- Release Doxia 1.0
- Release Site plugin 2.0
The beta-7 release of the Site plugin is to make the releases smaller.
Currently beta-7 already has 17 issues fixed.
I'm volunteering to do the Doxia alpha release and all the Site plugin
releases.
We also need someone to release maven-doxia-tools (a shared component)
and Doxia beta-1 and 1.0.
Cheers,
Vincent
Thanks,
Jason
