Release managers
----------------

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Release-Schedule

Volunteers:

- 2.8 beta - Jody
- 2.6.5 last - Jody / Victoria Office

Email discussion about "bonus" releases with other projects.

GeoNode will want to release a 2.7.x sometime in the beginning 
september. Use a bit of common sense, don't release too close to an 
official release of the same version.

Code Freeze
-----------

August 18th.

Jody will remind the GeoTools email list.
Andrea will remind the GeoTools email list.

Anything else we are desprately waiting for something to get in?
- AA: shapefile thing that broken? DBF filter pull request ...
- KS: LayerGroup proposal (if there is time ...). Could we do the API 
change now? And do the implementation later ...

Proposals
---------

Which ones are are trying to make the code freeze? Assume all of them ...

GeoTools:
- Constrast enhancement: some feedback on API breakage, see email 
discussion.
- z-ordering: Q: FeatureType.getSortBy() vs. vendor option? A: keep 
consistent, non SLD options go in vendor options.
- SourceForge exit strategy: keep this around if needed later
- Resolve GeoAPI 3.0.0 Incompatibilities: no interested sponsor for this 
work
- Views Management removal: was this implemented?
- Maven Central: think this is stuck on JAI dependency
- Add delete support on StructuredGridCoverage2DReader: has this been 
implemented?
- ComplexFeature Parsing and Building Support by Adam Brown. This is 
used in wfs-ng. Rini worked on it last year. Niels completed work on it 
this year, and Ben merged the final PR in May (should announce for 
GeoTools master 14-M1; was in 14-M0 but unannounced). Jira issue is 
resolved. Just need to update the proposal page [DONE].
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/wiki/complexfeature-parsing-and-building-support
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/841
https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOT-4147

GeoServer:

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Proposals

- dev guide cleanup: approved, in progress
- layergroup: approved, kevin is busy

New community modules created, rest are in progressed.

WCS 1.1 DescribeCoverage/GetCapabilities Question
-------------------------------------------------

Jody volunteered to test (was hoping to test gsconfig).

https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-7039
    * Ask about this for bart.
    * Q: If we include the prefix will we break everything? A: Check the 
naming rules in the spec. Perhaps use

https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-6984
    * monitoring is a bit orphaned
    * Q: Should this go to community? A: the monitoring api is in active 
so we keep it in the mix. Audit mode generates files ...
    * The hibernate module is more a proof of concept - so it could go 
to community.

CITE
----

Thanks for the email Andrea, look at setting up jobs on ares.
Yes we do not expect things to pass yet.

Check back after the code freeze :)

Remote execution vulnerability follow-up
----------------------------------------

Merged. Kevin reports that the nightly is not building cleanly so we 
cannot test a nightly.

Action:
- Jody is going to test gsconfig, and will reach out to gsconfig community.
- Kevin wants to backport to 2.7 - and will get a bunch of QA from 
boundless.
- GEOS-7139 JBoss security fix conflict: Torben has a potential fix 
incoming. Q: Does Commons VFS also respond to this protocol? Q: 
gs-importer includes Commons VFS. Does this open up a tomcat server to 
vfs URLs?
