uDig problems with Boundless Maven repository
---------------------------------------------

- Should be solved
   - Original repo failed in september
   - Http redirect and http proxy pointing to artifactoryonline did not 
work out as replacement
   - Now repo.boundlessgeo.com/main DNS changed to directly reference 
artifactory online
- uDig repo may not yet have been restored?

ResourceStore API migration
---------------------------

Here is the wiki page:
* 
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Cleaning%20up%20File%20References

https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/1346
https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pull/354

- This is not a new proposal, it is the "second half" of the proposal
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-106
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/ResourceStore-API-Examples

- Large pull request exceeds GitHub limits, last 57 files show no 
changes (so look at individual commits!)
- GitHub support apologise, plan to implement a warning notice

Niels:
- This can use extra testing during review/merge (request a couple of 
hours testing before merge)
- Or apply to master and ask for nightly-build testing
- Include in a milestone? Yes.

Discussion:
- Jody: Consider testing this with new version of spring / jetty?
- Ian: how to tell what caused failure?
- Niels: no more pending changes - this is good to go
- Resolution of base directory access question? Via GeoServerResourceLoader.

Q: try-with-resource syntax? Could not fix for rest module due to 
pom.xml setting. A: fix it!
Q: Ben can you review and merge? A: yes!

Jetty / Spring version upgrade
------------------------------

Spring appears low risk:
- applied to master, low-risk to backport.

Jetty requires testing:
- Boundless uses Jetty 7.6.13.v20130916 (we jumping to 9.2 so it does 
not help)
- Jody will volunteer to make a milestone release. Send to user list.
- After testing of milestone, we can make decision about backport

Q: Do we know Justin's timeframe? Ask on mailing list ...

Java 8
------

Ben++!!!
Volunteers to switch the codebase to java 8.

Action:[Kevin] Confirm ares has OpenJDK and Oracle Java 8?

Warning: build times with java 8 are slower ...

Release Schedule
----------------

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

Ian volunteers for 2015-12-18 GeoTools 13.5 / GeoServer 2.7.5.

Pull requests
-------------

https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/1051
- waiting on feedback :)

https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/1057
- having some trouble communicating design with ahuarte47, fixes in 
isolation address the specific issue, but break the larger design (for 
example loading features into memory to count). Continue reviewing pull 
request, consider breakout IRC meeting if needed.
