Actions
-
Jenkins Builds
Builds broken so SNAPSHOTs no longer recent (causing PRs to not be checked):
-
GeoTools Java 11 builds broken? Random one each time …
-
GeoTools PostGIS builds broken? Seems to be an already existing database
causing setup failure
Out of disk space:
-
100% full
-
docker builds are taking up a lot of space
-
Torben to try the “monthly” docker cleanup job, and perhaps run weekly
-
Cleanup job reclaimed 60 G, updated to run weekly instead
PostGIS build failure
-
Setup message unable to create index (but tests drops it beforehand so
why failure?)
-
Dropping table before creating here

AGM Slides/Video
GeoServer Done
GeoTools Jody will record something quick
Release Candidate
Scheduled for 2021-09-04, anything pending?
-
remove ingres datastore, etc…
-
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/3619
-
check: Update docs to reflect removing GTOPO30 etc...
Java 17
LTS expected mid September, so in time for foss4g / agm
-
Bjorn is checking it out <https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/3612>
(using release candidate) and also in GeoServer
<https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/5248>
-
Compiler java 8 runtime, then when running java 17 does not complain
-
Compiler to java 17, then java 17 fails correctly
-
cglib: It is all fun and game until someone generates a class
-
wicket here also:
-
xstream: is not supposed to work in Java 17
<https://github.com/x-stream/xstream/issues/101> (due to direct field
access)
-
JAI, Jai-ext and imageio-ext might be in trouble due to com.sun package
usage in imports
It is our goal to support LTS releases, but this may take some time /
funding / enthusiasm. Given the technical challenges some group effort may
be required.
Might need to drop Java 8 support because of API changes.
-
This would also indicate a change from J2EE to Jakarta, Tomcat 10, etc...
Bug fix code sprint
We have not been doing monthly bug stomp, amount of time to takes to
address bug is not suitable for non trivial issues.
-
Can we run bi-monthly, for 2 days …
-
Idea: Can we run a week before the release? Usually the 18th of the
month ....
CITE sprint october planning
Decision was made in the spring to plan for October, would like to announce
and setup sponsorship for foss4g, for an October sprint activity.
-
Format one day a week, easier to schedule
-
Cost recovery model, similar to geonetwork sprints
-
To participate set up cite docker env on your machine first, we do
not want to take time to sprint time setting folks up.
