Subject: Re: [VOTE] Release Overview Proposal 2
1) Release 1.2.11 with JMS build fix. Timeframe is immediate,
within the
next week.
+1
2) Release a 1.2.12 version with the TRACE change. I think we
should
consider only major bug fixes for inclusion as well, but keep it
within
reason. Timeframe is within a month of the 1.2.11 release.
Specific bugs that have been recommended, but not reviewed are:
31056
17862
23705
24159
26345
26433
30838
31727
33827
I only have a problem with 3 of these:
17862 - Version.getVersion() - this is a new feature, I'm not sure we
should expend resources on this for a . release. Having said that it
sounds pretty easy, but if we do decide to do this, leave it till
last as an optional one.
24159 - Deadlock prevention - I appreciate the intent of trying to
solve this curly one, but it's going to be a tough one to test and
get right. Just flagging this one has a high risk item.
33827 - this is a 1.3 feature and I don't think can be back ported ?
Am I missing something?
TBD: final set of bug fixes to include (Owners: Mark, Curt, ??).
We should
not take more than a week to hash this out.
3) Release a 1.3 version based on the current main branch. We can
discuss
if we want to change the version to 1.5/2.0, but I think we should
stick
with 1.3 for now. Timeframe: release of first final version by
10/2005.
TBD: determine final set of tasks and release target dates (Owner:
Mark).
This sounds good. +1
We can work on 1.2.12 and 1.3 in parallel. There won't be that
much overlap
time.
Paul, when you have a chance, would you be willing to do a jDiff
report
against the 1.2.x code and the current cvs main? That might help
us in
deciding on what we want to call the next major version, and it
will be
useful for the user base to see what has changed. Maybe we can add
it as a
target in the build file?
I can commit to that. Can I give myself till Friday week? (3rd June)
I hope to have it done earlier, but I thought I'd try and set a
realistic timeline.
cheers,
Paul
