Hi Brett,
I emailed the mailing list a week or two ago asking about building
0.14. I
set aside some time to verify/apply some 0.14 patches, but was
unable to do
so because I cannot build 0.14.
http://www.nabble.com/0.14-Branch-Created-td16733817.html
Was there anything to Wendy's suggestion that the offending code could
be removed?
If this was resolved, I would be able to apply 0.14 patches.
Thanks Evan!
Cheers,
Brett

Shane,
Just a bit confused about which are the graduation items and which
are the
new development ones, in your mind :)
There are elements here that are on the right track - unifying the
users
around one codebase is a necessity to growth, for sure. The
questions I'd be
asking is:
- how can we support this process?
- for those that are interested in helping to migrate
functionality, where
should they start?
We really need to push this along if you're going to be busy with
your day
job and Evan with his insane bike ride for the next month :)
My thought is that there is no real way "in" for someone just
wanting to
contribute - navigating briefly from the website I couldn't find
the roadmap
for 0.16, pointers to what we need help with, and JIRA is just a
whole
bucket of unscheduled, so maybe we could look at that?
Hearing "we will get it all sorted out" is one of those warning
signs that
I hear that you may be taking it on yourself too much - so let's
see who
else can help out!
As you've referred to, I have some colleagues that have submitted
patches
for 0.14 - as I understand it, the plan for this is to apply them
so that
there's a unified branch to migrate functionality from to trunk.
Are there
any other 0.14 users lurking there that could confirm the submitted
patches?
Do we have other patches, either from 0.14 or trunk that someone
can look
at? Again, it's hard to tell without the target versions in there :)
Graduation is really dependant on being able to gain users, and
having a
path to convert them to developers, IMO.
Cheers,
Brett

It sounds as though we need to start getting people off of 0.14 and
this
means moving the Visual Studio work into trunk. I checked
Sandcastle and
it
looks as though Microsoft finally put it under open-source, so
that's
one
area we can tackle for API doc generation. Any volunteers for
Sandcastle
plugin?
We also have toolchains as of Maven 2.0.9. I added the NMaven
support
for
toolchains into the trunk, but there still is a fair amount we
need to
do to
fully leverage it. I've got some Maven related work and then am
scheduled
for the .NET support for Nexus. After that, I'll be jumping into
NMaven
a
lot more. I think Evan is doing likewise, after he does his insane
San
Francisco to LA bicycle ride next month (assuming he survives). So
next
month, I expect we will have a lot more activity and start trying to
build
the community and hopefully get in more committers. I know a lot of
people
have submitted patches. Thanks for that. We will get it all sorted
out.

Hi Evan,
We definitely require full IDE integration for Visual Studio, as
well
as
solution generation, pom generation from an existing solution file,
and
support for signed assemblies.?Generation of the XML docs is
another
feature
we'd love to see.?
The developer community that I'm trying to support doesn't want to
leave
the IDE if at all possible, but we would love to pull them into the
Maven-based environment that we currently use for Java builds.
Shane - thanks for the update.? Keep that whip cracking! ;-)

We are getting there. We have a release under our belt. We just
need
to
prove that we have a healthy, sustainable developer community
before
we
can
graduate. Cracks whip over Evan's back ;)

Hi Caulene,
It would be helpful to understand how your company plans to use
NMaven.
E.g. compile, test, package, etc. Is there missing functionality
that
you
would require, such as IDE integration or solution file
generation?
(Note: I'm letting Shane handle the graduation question :) )
Thanks for the feedback,
Evan

Hi Shane,
I'm trying to implement NMaven within my company, and there are
concerns
that NMaven is still an incubator project.? What are the remaining
barriers
for graduation from the incubator, and is there an estimated
timeline??
How
can we help?
Thanks,
Caulene
