I've been working via jira and private emails with Kurt to get scout
ready for 1.1 release.
Here are a few more things that need to happen before the release:
1. (most important) The pom has been changed to use the apache 6 pom
as parent. This deploys to the apache nexus instance. In order for
this to work the project NEEDS to get permissions set up there.
First, add a task to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-1896
asking for scout access. The project needs some record on the dev list
indicating that it wants to use nexus. A couple +1s to this part of
this email should suffice. Brian is pretty quick about this but I'd
allow at least a day.
2. The pom isn't using the scout copy of the jaxr api any more, its
using the geronimo copy, which is what the tck is run against. I
recommend removing the scout jaxr api copy and the current root/parent
pom and moving the scout project down a level to trunk (well, branches/
v1.1). Right now I'm looking at site generation, hopefully moving the
site into the scout project will work fine.
3. There need to be LICENSE and NOTICE files in the svn checkout
directory. If all the code is developed at apache and there aren't
any other special circumstances then the ones generated and added to
the binary jar files will be fine. You can copy them out of target/
maven-shared-archive-resources/META-INF/ after a build. If the
project needs different/additional info in these files then please let
me know what it is, as it needs to be appended to the legal files in
the binary jar.
4. You should use the maven-release-plugin for the release. I'll
provide more hints later on how. However, the version should
currently be 1.1-SNAPSHOT until the release candidate is actually
made. I'll be providing a pom patch soon that will include this change.
5. I'll be running the tck very shortly on the code currently in svn
together with the geronimo jaxb 2.1 spec release candidate. We had
to re-roll the spec release due to some minor problems with the legal
files. The current staging directory is
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/geronimo-staging-029/
