Apache Geronimo Board Report for 1Q 2007
The Apache Geronimo Project has been mostly focusing on achieving
Java EE 5 functionality for its 2.0 release. We have been refining
our release procedures and as a result have been fairly consistent at
releasing monthly Milestones to make our work in progress available
to users.
Version 1.2 is nearing its readiness to release but has been delayed
due to external dependencies that have not been fulfilled.
Collaboration with several other projects in Apache is going on which
includes Axis 2, OpenJPA, OpenEJB, CXF and Yoko.
Releases
* Geronimo
2.0-M2 and 2.0-M3 were released in January and February
respectively.
Continuing the "Drive to 5" and hope to have a developer
release by May.
* Geronimo Javamail
New release of the javamail jars were released. The new
versions are geronimo-javamail_1.3.1_mail-1.1, geronimo-
javamail_1.3.1_provider-1.1, and geronimo-javamail_1.3.1_spec-1.3.
Devtools
Xbean
Website
Migrated the authoring of the website to Confluence. GMOxSITE space
can be updated by Geronimo committers only and uses autoexport plugin
to create the HTML version that is served from minotaur.
Some content on the website such as plugin repo lists, schemas,
images are still maintained via the original svn repo.

Policy Changes
* TCK Access
The PMC approved a policy allowing read access to our TCK
framework for any Apache committer that has signed the NDA for access
to the Sun TCK. There is a 72-hour waiting period for non-Geronimo
committers so the PMC membership can comment. Non-committers are
granted read-only access (and can earn karma) while Geronimo
committers are granted Read / Write access.
