Re: Potential release vote for 8.0.7 and 9.0.0-M7

2021-05-02 Thread Zowalla, Richard
Hi Alexandre,

in 8.0.7, Tomcat is @ version 9.0.45 atm (TOMEE-2998).
We also updated the related web.xml files for mime type mapping (TOMEE-
3718).

Gruss
Richard

Okay great for TomEE, but take some rest : it won't help if you get a

It'll definitely contain the latest CXF as many of the TCK failures were there. 
 We're actually building against the unreleased 3.5.0-SNAPSHOT, but hopefully 
we can back that down to the last release, 3.4.3. I don't know the status of 
the Tomcat version as I've not been doing those TCK fixes, but I suspect it's 
the latest latest.

If anything is missed, we can roll a 8.0.8 immediately even as soon as Tuesday. 
 Basically, if we don't get a release vote up in the 8 to 16 hours, we'll miss 
the Jakarta EE 9.1 release window.

 Heads up that we are narrowing in in the last few TCK issues and there is 
 still some chance we can be Jakarta EE 9.1 Web Profile certified in time 
 for the Jakarta EE 9.1 release vote Monday.
 
 It would be super super and I mean *super* tight
 
 However, if we can get it done we'll need to do a release vote by no later 
 than Sunday afternoon and file our certification request.  We don't need 
 to have concluded our vote to make the Jakarta EE 9.1 release ballot, we 
 just need final binaries of our own to be at least in staging and in the 
 process of our own vote.
 
 We do need that vote pass, however, so that would require some pragmatism 
 on all our parts.
 
 For that reason I recommend we do not try to push out a 9.0.0 final, but 
 go ahead with 9.0.0-M7. If there are some issues with the binaries we put 
 up for vote, unless they are legal issues, we can still release them and 
 immediately fix the issues next week in a subsequent 8.0.8 and 9.0.0-M8.  
 There's no reason to "wait", we can simply release twice.  Version numbers 
 are free.
 
 The Jakarta EE 9.1 release vote lasts for two weeks and an announcement 
 would happen some days after that.  Ff we did want to push out a 9.0.0 for 
 the announcement, we'd have at least till May 17th to do that, perhaps 
 even the 20th.
 
 The reason we want to get certified in time for the ballot is recently 
 there was a change that implementations listed on the ballot get a special 
 place at the top of the specification page.  Any implementations that come 
 even one day later cannot be included and will not be accepted or given 
 special designation.  This lasts forever and is a permanent advantage to 
 those in the list.  It's also a permanent *disadvantage* to those not on 
 the list.  It's eat or be eaten.
 
 So that's what we're going for:  A staged binary up for a vote here, 
 passing the TCK, in time to be listed on the Jakarta EE 9.1 release ballot 
 Monday.

Hi David,

Thanks for your answer, this is perfectly clear.

Will this upcoming TomEE 8.0.7 release include latest Tomcat / CXF
dependencies that fixes CVEs that showed up since 8.0.6 release ?

All the source code is in TomEE 8.0 and TomEE 9.0.x is just created through 
bytecode transformation.  The long and short of that is they pass/fail almost 
the exact same tests as it's the same code. We can do library upgrades in the 
`tomee-jakarta` repo and add a patch file for third-party dependencies here and 
there, but any fixes on the TomEE side go into 8 and are automatically picked 
up in via bytecode transformation of 9 as well.

In fact, I've been doing most my local work exclusively running the Jakarta EE 
8 TCK and just letting the automated systems do the running of the EE 9 TCK.

> In such case, what would be the content of a TomEE 8.0.7 release?

Everything in this list is fixed, except about 10 tests which are not part of 
the Web Profile and therefore not required for certification and will be fixed 
later.  Though it says "EE 9" these failed for both 8 and 9 TCKs:

 - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-3140

We're still one TCK test shy of passing and have some work to do on the API 
jars to pass the signature tests, but it's looking good.

Brief pause for me to take a nap, however, as I've been up for 24 hours and 
keep nodding off at the keyboard :)

2021-05-02 Thread Alex The Rocker
I am a bit confused : I thought that renaming of javax.* into
jakarta.* packages for the EE API is only targeted for TomEE 9.x.

In such case, what would be the content of a TomEE 8.0.7 release?

In any cases, I'd be happy to see a TomEE 8.0.7 release soon, in order
to get latest CVE fixes since 8.0.6.
