Re: [Dspace-devel] Request for delay of feature freeze.

2011-08-23 Thread Robin Taylor
Hi Mark,

I'm generally in agreement. At last weeks developers meeting it was
agreed to extend the feature freeze for 'a few days' in order to get
these features in. That was a bit vague, but that is not necessarily a
bad thing. I would be loathe to set a new deadline as that may encourage
people to take their foot off the peddle a little and obviously the
sooner things are committed the better. 

Either Tim or myself continue to be in contact with the developers of
all the issues you list and I am hopeful we will see them all being
resolved soon.  

With regards to DS-881, I think there was general agreement that this
issue could be considered a bug fix and was therefore not subject to the
feature freeze deadline. Its worth pointing out to all that bug fixes
are permitted until the testathon. Obviously though that particular
issue will require a significant change to the build process so it would
be good to have it discussed on Wednesday.

Cheers, Robin.

Re: [Dspace-devel] Request for delay of feature freeze.

2011-08-23 Thread Tim Donohue
I mostly wanted to second what Robin said below.

Essentially, if anyone has a feature that barely missed the freeze, 
they should get in touch with Robin to discuss it.  If something is 
90-95% complete, chances are we still have enough time to get it in 
(but again talk to Robin first).  As Robin mentioned, he  I are 
working to shepherd in those features that barely missed the freeze 
but are very close to completion.

Turnaround is very quick on some of these features -- so, please take 
part in the discussion on JIRA for each of the features (mentioned by 
MarkD previously).   If any others come up that need immediate  quick 
feedback, Robin or I will make everyone aware of them.

We'll also be able to use our meeting tomorrow to discuss all of this, 
and try to finalize our dates for the 1.8.0 Testathon (so we can start 
to get the word out).  I agree with everyone else that DS-881 (Maven 3) 
would also be good to discuss.

If you have questions, comments or conce
rns, let us know!

- Tim

2011-08-23 Thread Mark H. Wood
I think this is a sensible proposal.

And I agree that 881 is a bug fix and shouldn't be subject to deferral
by the Feature Freeze, though I'd be concerned if a fix didn't land
well in advance of Testathon.

Hi Mark,

I'd like to see these fixes get into the release too.
I became overwhelmed in the past week and was unable to complete/test/commit
all the issues I had on my plate.
