Re: Shale Roadmap
Hi, I move this conversation to the dev list.

Well, we do sort of have a roadmap (or at least a tool for creating one): https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-panel As you can see we're pretty close to a release. All that remains is some people to complete the few remaining 1.0.5 tickets and do the release work. · Define the project team organization, mainly the project leader and the development team. The Shale PMC is responsible for these kinds of decisions. Apache projects don't have a single "leader". Rather, they are led by the people who do the work - namely the PMC. The best way to get involved is continued participation in the mailing lists (a similar discussion is happening on the dev list so you should sign up for that as well) and adding some patches to the Jira tickets. · Determine the release of the stable version (date and who will lead it) I think 1.0.5 could easily become a stable (GA) version if we can get it out the door. Since the work is done by volunteers we don't have dates for the releases. It will happen when someone is motivated enough and has time to do it. · Analyze each module and decide which must eliminated and which is worth keeping alive Search the archives for info on this. Some discussion along that line has already taken place. For example, we have decided to discontinue support for Shale-Tiles in favor of the MyFaces Tomahawk Tiles 2 view handler. Other things were discussed as well but no firm decisions were made. There seems to be a lot of interest in seeing Shale move forward. I hope some of that interest will generate new activity. Greg

Re: Shale Roadmap
Hi, I'm not a Shale user or regular reader of this mailing list, although I gave it a look about a year ago. JSF 2.0 is going to be standardizing the best ideas from Shale's Clay, View Controller, Tiger extensions, and other features. JSF 2.0 is doing the same with facelets, jsftemplating, Seam, AJAX4JSF, etc. Once JSF 2.0 is out, will there be a need for bolt on frameworks like Shale, Seam, JSF Templating, Facelets, AJAX4JSF, etc? If I had the skills necessary to maintain a sophisticated framework like Shale I would join the JCP and help standardize the best features.

I think that the main reason why is the fact that there is not a well defined road map now for the project and many of as have bitten to use Shale in front of other frameworks. First of all decide if Shale has a future (that I think that it does) and redefine or reinforce the project goal. So in my opinion we should focus on defining or determining three key concepts: · Define the project team organization, mainly the project leader and the development team. · Determine the release of the stable version (date and who will lead it) · Analyze each module and decide which must eliminated and which is worth keeping alive You will say Thanks for your time.

Greg talk about * motivation. What do You think about new subproject Shale-RCP? RCP is incomming! * Seam similar architecture. Which Shale concepts did Seam implemented?
