= Commons Logging 1.0.5 ReleasePlan =

== Background ==

JCL 1.0.4 was release in July. The 1.0.x codebase is mature and most of the 
limitations of the design are well understood. A small number of improvements 
have been made since this release some very important for some use cases. There 
is now considerable interest in pushing JCL onwards from this codebase. The 
time seems apt for the release of JCL1.0.5

== Status ==

RELEASE PLAN UNDER DEVELOPMENT

----

= Pre-Release Tasks =

Anyone who wants to volunteer for a task, just add something

== Documentation Review ==

 * Ensure that javadocs and website are up to date.
 * The new optional distribution which offers enhanced memory recycling in some 
environments needs documentation creating.

== Bug Review ==

== Bug Fix ==

== Test Compatibility ==

As a point release, this should be fully backwards compatible. This needs 
checking.

== Release Notes ==

This will be prepared in the traditional way (by using CVS commit logs). 

----

= Release Plan =

== Repository ==

A release branch will be taken as soon as the preliminary work is complete. 
This will allow work to continue on HEAD. If possible, this step should be 
postponed until after jakarta commons is converted to SVN.

== Release Notes ==

Any changes made after the branch is taken and code frozen will be added as 
they are made.

== Release Candidate ==

A release candidate will be prepared. Since backwards and future compatibility 
with Log4J is of crucial importance, users and developers will be asked to test 
their current installations with the release candidate. 

Therefore a suitable gap (to allow this testing) will be left between the 
announcement of the release and the release vote. Committers will be encouraged 
to test this RC on their own application before VOTEing +1.

----

= Post Release =

== Process Bugs Marked Later ==


= Comments =

 * Version compiled on jdk1.4 doesn't seem to work on JDk1.3. Therefore,  the 
jdk14Logger needs to be compiled with 1.4 and everything else with 1.3 for the 
release.
