I agree strongly with Bryan here. I do like Rafał's suggested approach of creating a namespace-compatibilty module if the package names will change (which, agreed, is probably long overdue). Making it as easy as possible for the existing (small) user community to run with the new version will enco

Back when the issue of picking a chair first came up, I said I would take a turn if needed. Of course, I've since dropped out and am no longer eligible. My main reason for dropping out was that I felt there was insufficient user community input and support for a viable project. In particular, I

Is the name change a requirement for a 3.0? The problem is that this will break compatibility making it extremely difficult to establish performance in existing applications while preserving the ability to rollback to a known good code base. I would have to give a -1 to this. We need to valid

We might want to separate the two paths from a release perspective. The namespace changes should happen on a major numbered release. The build change might be better targeted at 3.1? Just my thoughts on making things happen sooner with smaller overall number of issues that might then occur and

I am ok with it as long as the name change can be made transparent. I think that the ability to roll forward and backward production code between the current and the next release trumps everything else. Bryan > On May 13, 2014, at 8:31 AM, Peter wrote: > > - Original message - >> I

I think also need to decide if qa_refactor does become defacto 3.0, do we do the following: Change the com.sun.jini namespace to org.apache.river Change the com.artima namespace to org.apache.river Move to a Maven project and decide on module group and artifact ids Regards Dennis On Tue, May 1

Why don't we do a pre-release from this branch? Does apache support this concept? Give it some time in the wild to shake down the bugs? If not. Let's just release it and document that there is a lot of churn. Give it a 3.0 designation and be prepared to release a series of updates as bugs are
