GeoServer code sprint
---------------------

Sponsorship is good (thanks Vivid!).

* https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoServer_Code_Sprint_2016

We have plan - how are people doing for prep?
* 
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Wicket-migration-code-sprint 
(preflight instructions)

Still missing some direction to upgrade tests:

* wicket tester in wicket 1.4 was poor and we did not manage to test 
anything. Look into if the wicket tester AJAX testing has improved at all?
* may need to look at some scripting tools? Selenium or similar?

Action:

* (Jody) reach out to martin davis regards accommodation
* (Jody) confirm transport plans with attandees

Infrastructure
--------------

* Ares and windbuild credentials changed, email for access.
* blog.geoserver.org is now cloud hosting (pretest 
geoserver.wpengine.com ) which is now live (contract jody for access)
* New Linux build server with OpenJDK 7/8 proposed by GeoSolutions. 
Shall it start sending hate mails? undecided yet
* Question about duplicating effort - further discussion needed
* Q: Should put OpenJDK7/8 on ares? If it can handle it ... OpenJDK is 
available already
* CITE tests still waiting for deployment on Ares

GSIP-136 - Resource Notification Dispatcher
-------------------------------------------

Last call for votes, proposal written up after last meeting.
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/GSIP-136

API change close() -> dispose()
-------------------------------

Should we do this as part of Java 8 migration? Dicussion on email 
indicates yes...

1. add close? (yes)
2. deprecate dispose? Makes sense but is annoying when we remove it in 
the future, use a default method when we remove it because java 8.

IDE is going to start complain when you do not call close() - even if 
you call for dispose().

What is needed:

- add close()
- deprecated dispose()
- add a note in the update instructions
- docs? most examples cover use of API rather than this case...

Pull Requests
-------------
