Agenda:

1. Maven2 upgrade- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-647. Making progress. Running mvn install with java 5 has a test case failure in the api project. Works fine on java 6. The changes to the api pom.xml in the jira look good.

The exectck mojo is under development. This maven plugin will be defined in the tck pom.xml to attach to a maven phase and run automatically. It will be configured by default in the tck pom.xml and can be overridden via additional elements in the tck pom.xml or by command line. For example, we might support -DinstallSchema to specify running the install schema function; -Dconf=mycnf to specify running only the configuration in the src/conf/mycnf.conf file; -Ddb=mysql to specify running with the database connection properties in the src/ conf/mysql.db file... The defaults will be to *not* install the schema, run all tests on the reference implementation with the derby database. Other possible scenarios would use different goals on the command line.

2. Other issues

Action Items from weeks past:

[6 Aug 10] AI Craig follow up on missing DTD/XSD. no news

[6 Aug 10] AI Craig update the download page with JDO 3 artifacts done.

[6 Aug 10] AI Craig talk to Apache PR re publicity for 3.0 release

It is possible to get publicity with Apache PR. What we need is something that makes a compelling story.

The best story is from users who can be quoted saying good things about the new functionality of the release.

Do we have any customers who are willing to be quoted? If not, do we have customers who can tell us a story (not a direct quote) about why the new features help them?

If not, we might not have anything worth a press release.

AI Everyone who knows of a customer who can tell us a story: tell us a story.

[6 Aug 10] AI Michael reply to a poster that we have a new release with a class missing from JDO 2.3 EA. no news
