Should we add this to http://james.apache.org/guidelines.html (or somewhere else). There's nothing special here compared to apache standard procedure, but it's always better to say it. Also, has all committers the privileged username/password to publish in snahpshot/release maven repositories ?

Tks,

Eric

Hi

Does any special 'James' documentation about releasing exists or does it just follow the 'standard' process [1] staging a release:
1. Prepare pom for release
2. publish snapshot
3. prepare release
4. stage the release for a vote
5. vote
6. release

Does a designated release manager exists or is it up to each developer to do it on his own (I've never done it before, so be warned in this case ;) )?

Thanks
Felix

Hi,
 From http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/apache/9/apache-9.pom
apache-9 mainly specifies the maven versions to be used (for example,
the maven-site-plugin 3.0-beta3).

The versions we specify in james parent will override if needed the ones
from apache parent.
As james tend to follow close the latest versions, and if all build is
successful with parent-9, let's go for it.

Hi,
Just updated with Felix's last commits (r1070751).
Site are now generated with 1.6-SNAPSHOT skin.

Are there any other changes for james-project before releasing 1.6?

Shall the james-parent parent (org.apache:apache) also be updated? Now
it's version 7, latest version is 9? Does anybody knows the impacts
this could/will have?
Apart of the question above I see no other changes before releasing 1.6.

I just wonder if we should force maven-3 when using james-project 1.6
and drop the switch for site-plugin which is now done in the profiles
section.

Done.

Of course 'release early, release often' this can also be done in a
later release of the james-project.

My thoughts

Ok. I also saw, that e.g. projects like mailbox have the
james-server-root
as parent, but I couldn't find a technical reason for this. When e.g.
using
james-project as parent it builds also. Do I miss something or is it
historically grown and maybe just a leftover?

Thanks

We should just release the parent if you think its ready...

I know, but this means either a) releasing e.g. james-server-root
before
releasing mailbox or b) switch back to non SNAPSHOT version for
releasing
and using an old parent.

Is it "common" to release also james-*-parent poms when doing a
release
(sorry, probably a stupid question)?

Hi Felix,

-site.xml descriptor is now installed.
mvn site on james-mailbox still uses 1.5 (not 1.6-SNAPSHOT).


Can version 1.6-SNAPSHOT be used instead of 1.5 in the parent
section?
What's the policy you use in this case for SNAPSHOTs for parent
poms?

Regards
Felix



Can you build with 1.6-SNAPSHOT after deleting your local
1.6-SNAPSHOT

local repo?

Hi Eric

Sorry, I was not complete when saying that maven didn't install
the

snapshots.
Yes, m3 downloads the snapshots, but if you install if from
you
local
PC
with "mvn install" to your local repo, it does not install the
*-site.xml needed to build the sites that inherites (the
menus,...).

It's a bit complicated to explain, but if you look at



https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/james/james-project/1.6-SNAPSHOT/





you will see untill Sat Mar 05 some
james-project-...-site.xml.
After, there are no more james-project-...-site.xml because of
a m3
bug
(I suppose).


Maybe it's a feature? If I understand you right this [1]
could be
the
problem and the solution.
Does adding the attach-descriptor goal solves the problem
you're
talking about?

Thanks

The consequence is that when I build the sites (mailbox,
imap,...)
on

my
PC, it uses the 1.5 skin, and not the 1.6-SNAPSHOT one.

We could look if this is really a mvn bug, if a jira is
open,...
As temporary fix, we could build the james-project project
under m2,
which should fix the -site.xml deployment.

I temporary can't resolve a dependency from my location. I

However, I remember I had issue with maven 3 beta that

install
the snapshots skins in local repo.
Is it still the case with 3.0.2 (snapshots will be resolved,
but
I'm
curious to know if you had issues installing local skins) ?


I removed maven-skin from local repository (rm -rf
~/.m2/repository/org/apache/james/maven-skin/) and run the
mvn site
-Psite-reports in the protocols project. The maven-skin got
downloaded, installed to local repo and used.

Technical reports may still have some inherited menus. This
is the
case when the project's parent (pom.xml) is of version 1.5
and not
of
version 1.6-SNAPSHOT. I haven't changed them because I'm not
up to
date about your policy using SNAPSHOTs in this place. In
common
it's
not state of the art to use SNAPSHOTs.

A short status update:

I reviewed following projects, put them to work using
maven 3,
have
them prerequisiting mvn-3.0.2, make choosable if to
generate
documentation (mvn site as before) or to generate
technical
reports
(mvn site -Psite-reports):

- imap (imap-trunk-m2
- mailbox (
- mailbox-integration-tester
- protocols
- server

On Jenkins CI I changed configuration for these projects
to use
maven
3 (latest) and generate the site. Technical reports are
available
via
Jenkins entering the project (Maven-generated site) or via
following
Url pattern:



https://hudson.apache.org/hudson/view/G-L/view/James/job/[imap-trunk-m2|mailbox|mailbox-integration-tests|protocols-trunk|james-server-trunk]/site







I'm aware of the not working banner images in the
technical
reports.
