Hey guys,
I just wanted to ping the list and see what action items are still open
before we can try to roll the actual release tar balls.
On the PHP side I've put in some long days before we thought we would be
releasing, so that's been ready and waiting ever since, so no reasons there
to block the release that i'm aware of.
As far as i'm aware much of the maven release procedure has been addressed
(but it's all voodoo for me, so feel free to correct me), there's some
discussion ongoing still about the release package names though we seem to
have an majority prefering the shindig-{java,php} approach in some form or
another; And the hard coded path problem, while it is a nice to have doesn't
seem like a blocking issue to me personally with a rewrite jetty solution
suggested.
That leaves the xml output of some internal classes under discussion, though
Kevin very much gave the impression there that that was not part of the
contract of those classes, so not something we want to overhaul before we do
a 1.0 release. There's the issue of the jslint output warnings, and some RAT
warnings (which i send an inquery about to try to find out what the right
approach is there, but haven't recieved a reply on yet).
Most people will be taking a xmas break after the end of this week (if not
already), so if there are substantial action items still open i guess we'll
have to be realistic and shoot for jan 2009.
Is there anything missing from this summary? And do we have any idea of when
we can fix and/or put these issues to rest?
There's a lot of people who would *love* to have a stable release they can
work with, so lets not forget about them
