Hi all, Since the Tuscany C++ M2 release, there's been quite a bit of extra functionality added to the codebase, so perhaps we should start thinking about an M3 release?
Things added: - REST service & reference binding - Support for multi-threaded environments - Support for Apache HTTPD (both for REST and Axis2 ws service bindings) - Removal of componentType side-file requirement for Python components - SDO support in Python components - Named-argument support for REST references, Python and C++ components - Samples that show use of above functionality - 'Real-world' samples showing calls to externally available services - Mac OSX port (not sure if this is complete?) - Various SDO fixes/improvements Things being worked on: - PHP extension being brought up to Ruby/Python level with support for the PHP SCA_SDO extension [1] (Simon) - Upgrading to Axis2C 0.96 (Andy) - A "Web 2.0" sample (Andy - see post later today) This covers most of the items discussed in the "where next" thread we did after M2 [2] Things to do: - Appoint a Release Manager (volunteers?) - Prioritise Jiras. - Update/improve docs - Further SCA fixes/functionality? - Further SDO fixes/functionality? - More samples? Here's another question: Should we change the name of Tuscany C++? The "other half" of Tuscany don't append "Java" to their releases and now we have decent support for C++, Python, Ruby and (soon) PHP, calling it Tuscany C++ perhaps misleads users into thinking it's only for people who know/use C++. Someone suggested the name "Multi-language", but seeing as Tuscany Java supports Javascript, Groovy, Ruby, Spring, etc this would perhaps also be misleading. Any good ideas? Perhaps a non-technical name should be used (we could carry on the wine-association - Rioja anyone? Or maybe something different - Chianina? [3]).
