We can all make suggestions - and I'm one of the too-busy-elsewhere
scum-of-the-earth (j/k) that so far has spent more time suggesting than
doing. No promises, but I'd like to see if I can make setting up
federation easier.
I certainly wouldn't want my comments to discourage anyone that has been
contributing - so if there's a Maven transition in the offing, great. I
for one would love to see it.
But in the spirit of brainstorming, my suggested priorities would be:
- Release! We're almost there, and we need to get something over the
line, put a stake in the sand etc. etc.
- Cleanup. With a fresh checkout of svn earlier today, I experienced
(easily fixed) build failures and compiler errors, though I'm not sure
if these are purely related to my environment / jdk etc. We could do
more to support setting up your first environment and getting to the
point of a running app, though a release will help with this.
- Restructure code base and artifacts: WiabCommon, WiabServer,
WiabGWTClient
- Client protocol work.
- Some point in the future: wave permissions, other clients etc. etc.
A switch to maven could fall in anywhere, and would be neat to have, but
imho I don't think it's required, or (in itself) going to make much
difference to our level of participation.
