I do not mean to rush anyone, but... It has been a month now and we still don't have a new build of XDoclet 1.2. As I stated before, I'd prefer to cut a final build and fix any issues in a follow-up point release, but I'm also okay with just cutting another beta build. Either way, I think it's time we do a cut of the newest stuff.
Andrew: If you are still too busy to handle this, I'd be happy to help out in any way I can. I can certainly do a build, but I do not know what is involved in updating the site, etc. Let me know how I can help. I'm also eager to finalize XDoclet 1.2 soon (if not with the next build). I have four reasons: (1) For selfish reasons, I'd like XDoclet 1.2 to be final before my book hits the shelves, (2) For practical reasons, I'd like XDoclet 1.2 to be final so that people will consider it stable and quit trying to use XDoclet 1.1.2 (see the article from 10/31 on Gamelan if you don't believe that this is still happening), and (3) finally I'd like to see XDoclet 1.2 to be final before XDoclet 2 is final, and (4--related to #3) I'd like to see XDoclet 1.2 development slow down (don't read this as "stop") and to have everyone migrate their attention to XDoclet 2. As long as XDoclet 1.2 isn't final I'm sure that some people want to keep tacking new stuff on it. Again...let me know what I can do to help. If there are any issues in JIRA that you think are a *must* to have fixed before 1.2 is final, point me at them and I'll see what I can do. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Andrew > Stevens > Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2003 6:32 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [Xdoclet-devel] 1.2 Final release? > > > On Sun, 2003-10-05 at 23:18, Craig Walls wrote: > > To clarify my original e-mail...By +0.5, I mean that I'm +1 to release > > XDoclet 1.2 as-is if everyone else agrees, but at the same time, I > > understand if there's some who would rather clean up some stuff before > > releasing. > > > > In either event, I'm definitely +1 that we put a plan in place to make > > *something* happen with 1.2 very soon. > > To quote a mail I sent a couple of weeks back > >Things have been a bit busy > >at work, but it seems to be quietening down a bit so I'm hoping to get > >back into it - fix some bugs, apply some patches, then see if folks > >think it's ready for a release.
