(and status of my PC at the bottom) I've added my personal priorities here:
4 - Place "package.html" files in the source for Excalibur [High] 3 - Convert to JUnit [High] 1 Document Release schedule [high] + Framework is feature based + LogKit and Excalibur are 3 month intervals + Cornerstone/Phoenix should be 3 month intervals as well (Alpha) 2 Document Scratchpad to Excalibur promotion [high] + Must conform to Avalon idioms + API must be stable + Must have three +1 votes and no -1 votes 5 Component Directory [Wish] 7 CJAN/JJAN/JNLP integration [Wish] 6 Move to DocBook dtd [High] 8* Code autoformat for CVS [Low] + only for .java files * I'm concerned this will be buggy. ------------------------ Is he back now? Short answer: yes. Long answer: Remember how I talked a while ago about totally getting rid of MS when I got ADSL? To cut a very long and boring story a bit shorter, I have spent countless hours trying to get either of linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Darwin and even minix to work with ADSL. It turns out the _only_ way to do this so it _actually_ works like it should is by doing some (illegal) hacking of the ADSL modem. Which I cannot do as I work for my ISP... Thus, I decided to abandon the effort and install windows 2000 with cygwin. While trying to reformat my hard drive to NTFS, I managed to screw it up so completely that the only thing I could do to get running again was run an 'NSA-strength' data destroyer boot floppy over the entire disk. Took 87 hours, btw. I installed win2000 on a FAT 32 disk. Worked fine for about two days; when I tried to install the latest service pack though, the thing started hickupping; when I installed IE 5.5, it died. Hurray. So, now I'm running the ugly but at least working windows 98 again..... The lesson to be learned here: if you want cool (new) technology, it is all but impossible to go around the microsoft monopoly. Fortunately, java is platform-independent =) Anyhow, I learned about the release at work from the Slashdot website... I'm now downloading. Looks good people; congrats on the amount of work done in the last few weeks. My avalon mail folder still has 250 unread e-mails in it, so it'll be a while before I'm up to speed. Which is when I will _finally_ get around to JMX/phoenix (if Pete hasn't done it already). Bla bla bla bla....in short, it's good to be back 8-) - Leo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
