Hello all,
Here's a summary of the movement on the various issues concerning getting a first Derby release out there.
1 - IP/copyright concerns - It appears this has ballooned into a more serious issue than previously thought. Discussion of the proper way to handle the transition of the code to the ASF license and in what way IBM copyright is retained, if any, is occurring at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am sure we will hear from the Incubator PMC as soon as this issue is settled.
2 - Apply all currently pending bug fixes. I have the following list of submitted patches:
[APPLIED] [PATCH] Optimization of org.apache.derby.impl.services.uuid.BasicUUID.toByteArray()
[APPLIED] [PATCH] Set Derby's build number to be the subversion revision number
[PATCH] derby.war file build
[PATCH] Fix to prevent empty log file switches that could cause recovery failures
[PATCH] minor bugs in dblook
[PATCH] Extension Packaging
[PATCH] retrieveMessages... true by default in ij
[PATCH] Network servlet display only message key
[PATCH] added 3 more parser generated files to the clobber target in main build.xml
[PATCH] Various fixes to javadoc generation
Please let me know if there are any I am missing here. Note that the change copyright to ASF patch is not included here because of issue #1.
3 - Now that we have bug tracking, please speak up if you consider any of the currently logged bugs as a showstopper for the release.
4 - Please comment on what the content and form of the release should be. I think jars, javadoc and HTML documentation should be included, since that is what we have at the moment, packaged as a zip and tar.gz file. Please speak up if you are interested in rpms for this first release.
5 - Consensus on Derby's upgrade policy/version scheme. There is currently a vote pending in the "[VOTE] Derby upgrade policy" thread.
Please post other concerns if you have them.
Thanks, andrew -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin)
