Several alternatives have been suggested [1] which I summarize here. A) Start from what we already have in trunk, develop the OASIS function, introduce new improvements or improvements from the Equinox branch as appropriate B) Start from a completely clean trunk and build up from there based on the resources we have in the the 1.x code stream, in the Equinox branch or from new developments C) Start from what is in the Equinox branch
Is this correct? Are there other combinations people want to consider? There is a related question of how we develop trunk toward OASIS compliance. I see two extremes; i) Start with a full set of modules and update to OASIS compliance while keeping all the function we have running ii) Start with the smallest set of modules possible and iterate toward OASIS compliance adding in more function/extensions as people address different features/specifications. Again, are there other approaches? The object of this discussion is to agree the starting point for future trunk development. If you don't have other options to add it would be useful for you to express a preference so we can see what people think. If we can't come to a conclusion in the next couple of days though this discussion we will have to identify a small number of options to vote on.
