* security hardening. "locking down...or giving the opportunity to lock down; e.g. secure class loading, working with digital certs, etc..." Rated as 'like' because of the difficulty.
* Look at all SCM tasks and pull in pending patches for new features. Find people to test them.
What are SCM tasks? all optional tasks?
I mean all the optional tasks for different SCM systems -VSS, perforce, clearcase, starteam. There are not a few patches to enhance features on these, patches submitted by users. But we havent taken them on board yet.
I'd like to look at all the patches for each one and patch them, even though though I dont have the ability to test them. Actually, if I build up a win98 vmware image with Java1.2, I could put VSS on there too. It would be a win98 legacy image. I may have starteam access @ work. What I dont have is clearcase or perforce access.
pause. Perforce has a limited workspace/user version for free: http://perforce.com/perforce/loadprog.html
so I could install and use that as well.
I cant do clearcase, and even if I could get a copy I wouldnt, as I dont want to be the full time CC administrator any project that uses the tool has. I am still scared of, after three years away from it. I do recall that sometimes Ant went patchy on CC, something like <delete> failing; we'd have to reboot the OS to make it come back again. Plus different case sensitivity logic from a normal windows filesystem. I know some people love it, but I am not in that camp. I like to view it as the ultimate vision of a distributed file system -one with integrated versioning- let down by the fact the implementation is fatally flawed by putting too much magic in the filesys, and use of RPC for lan-scoped traffic only.
And could we consider dropping xalan1 somewhen?
Let's have a vote on it.
