Hi guys, I was able to cut the first Apache LDAP API 2.0 release yesterday night, after a dire fight with 'mvn site' (sadly, the maven javadoc 3.0.1 plugin does not play well with the maven site 3.71 plugin, leading to erros while trying to generate the javadoc... I *know* we have to correct the API javadoc, but it's a long term effort, we have more important things to do atm...)
I indtend to cut a Apache DS release based on this version, and that is a major release, as it includes some needed fixes on the backend. Hopefully, this will end those database corruption that we are facing for years... The next step would be for Studio to be released, based on those two major improvements. The new API will make Stduio *much* faster at startup, as it was parsing the schema of each existing connection using antlr, and that was so slow that you may have to wait a minute or more with a few tens of connections. Bottom line, we are in good shape, and I hope we can focus more on the server soon, to make it better. Typically, we have to work on : o mavibot integration: there is some work to do that requires some discussion, now that Mavibot transaction works, but we don't have removal implemented. o ACIs: The current system is, to say the least, cryptic. We need to get it improved and simplified o Replication: It works, but we don't know up to a point if it works well. Also we need to implement delta-syncrpl to lower down the exchanged data between servers o Monitoring: We don't have ways to know what's going on in teh server except by analysing the logs... o Logging: It's static (we can't change the log level while the server is running) and it's either not informative enough, or too verbose. Lots to do, but we have a good working base now. Anyway, first, let's get the releases out ! -- Emmanuel Lecharny Symas.com directory.apache.org
