The things I'd like to see in 1.0 are:

 - More console work

 - Bundled JavaMail with SMTP support
 - Separate Jetty and Tomcat ZIP/TAR distributions
 - A working installer distribution
 - Bug fixes

I'm not that keen on introducing clustering, WADI, or extra LDAP
integration if they are going to impact the stability/testing for 1.0
-- that's the kind of stuff I'd prefer to put in a branch until after
the release.


No reason that clustering would impact stability at all. They are just GBeans in a normally off position since 95% of the users won't need them on.

Agreed  - so no downside.

On the upside, Clustering is one of the major features that separates a small scale server from an enterprise-strength implementation. Having some form of clustering in the 1.0 will send out a powerful signal that we intend to be a serious contender.

LDAP is fully integrated and was part of the M5 release. Whats the issue here?


Thanks,

I saw the Virtuas announcement last week based on their Geronimo support. Very nice. One thing that caught my eye on their web site was 36 days to ApacheCon. It made me realize that in order to make 1.0 we only have 30 something days to make it. With CTS and Thanksgiving in between there is not a lot of time to get
all the things done we want.

Here is a list of items that have been going around on the list and wanted to get people's feedback in terms of what has to be there for 1.0 and my initial SWAG as to the importance. Please feel free to comment / change the items below .

Console patches and UI updates (example User & Group Mgt for console).
Gbean for Tomcat for clustering (Jeff G)
WADI integration (tech preview possibly, not required)
Directory restructure (will be done after TCK is verified... we want to control
the number of changes)
JavaMail
LDAP Apache Directory (using Tomcat)
Debug Console
Remote Deploy
DayTrader
Install - maven update needed
Hot Deploy (file based)   (Jacek)
Packaging changes (Maven respository) wait for Dave J. Dain indicated that
maven code won't make 1.0.

In addition to that there are a number of JIRAs out there as well. I noticed a lot of activity in getting them closed so that is excellent. I'll finish adjusting the fix version today to 1.0, 1.1 and 1.x. Once that's complete and
we agree on the JIRAs, features, etc. we can see where we'll land.

My apologies for being behind on this.

Cheers,

Matt
