I've been wanting to take a look at our classloader structure for a
while, now. Also, OSGI seems to be popping up a bunch, lately. So,
with 1.1.1 TCK completed, I'm going to spend some time reading up on
OSGI and looking at adding OSGI support to Geronimo.
I'm just getting started, so can't commit to any significant function
in time for 1.2, but we'll see...

All,
Aaron started a thread back a ways about the 1.2 release. I know
that there has been discussion, interest and some action in getting
it on the table. At this point I'm not exactly sure what our goals
are for the next step of Geronimo and when it will be done.
First step is defining what goes into the release and then who
wants to guide the release to fruition. I'll start the what's in
it thread and I think the whose going to do it will get resolved
once we finish this piece.
Given our past experience if we would like to hit another dot
release this year then I think we have to be releasing in
November. Thanksgiving and Christmas seem to burn up the last
month and a half. So I think a release around November 15th sounds
about right.
This means (working backwards) we'd need to have a branch by
October 15th. So, with that in mind we have a little less than 2
months for development.
With that in mind here is the list of things I remember off the top
of my head. I'll follow this thread and put out a summary note.
I'm putting people's names next to items I remember them
mentioning; I'm not assigning work :)
Java 5 Ready
JPA Integration (Open JPA / Cayenne) (I think Dain or Blevins ?)
Clustering support (Gianny / Jeff)
Pluggable JACC (Jencks)
Performance (Matt)
Lot's of other stuff I'm missing ?
