I think it's time to start discussing the particulars of a 2.1 release.
There's been a lot of advancements made in our plugin infrastructure.
There's also been the pluggable console enhancements. It would be good
to get a release out, with these capabilities. They provide a more solid
platform for future enhancements, I think.
There's also GShell and new monitoring capabilities. I'm probably
missing a few other new functions.
Finally, IIUC, 2.1 would be able to support a Terracotta plugin. I'd
also be very interested to hear what WADI capabilities that could be
exposed.
I'm willing to bang the release manager drum. I see that Joe has already
started tugging on the TCK chain
What do others think? How close are we to a 2.1 release? What additional
capabilities and bug fixes are needed? Can we wrap up development
activities in the next week or two?
I think it would be good to get 2.1 out before the Holidays and I think
that is reasonable. IMO we have enough function now to declare a release.
Aside from getting tck passing and released version of current SNAPSHOT
dependencies ... I think we ought to get config.xml updated. With the
changes for the flexible server, config.xml is now being generated and
isn't quite as user friendly as it once was. I don't know much about
this area but I'll gladly help. There are also a few usability items
that I'd like to see if I can get in ... but they are not critical.
