Updated information below on our snapshots (and some more
questions/requests).

It has been mentioned several times that we should be looking to release
Geronimo 2.2 before the end of the year (preferrably mid-December).
Before we can consider a release there are a large number of snapshots
that need to be removed/replaced in our project. Can anybody shed any
light on these (or others that I may have missed)?
OpenEJB 3.1-SNAPSHOT - Actually, OpenEJB 3.1 was released in late
October. However, the trunk version was never updated and some
additional changes have been included. Recent changes in Geronimo trunk
now require this snapshot that is actually newer than the 3.1 release.
IMO we should revert the trunk change and attempt to work with the
released OpenEJB 3.1.
- udpated to OpenEJB 3.1.1-SNAPSHOT. Once it looks like we have clean
tck runs with OpenEJB we need to push for a release.
Axis2 SNAPSHOT (yep, it's just SNAPSHOT without a number). IIUC
correctly we need to get an Axis2 release before we can consider a
Geronimo 2.2 release. Does anybody know how close we are to getting an
Axis2 release?
- Jarek is looking into this and related dependencies
Axiom SNAPSHOT (yep. it's just SNAPSHOT too). I believe this is
required by Axis2 ... so if Axis2 is released then they will have to get
Axiom released as well (and we can pick up the released version).
- related to Axis2
-xBean 3.5-SNAPSHOT. Is this snapshot really required (I presume it
must be)? In branches/2.1 we're still using 3.3. It looks like the
latest released version is 3.4.3. I'll give that a shot if I don't hear
from anybody that we really need 3.5.
David Jencks indicated it was required that we use 3.5. Can somebody
with commit rights on xBean start to push for a release?
-wadi 2.1-SNAPSHOT. Is this snapshot really required (I presume it must
be)? In branches/2.1 we're using 2.0. What function requires
2.1-SNAPSHOT and is can somebody directly involved with wadi provide an
estimate on when this might be released?
- Gianny is going to start a release around 11/29/08.
-geronimo_j2ee-connector_1.6_spec 1.0-EA-SNAPSHOT. Are we at a point
where we can release this spec or do we need to wait until we verify tck?
- David Jencks indicated that we should be able to release a 1.0-EA
version prior to the spec being final. Should I start looking into that
release David or are you planning to do it?
- geronimo-jaspi_1.0_spec 1.0-SNAPSHOT. Are we at a point where we can
release this spec or do we need to wait until we verify tck?
- David Jencks indicated that the spec was complete but we don't yet
have a tck. Have you already asked Geir for one or should I?
- geronimo-servlet_3.0_spec 1.0-EA-SNAPSHOT. Are we at a point where we
can release this spec or do we need to wait until we verify tck?
- Another question for David Jencks ... should I start looking into a
release of this?
- geronimo-jaspi 1.0-SNAPSHOT. This is a new geronimo component. How
close is this to being able to be released?
- and another for David Jencks ... are you closer to a decision on if
this is ready for a release?
- geronimo-concurrent_1.0_spec 1.0-SNAPSHOT. How close is this to being
able to be released?
- I think Jarek is looking into releasing this as something like 1.0-EA
given that it is not yet final.
- XmlSchema SNAPSHOT (yep, it's just SNAPSHOT). I believe this is also
related to Axis2 dependencies and will have to be resolved by Axis2 as
they release.
- related to Axis2
- woden* 1.0-SNAPSHOT. This is also related to Axis2 and will have to
be resolved for an Axis2 release so we will pull in whatever they require.
- related to Axis2
- selenium-maven-plugin 1.0-rc-1-SNAPSHOT. I believe that we pulled
this in trying to resolve the FF3 issues. It's not clear to me if we
would have to remove this SNAPSHOT prior to a release but I think it
would be best to ensure that the tagged release can always be built and
run with tests - therefore I think we should remove it. Any other
opinions?
- I'm looking into this still
- jspc-maven-plugin 2.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT. I'm not sure why this is
updated (in branches/2.1 we use 2.0-alpha-1-20070806). Anybody know? We
should remove it.
- I moved us to 2.0-alpha-2
- jspc-compiler-tomcat6 2.0-alpha-2-SNAPSHOT. I'm not sure why this was
updated either. In branches/2.1 we updated the maven plugin (above) but
not the compiler but in trunk both were updated to the alpha-2-SNAPSHOT.
Anybody know why?
- I moved us to 2.0-alpha-2
- ianal-maven-plugin 1.0-alpha-1-SNAPSHOT. No doubt to support the new
legal file processing. Is there a released version we can use instead
of the SNAPSHOT or do we need to get a release here are well?
- I moved us to 1.0-alpha-1
