To date, I have always been in favour of one trunk, and one version.

I understand the need for a clear separate and for Doxia to be useful without the site tools, but I don't think separating the releases was the right way to do it.


I use them completely separately. I barely touch the site generation stuff in my integration. The site tools are completely layered upon the core. If they are going to be clear and separate then they are released separately and have separate trunks. I think people who currently work on them have never used them for anything other then the site plugin. It's also not hard to create another JIRA project.

I don't particularly care if people want to glob them back together but they are functionally separate. I can use the core without the site tools, one is clearly and extension of the other. In this alpha state changes in the site tools require changes in the core but that should not be the case for very long.

I don't have a need to bring them back together again. They are separate if you look at their respective use cases. What I would like to do, for this release at least, is to align the version numbering. That way we can release the code that we have now, and all the 49 closed issues in JIRA with "fix for" 1.0-alpha-9 will be correct, version-wise.

In short: we release doxia:doxia:1.0-alpha-9 and doxia:doxia-sitetools:1.0-alpha-9, separately but simultaneously.

After the releases we can create a new JIRA project for doxia-sitetools and move sitetools issues there from DOXIA. And let each project have their own versions.

Creating a separate thread for release questions...

Do we have two releases in reality? On one hand we have doxia:doxia (currently slated for alpha-9) and on the other we have doxia:doxia-sitetools (currently slated for 1.0). Is everybody OK with those versions?

I am not. Having two different versions for these two will totally mess up JIRA. Therefor I'd like to use 1.0-alpha-9 for both, this time. If we want separate releases for them in the future, then we need two separate projects for doxia and doxia-sitetools in JIRA.

In order for the maven-site-plugin to be able to use the new doxia:doxia we need to release doxia:doxia-sitetools.

Are there any other questions regarding the release?
