I'll have to check on what the deal is with the tck results. I'm not
sure what our current license conditions are with Sun (not my area of
expertise). I'll let you know what I find out from our legal team.

concerned though, we will have immediate access to the TCK at IBM once Sun
releases it. We'd be happy to run any alpha, beta and eventually final
releases of MyFaces 2.0 through the tck and work on fixing those bugs.
IMO that's fine, but you can't share the results if I remember correctly
I also think it would be a good idea to come up with a more formal way
of
keeping track of who is working on which items. As more folks become
involved, its going to become more and more likely that we'll step on
each
other's toes.
I agree, but JIRA only allows to assign ticket to commiters and I don't
have
anything better than adding a comment to the ticket for now. If you have
a
better idea it would be welcome.
Perhaps we could use the wiki ? Like creating an umbrella MyFaces 2.0
items wiki
page, which "links" the all the subtasks / issues .
Using the wiki may not be a bad idea. If we were to do that though, one
thing that would be of great help to my team at least would be to have the
work items mapped back to the changes in the spec where possible. Even
something as simple as an which section/subsection the change comes from.
I'd be happy to help out with that work, but I would guess Simon or someone
from his team could do it more efficiently since they did the initial
breakdown of the work into the JIRA issues.
I think so too. We can add that info to the wiki. something like:
ISSUE NAME MYFACES JIRA SPEC ISSUE
implement blah MYFACES-1234 SPEC-789 (all are linked to
the real resources)
-M
Does anyone have thoughts on any of the above? I'd be glad to work
with
someone from the PMC to assist in any of the required planning.
Michael, the right channel to communicate on the development of Apache
MyFaces
is this mailing list. If you/your team has questions, the best is to
use something
like [myfaces 2.0] in the beginning of the subject, so a mail can be
filtered easily.
We usually use other resources, like JIRA or the MyFaces wiki ([2]) to
"organize"
the work. You can create an account on those services and contribute some
work
there as well.
If you have more questions, please ask them here, as the community is more
than
willing to answer them.
