We will create a "1.0.0" branch as per the existing release process at http://openjpa.apache.org/releasing-openjpa.html , so that if anyone objects to the release for technical reasons (e.g., misplaces license file), we can make those repairs in the "1.0.0" branch and then re-cut the release without worrying about other changes that may have been slipped into the trunk.

Whether or not we have a parent "1.0" branch to the "1.0.0" branch is not something I have considered. Does anyone have any thoughts about this? If so, we'll need to make it clear to people what work should go into the "1.0" branch and what work should go into the trunk. Since we don't have much of a long-term roadmap yet, it might make sense to wait until we know which major features will go into OpenJPA 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, etc. However, I don't have strong objections to making a "1.0" branch.

Thoughts?

Well, I definitely don't think that work should happen in a branch
called 1.0.0. Rather, it would seem that we would want to create a
branch called 1.0, and tag from it.

I think that we should make a 1.0 branch tonight, and then all future
work in the 1.0 line will happen in it. So, if something goes wrong
while building / voting on the release, we'll resolve those issues in
the 1.0 branch, not in trunk. That way, people can keep on working on
trunk, which will immediately become the 1.1 train.

Patrick-

I expect that we'll keep the "1.0.0" branch around, and then make a
"1.0.0" tag once the release is cut and approved.

What happens with the "1.0.0" branch (i.e., if 1.0.1 work takes place
in the 1.0.0 branch or in trunk) is, I believe, a topic that has yet
to be discussed.

Hi,

I think that we should be making a permanent 1.0 branch, and then tag
off of it, so that we have somewhere to work on 1.0.1. Or do things
work differently in svn?

OpenJPA Developers-

Pursuant to the vote at http://www.nabble.com/-DISCUSS--set-a-
deadline-for-1.0.0-features-t4233167.html , a branch for OpenJPA
1.0.0 will be created tonight at 11:59 PM EST, and a release
candidate will be immediately created for voting on the final 1.0.0
release.

If anyone needs more time for essential bugfixes, now is the time to
speak up.
