Re: svn commit: r670740 - in /openjpa/branches/wls-maintenance: ./ 1000mp1/

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with the approach taken so far. It's definitely not the most ideal, but it seems to be a fair approach given the situation (no branch was made at the time that WebLogic 10.0 shipped initially, and now there are changes that need to be made against that version).

1. this branch was created post facto, rather than up-front

2. the name of the branch has vendor connotations

As discussed earlier, with the 1.1.x branch, which was driven by us (WebLogic), we hope to minimize the changes made to the branch to important bugfixes only, such that we can simply track that branch moving forward. I expect that other organizations that push for a given release at a given time to dovetail with their release trains will have similar desires. It seems like the only differences between the case at hand and that more general sentiment are: Are your objections to issue 1 (i.e., the existence of a post-facto branch) or issue 2 (a vendor name appearing in a branch)?

I agree with Craig and Kevin. Vendor tags in the Apache SVN repository
should be avoided.


similar changes went in.


though.


should fit the naming conventions we've laid out.

I'm also leery of adding another branch to maintain. Patrick alluded to potentially dangerous changes which went into the 1.0.x branch which caused some concern for BEA. I'm guessing that rev 547073 is a point in time before If that's the motivation for creating a branch I'm not entirely opposed to it, but it should fit in with the rest of our naming conventions. I checked out rev 547073 and pom.xml lists the version as 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT. Any branch made at this point would be between 0.9.7 and 1.0.0. I'd suggest a name of 0.9.x for the new branch. The poms should be rolled back and so on - might have to do something to make OpenJPAVersion look correct to BEA customers Without looking at the differences between 547073 and 1.0.0 I can't say whether we really need this branch.

I agree with Kevin that we should eschew vendor tags in the OpenJPA
repository.


and 1.0.x branches as active code lines.


into an Apache svn branch.

What do others think?

It should be sufficient to have maintenance folks know from which branch a maintenance release was cut (r547073, openjpa/trunk/ is really where you shipped from??? After creating a 1.1.0 tag?). And we now have trunk, 1.1.x, The only reason that I can think of to have a vendor tag is so you can do vendor maintenance in it. And I don't think we want to do that. If you need to make patches for specific customers, it seems that a local repository would be appropriate. And once the patch is verified to work, put the update Wait a minute, Srinivasa.

seem that customers would appreciate using an official release (post
incubation) instead of the the one WebLogic initially shipped.


branch so that you can easily find the start of your service stream?


that you used.

It looks like WebLogic shipped something between the 0.9.7- incubating and the official 1.0.0 release. Is there some reason why you couldn't just support your WebLogic customers using the 1.0.x service stream? It would Do you need a complete branch? Or, are you just interested in tagging the I think we need to do something different here. I don't like the approach
