Dev's, I've been talking with several of the committers and many folks, myself included, will be on holiday for the last two weeks of the year. There is concern about the content (or lack thereof) due to limited participation during the first two weeks of iteration 2. The current iteration 2 schedule is 4 weeks long to account for the holiday, but that realistically won't give us much time to spend on iteration 2. Especially since we'd like to publish a milestone build after iteration 2.
One idea that came up in the discussions was to have a short 2 week iteration over the holiday; for folks that want contribute to OpenJPA 2.0 over the holiday. Then start a new, full iteration immediately in January. This would give us a full 3-week iteration before the milestone and more time and better participation for planning iteration 2 content. The proposed iteration dates are: "Holiday" iteration: Dec 22 - Jan 2 Iteration 2 : Jan 5 - Jan 23rd What do y'all think? -Jeremy
