qpid-dotnet-0-10-0.10-beta.
zip
qpid-ruby-0.10-beta.tar.gz
This will avoid giving false impressions about ongoing maintenance for
these
clients"
But I think that if we are going to actually do this, we should formally
vote for it, and move the codebases for these artefacts into an "attic"
directory or similar.
I'm not against removing unloved and unmaintained code... but I do
feel that
we should vote before adding or removing artefacts to/from the release.
Okay. I'll restore these to RC2 unless there's a vote to remove them.
I would find it hard to vote for a new release that contained those
artefacts unless someone could justify it through a list of changes
made[1] (this would also have the benefit of identifying possible
maintainers for those components to whom questions of support could be
directed). I.e. I think that a vote will be required to keep them in,
and it would be unfortunate to stall the whole release.
However I do agree that some more explicit 'consensus gathering' on this
is important since my previous mail did not result in any comments or
responses. Therefore...
...please reply with your +1 / -1 vote, or cross one of the boxes for
each of the cases below:
(a)
[ ] +1, qpid-dotnet-0-8-0.10 SHOULD be removed from the 0.10 release
[ ] -1, qpid-dotnet-0-8-0.10 should NOT be removed from the 0.10
release (please list changes it includes to support this vote)
(b)
[ ] +1, qpid-dotnet-0-10-0.10 SHOULD be removed from the 0.10 release
[ ] -1, qpid-dotnet-0-10-0.10 should NOT be removed from the 0.10
release (please list changes it includes to support this vote)
(c)
[ ] +1, qpid-ruby-0.10 SHOULD be removed from the 0.10 release
[ ] -1, qpid-ruby-0.10 should NOT be removed from the 0.10 release
(please list changes it includes to support this vote)
[1] My JIRA query may be at fault, but I can't see any JIRA for any of
those components fixed for 0.9/0.10
