Just FYI, I fixed the blogroll list on the Roller blog, I just needed to
rename the blogroll folder in the vm template from "/Documentation" to
"Documentation", as we now use names instead of paths for bookmark folders.

I've upgraded my site to "Apache Roller Weblogger Version 5.1.0-SNAPSHOT
(r1618351)" and the blogs hosted on my Roller instance look pretty good:
http://rollerweblogger.org/roller/
http://rollerweblogger.org
http://photophys.com
I ran into a bunch of problems with my themes, but I believe all problems
were due to my schema, which had a bunch of pre-5.1 dev stuff present. I
should have time to roll a first release candidate next weekend.

I had some success testing 500-to-510 upgrade script against
rollerweblogger.org and blogs.apache.org.
With rollerweblgger.org, I had to use a custom version of the script
because the schema there is a mix of 5.0 and 5.1 stuff. Everything went
fine and blogging features seem to be working.
With blogs.apache.org, I did the database upgrade manually, as I expect
the Infrastructure will do and the migration script hit an error and exited
with it hit that drop-index call for "folder_namefolderid_uq." I was able
to omit that statement and get the rest of the upgrade to run successfully.
I added a comment to the upgrade script template to note that the drop may
fail, just so folks know it might be a problem -- it won't bea problem for
people who choose the automatic install, which is what we encourage in the
install guide.
I had to do some work to upgrade the two ASF themes used on
blogs.apache.org, but after that, things looked good and I think we'll be
ready when the blogs.apache.org chooses to upgrade.
I'll upgrade rollerweblogger.org to 5.1 tomorrow and report back later.

OK, now I'm done with the docs too, so done with everything. If others
on the team can start testing Roller trunk that would be good.
Dave, once the testing is all fine on your side, would you mind making
the release artifacts for 5.1 to hold the vote? The process has changed as
we're now on svnpubsub for builds, I've updated the guide here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/Release+Process, it
would be good for you to go through it once. If we have to make a 2nd,
3rd, etc., set of artifacts until the vote passes (most likely due to
coding errors I put in), I will take care of it from there.

Glen

Trackbacks are working fine, so I'm done now, coding-wise. Just
checking the install guide right now...

OK, I'm happy to report the first two items are done, also, Dual
DB/Open
ID security seems to run pretty well so we'll have 4 auth options
(everything except CMA) available. I just want to sanity check
trackbacks
tomorrow and then I'll be finished on my side for 5.1.

Hi team, things I see left for 5.1 (at least on my side):
-- Creating a blog post from the MediaFileFromEdit view is inoperative
perhaps as a result of recent changes I made, I need to revisit it.
-- Need to make sure the User Admin and Edit Profile are showing the
correct fields depending on the security implementation (LDAP,
OpenID, or
regular Database)--some have password fields, some don't etc. (We
may not
have Dual DB/Open ID ready for 5.1, I don't want to hold off a
release for
that though.) This is about halfway done.
-- Check that trackbacks work. I've never used them before and would
like to make sure they basically work.
There are many other tasks that can be done, but those can wait for
5.1.1
and onward. So long as 5.1 is more solid than 5.0.4, we should be OK
for a
release.

Glen
