Releasing both camel and cxf based components sounds good. For Smx4, we have a choice we need to discuss and settle asap. Some time ago, servicemix kernel and components have been upgraded to spring-dm 1.2.0-m2. The changes on the spring configuration file used when deploying the components in servicemix 4 is incompatible with spring-dm 1.1.x. So in order to release servicemix 4, we have to either: * release all components with spring-dm 1.2.0-m2 configuration * revert components and kernel to spring-dm 1.1.x * wait for spring dm 1.2.0 ga before releasing kernel + components
I'm not really in favor of #3. If we don't want to release all components, we can revert back to spring-dm 1.1.x. The new feature of spring-dm 1.2.0 is mainly the ability to have updates in the osgi configuration admin propagated dynamically to spring beans, but we haven't leveraged that yet, so reverting is not a big deal at this point. However, we need to choose quickly. 2009/2/12 Gert Vanthienen <[email protected]>: > L.S., > > A while back, we separated the components into a separate build so they could > be shared between ServiceMix 3 and ServiceMix 4, but we also made every > component a Maven project on its own to allow them to be released > independently.
