I think calling beta as we've done for other releases is fine. That should give more time for community discussion on a final and still get you the release you seem to need.
In the future know that starting a release and then consulting the list is not the right order. We'll chalk this up as an honest mistake, try to do better next time, and do our best to help you meet your 1 week urgent deadline this time. A general note to everyone. If anyone (committer or user) has a deadline where TomEE is a factor, I highly encourage notifying the list in advance of the "due date". As much as we'd like to have frequent enough releases to where this is not needed, we're not there yet. 2 weeks or less is too short. A month or more is good. -David On Mar 25, 2013, at 10:29 PM, Romain Manni-Bucau <[email protected]> wrote: > @David: any idea when you'll do the xml stuff? basically i can wait the end > of the week but no more (> 3 months, a bunch of rewrite about classloaders, > serialization etc, nothing we can put in 1.5.x but absolutely mandatory for > a bunch of use cases). > > *Romain Manni-Bucau* > *Twitter: @rmannibucau <https://twitter.com/rmannibucau>* > *Blog: **http://rmannibucau.wordpress.com/*<http://rmannibucau.wordpress.com/> > *LinkedIn: **http://fr.linkedin.com/in/rmannibucau* > *Github: https://github.com/rmannibucau* > > > > 2013/3/25 Bjorn Danielsson <[email protected]> > >> I actually ran GlassFish v2.1 on a Nokia N900 phone a couple of >> years ago, on OpenJDK for ARM.
