Hello everyone, Here is an update on the current progress of EE10, as the list has been a bit quiet for a few weeks now due to discussions on the lists of our dependencies.
We are currently blocked by the SNAPSHOT dependency towards BatchEE. The good thing is that a VOTE for 1.0.4 is currently running and will hopefully pass in the next few days, so we can move forward on our side and finally prepare a first milestone release of TomEE 10. # Why 1.0.4 and not 2.0.0 (as it passed the EE10 Batch TCK)? We have a chicken'n'egg problem on the BatchEE side with TomEE/OpenEJB. We cannot release BatchEE 2.0.0 without a TomEE 10 release artifact to avoid dependency ona SNAPSHOT. As TomEE 10 is CDI 4, we had to apply a fix in BatchEE 1.0.4 to be able to use the Jakarta relocated BatchEE artifact. As soon as 1.0.4 is out, I will add that + a test to "main". # Next steps Next steps (after the milestone release) will be (and might be a good point for contributions): - Set up the remaining TCKs + signature tests inside of TomEE - If there is enough interest, there might be potential for synchronized (remote) sessions here to bootstrap people in working on it (see discussion on the user@ list) - Get a picture of the current TCK status - Start filling missing pieces with code or challenge obscure tests ;-) We might also need to look into our dependencies (esp. CXF) to see, if we need to shift some resources into getting CXF 4.1.x out of the door. I know, that they are working hard on it. Gruß Richard
