Interesting. I agree we are talking about some potential "big" features in
the 2.x development stream.
On the other hand, is release 2.0 required to be super set of what we have
in 1.x? Does it have to include all the "big" themes we are proposing. IMO,
the themes can be delivered via one or more incremental 2.x releases. In
some cases, even one theme will deserve to have a release.
Thanks,

Having themes with major releases is a good idea.
Here are a few themes I have in mind:
* OSGi enablement with clean SPI and modularity
* Consistent SCA domain story (deployment and management)
* QoS: Improved Policy Framework with transaction and security
* JEE/SCA integration

We've agreed that we are going to develop OASIS compliant function in trunk.
I just started a discussion on what the starting point is. But what are the
themes for trunk up to the 2.0 release? What would we hope to be announcing
in the release notes that are going to get people excited? What are this
things that are going to make the code base easier to work with?
OASIS is clearly on the list. Ant's survey should help. But what else?
IMO this is not really about a detailed shopping list of code changes but
more about themes (as per the thread title), i.e. more the what than the
how.

I was pinged off list about why I was suggesting an imminent 2.0 release. I
tried to pick my words quite carefully in starting this thread but obviously
not carefully enough. I'm not pushing any particular timescale for a 2.0
release but simply suggesting that we work out what is on the roadmap that
takes us to 2.0. I would imagine that in order to get to 2.0 we will go
through a number of iterations and alpha/beta release. So what do we want to
do and what order do we need to do it in to get to 2.0 eventually is the
question on the table here;-)
