Folks,
I'd like to see us do a full 2.x release - not another Beta.
2.x has been around for a while and it's in pretty good shape. A full release is called for in my
opinion. If some samples aren't of the right quality, then leave them out for now - they can be
added back later once they are in acceptable shape.
Yours, Mike.

I've been trying to help a user get going with one of the samples
using the latest code but its ended up needing a bunch of change to
the sample pom.xml's to get it to work with the latest snapshot code.
One of the issues is if you checkout a sample like
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sca-java-2.x/trunk/samples/getting-started/helloworld/
and try to build it that doesn't work unless you've built trunk
locally.
So, wouldn't this be a similar issue if you get a released version of
the helloworld with a released version of tuscany compared to the most
recent snapshots ?
But thats just one of the reasons, its been ages since we did
a trunk release and there are lots of good changes in there. Last time
we talked about this I couldn't find three people who said they'd vote
for a release, If i just cut an RC of what the trunk builds now i
expect there are a lot of broken samples missing doc and and incorrect
readme's so whats the minimum we could do to fix that which would get
three +1s? If i just did a trunk source release + maven module release
but no binary distro would anyone vote for that? Or if i stripped out
all the samples or maybe except for one or two samples which really
worked and had good READMEs would you vote for that? Or what else
would it take?
...ant
What would be the "version name" for the release ? I think we should
do a regular milestone/beta release and I'd be ok if some samples
might be broken, but I wouldn't like to see source only distros, as
that would kind require the users to have to build anyway, unless they
are using maven which it's not really a requirement we have imposed
into users before.
Ok thats sounding more promising, i don't mind not doing a source only
release i just want _a_ release with the module jars in maven central,
i don't mind what its called 2.0-Beta3 or M6 or something else. So how
about if its called 2.0-Beta3 and based off the current trunk so the
samples and distro are as they are. I'll try and clean up some
helloworld samples but i wont have the time to make all of the samples
perfect.

What's the timeframe you are looking for ? I could look at some
samples and other minor cleanups over the weekend.

I can try and take a look through the samples over the next couple of
days and do some tidying.
