Fellow Team, I'd like to share some of my ideas for improving the XML Graphics projects as we move forward:
- transition writeable source repository from SVN to GIT, making SVN a slave to the latter - transition build, test, and deployment system from Ant to Maven - update minimum JDK to 7 or perhaps even 8 - enable findbugs (from Maven site goals) by default - convert non-Junit tests (batik) to Junit - improve test coverage - triage bug list - revisit documentation, in its format, deployment, and content Overall, I want to bring XML Graphics more up to date with other "modern" Apache Project practices and tool sets. Please feel free comment on these matters. Regards, Glenn
