I don't see a patch attached to the GSIP? No technical feedback for the
moment.
However, let me bring up this thread dated January 26 2012:
http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Time-to-start-the-GeoServer-2-2-0-long-release-process-td4340171.html
In that thread me (and GeoSolutions by proxy) was proposing to start
relasing GeoServer 2.2.x
before the GSIP storm that was accumulated could land on trunk, and in
order to have the 2.2.0
release sometimes in May (2/3 months from then)... not out of a whim, but
because we needed it.
Summary reaction to this:
- desire to get the security GSIP in before the release in the hope that it
would have been
ready within "two week". The actual work landed slightly more than two
months later (ok, delays happen)
- GSIP 69 is ensured not to land on 2.2.x (see Gabriel mail). Not it seems
it is.
Long story short, it seems that all the assurances were disattended and
we're back at
square one, while in January we had what seemed a rather good GeoServer
almost ready for release.
I'm not making a negative judgement on the technical work, both components
are welcomed
developments, but personally I'm rather disappointed.
Cheers
Andrea
