I'd like to get 1.1.1 out the door, but there's something screwey with GroovyBuilder. Can we, perhaps, deperecate GB and move it out to a seperate project (maybe on JavaForge). We can even use the existing Tapestry @ JavaForge site.
In terms of the rest ... we should discuss these things in public on the developer list. Things I want (no order) JDK 1.5 / Annotations & Generics support Specify default factory service for a module (to override hivemind.BuilderFactory) Introduce streamlined/improved factory based on Carman's work Maven 2 build; Maven 2 HiveDoc plugin More AOP interceptor stuff: ability to apply an interceptor to many services (I've been calling these interceptor sets) Code based builders / Java code to create service implementations (and maybe other things) based on annotations and/or naming conventions. Less XML. Fix the relationship between the service factory and the service lifecycle model to properly support event notifications to non-singletons (i.e., threaded and pooled) Some of these can be deferred to 1.3 if 1.2 happens fast enough Annotations / 1.5 is important and controversial; that has to be straightened out first.
