Hello Team, well, first of all, let's take a deep breath! Behind us are a couple of busy weeks. I would like to take this chance to thank everyone very much for the great work! We're on track for our 2.2 release on the 19th of June.
As announced I created a Lucene 2.2 branch today from trunk revision r545056 here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/branches/lucene_2_2/ As of now a feature freeze of this branch is in effect. In detail this means to the committers: - No new features may be committed to the branch. - Documentation patches, build patches and serious bug fixes may be committed to the branch. However, you should submit *all* patches you want to commit to Jira first to give others the chance to review and possibly vote against the patch. Keep in mind that it is our main intention to keep the branch as stable as possible. - All patches that are intended for the branch should first be committed to trunk and then merged into the branch. - Normal trunk development may continue as usual. However, if you plan to commit a big change to the trunk while the branch feature freeze is in effect, think twice: can't the addition wait a couple more days? Merges of bug fixes into the branch may become more difficult. - *Only* Jira issues with Fix version "2.2" and priority "Blocker" will delay a release candidate build. If on June 17th none of those issue are in Jira I will build a release candidate and call a release vote on java-dev. We should make use of this feature freeze and spend the next 10 days for extensive testing and javadoc improvements. Also help with the maven patch (LUCENE-622) is welcome. Let's keep up the great work! I'm very confident that version 2.2 will be a good one! - Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
