+1, and 2 months for 2.4 sounds good (side note: do a Solr release right after that?)
Otis ----- Original Message ---- From: Grant Ingersoll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 2:36:39 AM Subject: [VOTE] Migrate Lucene to JDK 1.5 for 3.0 release I propose we take the following path for migrating Lucene Java to JDK 1.5: 1. Put in any new deprecations we want, cleanups, etc. 2. Release 2.4 so all of Mike M's goodness is available to 1.4 users within the next 2-4 weeks using our new release mechanism (i.e code freeze, branch, documentation. I tentatively volunteer to be the RM, but hope someone will be my wingman on it). 3. Announce that 2.9 will be the last version under JDK 1.4 4. Put in any other deprecations that we want and do as we did when moving from 1.4.3 to 1.9 by laying out a migration plan, etc. 5. Release 2.9 as the last official release on JDK 1.4 6. Switch 3.0-dev to be on JDK 1.5, removing any deprecated code and updating ANT to use 1.5 for source and target. 7. Start accepting JDK 1.5 patches on 3.0-dev If possible, efforts should be made to identify people who are willing to backport 3.x changes to JDK 1.4 on 2.9 and give them branch commit rights, but this is not a strict requirement of this plan. Thus: +1 for JDK 1.5 as outlined in steps 1-7 0 if you don't care -1 if you are against it Since the weekend is coming up, how about we leave this vote open until Monday? You can see discussions of this here: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/ lists/lucene/java-dev/51421 Here is my +1.
