Hi Team, thanks everyone for committing the outstanding issues on time! As announced I created a Lucene 2.3 branch today from trunk revision r609842 here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/branches/lucene_2_3/
As of now a feature freeze on 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 "2.3" and priority "Blocker" will delay a release candidate build. If on January 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. We should also try to clean up old issues in JIRA. I opened LUCENE-1104 - LUCENE-1111 to track this. Let's keep up the great work! - Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
