Dial-in numbers are:
866 230-6968 294-0479#
International: +1 865 544-7856
Agenda:
1. Test status (Michael)
2. Issues with staged release (any and all)
3. Integration and testing of JDO 2.0 release (Craig, others)
4. Other issues (any and all)
Action Items from weeks past:
[Mar 24 2006] Craig has instructions on creating a release, and will add
a wiki page with the instructions in case anyone else has an itch to
make a release.
[Mar 24 2006] Need to resolve serialization of a detachable instance for
durable storage. AI Craig: propose a solution for the specification.
[Mar 17 2006] AI Craig: review EG discussion on JDOHelper constructor
vs. newInstance(). Done. "There's no state in a JDOHelper instance so
there's really not much of a reason to use a singleton pattern."
[Mar 17 2006] Remaining issue: datastore identity strategy is
currently defined as IDENTITY but some datastores don't support
IDENTITY columns. AI CraIg: propose a solution. In progress
[Feb 3 2006] AI Michael W fix list of teardown classes in company
model reader. JDO-285. But this fix cannot be checked in until JPOX
is fixed.
[Jan 20 2005] AI Craig look at new life cycle tests to see if it can
fail at the end printing failure messages. AI Craig review the spec
updates to make sure the test is consistent. AI Craig: resolve the
test case and spec issues. Done. Martin will start with the code that
Michael W updated and will update the test case not to fail on the
first error.
[Nov 18 2005] AI: BEA to sign the donation paperwork for their test
suite. Review how to merge their test cases into JDO TCK. The latest
news in BEA is that BEA plans to donate their object persistence
engine to open source; it's not clear where they will do this,
perhaps in Apache as a sister project to Apache JDO. BEA's OpenJPA is
currently under consideration in the Apache incubator, so the
integration work might be facilitated once this is resolved.
[Nov 4 2005] AI Martin: Update Martin's wiki with discusion of JDK
1.5 issues. in progress
[Sep 2 2005] AI: To recruit members, update the web site. Articles on

Craig write a ServerSide article.
[July 29 2005] AI: Michelle Chapter 18 wiki needs to be updated to
include all JDO metadata elements and attributes.
