- TransactionStrategy (TransactionFactoryFactory, TransactionContext, AdoNetContext....)So far talk about NH-Transaction and talk of Ado.NET transaction, is in practice, the same. We have a configurable transaction.factory_class but without alternatives. The target of this work is recreate the same infrastructure of involved classes H3.2.6 have and allow NH to create and work with ambient-transactions.
- EntityMode.Xml I had port some initial tests to support EntityMode.Xml. It is a very interesting feature that allow NH work with Xml as entities representation. Not fundamental for NH2.1 but would be useful to have it ASAP. - Refactoring of Binders Old scheduled task. It is a refactoring of NHibernate.Cfg.XmlHbmBinding and related stuff. So far all binders are a mix between "Xml Parser" and the use of "Deserialize Hbm*" with some copy&paste. This work include: refactoring of XSD (to generate more reusable classes), refactoring of all binders to avoid XML parsing and use only deserialized classes, probably some little changes to NHibernate.Tool.HbmXsd. - JIRA Obviously a good place to read about some pending work is the JIRA. There are a lot of "things" to do with various difficult levels. NOTE: probably we must take a definitive decision about the pagination stuff of MsSQL2005 dialect. To release NH2.1, IMO, we need at least the management of TransactionStrategy + some bug-fixing. Personally I would like to begin a "new prj". The new prj is strictly related with NH-Core but I'll start it in another place (it is a really OLD story). The candidate code-name is : Rabbit's foot -- Fabio Maulo
