Hi,
A bit late here is the 2nd edition of the almost weekly newsletter on what is going on in Apache Jackrabbit Oak. - There will be an Oak Hackathon at .adaptTo(Berlin) 2012. The event is still open for registration. See http://adaptto.mixxt.de/networks/events/show_event.65841 - Jukka started to document the internal node state model used in Oak core. This is a great place to start for newcomers: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jackrabbit/oak/trunk/doc/nodestate.md?view=markup - A MongoDB based Microkernel implementation has been contributed by Philipp Marx. This is currently under review but we expect it to make its way into the code base. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-293 - Test coverage improved and lead to a small spike in the number of failing tests. This is due to the TCK counting tests as passed which have not been executed because of missing content. Since this content is now in place more tests actually run (and fail). See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-6?focusedCommentId=13455014&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13455014, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AqWOLyLNdfKedFl2eXdEYmFLRnhNQWx5WUNtcU5hZXc&output=html - Basics of node type validation are in place now. There are still some loose ends however. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-66?focusedCommentId=13454846&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13454846 - There is a new validator for checking uniqueness of the jcr:uuid property. Some of this work is duplicated by the indexing and query mechanism. We will probably have to unify these further down the line. See: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/jackrabbit/oak/trunk/oak-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/oak/plugins/unique/ - There seem to be quite some progress with query and indexing. Thomas, Alex, could you provide a short overview what was going on in the area during the last couple of days? Michael
