It looks like the time for release is at hand as Geronimo is on the
cusp of 1.2 beta.
From an Incubator status we cleared up what was posted by Kevan and
me. Anyone want to double check that we are good to go in that area?
From a technical perspective when are we good to ship? Could we
cut today, tomorrow, next week? Any outstanding technical items
we'd need to get done for Geronimo's 1.2 beta?
Hi David,
I started looking at branches/v2_2/openejb2 last night.
There were a few files missing license headers. All of the NOTICE
files did not meet current Apache requirements, and there was no
DISCLAIMER file. I can commit these changes soon to branches/2_2 and
trunk/openejb2, soon.
There's a bit of work needed to identify any 3rd party license/notice
information that needs to be included in the OpenEJB license/notice
files.
Release notes/readme files need to be created. These should mention
that openejb is in incubator.
I have not run RAT against a binary distribution. So, there may be
some additional issues...
To make sure we're all thinking alike, here are the releases that I
see coming up in the very-near future:
2.2-m1 (corresponds to Geronimo 1.2 beta)
2.3-m1 (corresponds to Geronimo 2.0 M1)
I'm not aware of any technical problems which would prevent a release
of the above.
As soon as G 1.2 and OEJB 2.2 are passing TCK, there would be a 2.2
release. Agreed?
2.3 is kind of a dead-end version. I don't think we really see it
being a full release. Is there someway that 2.2-m1 could be shared
between the two Geronimo beta/milestone releases?
Later on, I assume we'll be generating a 3.0-m1. But that's a future
discussion...
