Hi;
We are planning to release the M1 version of the
OpenWebBeans . So far we have finished the some parts of the
specification and the nearly all of the build and release management
tasks.
M1 release will support the following items;
* Simple WebBeans Support
* Producer Method Support
* Event and Observer Support
* Decorator and Interceptor Support
* Experimental XML Configuration Support
* Lookup and Dependency Injection Support
* Java EE Plugin Support (via ServetContextListener interface)
Remaining parts of the specification that we did not handle in this
release are the following items;
* Enterprise WebBeans Support
* JMS WebBeans Support
* Producer Field Support
* Servlet Injection Support
* Inheritance and Realization Support
* Common Annotations Support
* Full Support for Validation Checks
* Passivation Scope and Serialization Operations
* Full Support for XML Configuration
* Java EE Container Integration Support (SPI)
? What do you think about the content of the M1 release ?
? Has it enough functionalities to create the release or we may
delay it to another date for adding more functionality ?
? What is your further comments and advices?
IMO, that's enough for a M1 release.
I built the current trunk code and took a quick review. Here are some
comments...
* I think the LICENCE file needs to reference the licences directory.
I'd actually recommend that these be renamed LICENSE
* The NOTICE file does not conform to the requirements of the ASF. See
-- http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#notice (e.g. there's
no COPYRIGHT)
* Also, I doubt that the contents of the NOTICE file is correct. All
it does is provide attribution to embedded projects. However, some
licenses (e.g. ASL requires that NOTICES be reproduced).
* The binary distributions do not contain the licences directory. The
licenses must either be in the LICENSE file, or you must create a
licenses directory. I actually prefer a single license file, but
licenses dirs are used by some projects. As long as all licenses are
available, I'm ok either way.
* All OpenWebBeans jars/wars/etc. need to contain a META-INF/LICENSE
and META-INF/NOTICE files
* Hmmm. Seems like "webbeans-impl.jar" be "openwebbeans-impl.jar"
Enough for tonight...
