Hi All, As most of you know, I'm in splendid isolation at the moment so have a slight 'outside world' view. To that end, I felt it might be useful to make raise some questions/make some suggestions about M2. I hope they're useful to the Qpid project.
*RCs ?* M2 has been a little while in the pipeline. Are we close to building some RCs ? If not, do we have a real handle on what's needed to get there. The branch must be pretty elderly now. *Separate Releases ?* I've been wondering if we should consider building the RCs separately for the different language implementations of brokers/clients if there are significant differences in readiness, whether it be build/test systems or real code changes. We could then release on different schedules if that'd make things quicker and, perhaps, a lot easier to scope/manage. *Interop ?* We also have the thornier issue of interop - which was one of my real goals when I proposed M2. I'm wondering now if that was a bit ambitious or whether we've come on leaps and bounds since I went on mat leave ? Hth, Bfn, Marnie
