[Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
Please let's not widen this discussion into something else but the question which versioning policy we are to apply. Building some kind of "compatibility layer" could be done regardless of the next Lift version number. Do we have a consensus, that there are several substantial changes breaking source and binary compatibility? And do we have a consensus, that this is something which requires increasing the major version number?

Re: [Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
I guess this conversation should have taken place before we started doing milestone releases etc - stuff thats "broken" will have to stay "broken" now otherwise we'll be making more "breaking" changes just to un-break previous stuff...

Re: [Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
Interesting - this is something i've not actually thought about: If we were to compile a list of all the breaking changes in 1.1, perhaps that would give some focus to this discussion... as josh points out, there are most likely quite a few now and 1.0 -> 1.1 is a fairly short jump. Loc and LocParam Actor -> LiftActor Full,Box etc have moved packages JSON parsing alterations and changes in JsExp Im probably missing a number of others, but we are talking about some fairly significant breaks here, right?

Re: [Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
No argument there! My only point was that perhaps in scala a slightly different policy might make sense. Because certain features of scala are more backwards-compatable then others, and you are still forced to recompile your libraries/projects to all use the same scala version, I think whatever version system you use should focus on the following aspects: - Binary Comptability Issues - Internal changes on classes or object methods, no API changes. No need to recompile project - Minor API changes (additions of methods, internal method implementation changes not belonging to traits.). No Need to recompile project - Minor Trait implementation and API changes. Requires a recompile of anything extending from these traits. Binary incompatable as of how traits compile today. Source should still remain compatible. - Major changes -> similar to above, requires rebuild of project. - Source Compatability Issues - A project on previous version could be compiled against current version but with potential deprecation warnings - This could even include method signature changes if, e.g. an implicit conversion from one type of argument to the new argument is provided. I beleive is this implicit is @deprecated, then it will issue a warning on conversion. I know Mark Harrah uses this to acheive source-compatability across the SBT scalac plugin. - A project on the previous version could not be compiled against this version, re-writing code is required. My opinion on a version system for scala is as follows (unfortunately 2.8.0 breaks some of these rules...) X -> This X version implies source-incompatible changes from previous X versions X.Y -> The Y version implies source-compatible, but binary incompatible changes from previous X versions. X.Y.Z -> The Z version implies internal changes such that only classes/objects extending traits need to be recompiled. X.Y.Z.A -> The A Version implies a completely internal change such that no recompilation is necessary (I don't see these happening all that often in real life.. Traits are far to useful!). This adds an additional layer from the normal OSGi versioning system. My reasoning is that we hope X.Y.Z.A version numbers disappear (in favor of X.Y.Z) as research into how to compile traits for the JVM improves. Notice as well that X.Y is only *source* compatible. Not binary-compatible. That's the other difference from an OSGi perspective. The real question is, with all these breaking changes in lift 1.1, has any attempt been made at source-compatability? If not, I would argue a bigger version jump than 1.1. Also, there is the possibility of taking the version system and adding a "functionality milestone" version at the begginning. In this case, you can use that number for marketting purposes (e.g. "Lift goes 1.0!). Your version number would then be In this case, perhaps a "1.1" release makes sense vs. a "1.0" release. The question is, should it have been 1.0.2 or 1.0.0.2? Anyway, those are my thoughts, let me know what you think. - Josh On Sun, Nov 22, 2009 at 4:33 AM, Heiko Seeberger < seeber...@weiglewilczek.com> wrote: > 2009/11/21 Josh Suereth > > I think eclipse and maven might be two of the only projects following that >> convention (besides others in the eclipse ecosystem). > > > I think that Spring also follows the recommended OSGi versioning policy, > but to be sure I will check with some of the Spring folks.

Folks, I would like to bring this version discussion to an end. I would prefer 2.0 but, I am also cool with 1.1. If there are still unheard arguments for 2.0, please speak out now. For me it is important that there is a version policy in place, such that everyone knows what's the difference between a change to 1.1 or to 1.0.2. As we probably will stick to Lift 1.1, IMHO the version policy has to be: "Increasing the major or minor version number means breaking changes, increasing the micro version number keeps the API stable.".

The reason I created Box in the first place is that Option doesn't give you the ability to capture reasons for None (yeah, there's Either... although there wasn't when I introduced Box [Can at the time], but you can't use Either in a for comprehension). In reviewing the JSON code, there's actually nothing that I'd change in the APIs.

There are places in the code that are currently Option[] and they should likely stay that way (stuff that's related to Scala's XML attributes deals with Option, but not Box). I'd like to see the JSON stuff moved from Option to Box, but that's Joni's call. If there are additional Option that should be Box, let's see what they are. In terms of renaming stuff, Kris opened a thread on this. Now is the time to suggest changes.

Re: [Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
David, I'm really sorry if I came across badly, like if it sounded cynical or something. I did not mean it that way! Everything you wrote about how much toil you put into this project, that's exactly my point! It's your brainchild, you started it, and you keep it going, and that's why I said is that the final decision is up to you. I know we had a couple of disagreements about names, and as I told you then: I will be happy to debate as long as it's up for discussion; but when you make a final decision, that's your right. I'm not being bitter about it! I mean it 100%. When someone announced they were starting a new forum for Lift, I was the one who said, let's see if DPP minds. @Heiko: I didn't mean that it's DPP's in the sense that it's his toy, not yours and everyone else's opinion is irrelevant! I meant exactly what you responded. But it's not random that the decision maker is DPP. It's all thanks to him after all. So I agree wholeheartedly with everything DPP and Heiko replied, and I'm sorry if I implied otherwise. Gratitude is one of the primary distinctions between man and animal. - David Pollak wrote: On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 11:08 PM, Naftoli Gugenheim wrote: > I agree.

Yes, I do have the final word. But think about our conversation when you wanted to add XML for configuring menus in SiteMap. Did I say, "no"? I said, "It's not the way I'd do things, but add it and let's see if people adopt it." When Marius abstracted the Servlet stuff out of Lift, he went about it in a way different than I would have, but I think his results are awesome. There are lots of decisions about Lift that are not my personal inclination, but if they hold together then they work.

More broadly, Lift mentally hangs together pretty well. Yes, there's room for improvement. Yes, there are folks with more FP experience than I have who can and are lending excellent perspectives to the code base (take a look at Kris's recent additions). But there's general coherence across the framework. Keeping something hanging together well and keeping people who have no reason to participate except that they want to motivated is non-trivial. Pile onto this the fact that most of the committers are probably the smartest guys in their class. They are among the top 1% of coders in whatever company they work for. Each of the committers is remarkable on his/her own. So, we've got a collection of folks who are 3 standard deviations out in their field who are all opinionated and used to being right almost all the time. I have the challenge of keeping this tremendous group of people aligned and motivated. Now, intersect this with the current time-constraints. I have been a nanny-less single parent for nearly the past month. Derek is traveling with his family and Marius and Tim are busy at work. Debby's been occupied with other gigs so I have less process help than I usually do. I have to balance between debates, supporting the increasing number of production sites (and, yes, Naftoli, I have supported your production site... I was sitting in this line: http://www.uplifting.me/the-h1n1-vaccine-line coding fixes for your tickets to receive a "the names you chose, they're not so good" feedback from you), the Scala 2.8 port, and the flood of newbies on the list. So, yeah, I don't spend 2+ hours a day debating... I make shorter fuse decisions. But, the "it's DPP's ball and he'll do with it what he wants" kind of feedback bugs me at a very, very core level. > - > Jonathan Ferguson wrote:

Re: [Lift] Re: Call it Lift 2.0
2009/11/17 Naftoli Gugenheim > But it's up to DPP because it's his project. > Of course David kicked off Lift and he is "managing the project actively". Yet there is also a huge Lift community. Hence I do not agree calling Lift "his project". And even though I do not agree with every decision, I think that it is very beneficial for Lift to have a decision maker like him. Just look at the figures: There are 30+ committers and 1500+ members in this list. Ain't that successful?

If you want to improve names, propose it on this list. Kris just opened up a thread on that and you've been silent. Now is the time to improve method names. Now is the time to suggest alternative class names. It's not going to be wholesale breakage, but the really bad stuff can be renamed and the rest can be politely deprecated. > But it's up to DPP because it's his project. > > Please note how I approached this conversation. I didn't say "no." I didn't say, "over my dead body." I gave my perspective on how much Lift has progressed since 1.0... and I think I've got the experience with Lift to be able to say that. I give a lot of deference to Heiko in terms of his OSGi experience. I have my opinion, but I'm listening and being swayed. So, yes, I have made some decisions that have gone counter to others. Yes, I do have the final word. But think about our conversation when you wanted to add XML for configuring menus in SiteMap. Did I say, "no"? I said, "It's not the way I'd do things, but add it and let's see if people adopt it." When Marius abstracted the Servlet stuff out of Lift, he went about it in a way different than I would have, but I think his results are awesome. There are lots of decisions about Lift that are not my personal inclination, but if they hold together then they work. When things don't work or there's a particular corner case (e.g., Alex's changes to the type erasure issue in Req that I have 2+ years of experience with and he has none), I pull out my veto stamp. Maybe it feels like I do this a lot, but I think that's generally because of lot of stuff happens without a lot of disagreement and it's only when I have to disagree with folks who I have a ton of respect for, there's an "energy spike" on the list and that's what people remember. More broadly, Lift mentally hangs together pretty well. Yes, there's room for improvement. Yes, there are folks with more FP experience than I have who can and are lending excellent perspectives to the code base (take a look at Kris's recent additions). But there's general coherence across the framework. Keeping something hanging together well and keeping people who have no reason to participate except that they want to motivated is non-trivial. Pile onto this the fact that most of the committers are probably the smartest guys in their class. They are among the top 1% of coders in whatever company they work for. Each of the committers is remarkable on his/her own. So, we've got a collection of folks who are 3 standard deviations out in their field who are all opinionated and used to being right almost all the time. I have the challenge of keeping this tremendous group of people aligned and motivated. Now, intersect this with the current time-constraints. I have been a nanny-less single parent for nearly the past month. Derek is traveling with his family and Marius and Tim are busy at work. Debby's been occupied with other gigs so I have less process help than I usually do. I have to balance between debates, supporting the increasing number of production sites (and, yes, Naftoli, I have supported your production site... I was sitting in this line: http://www.uplifting.me/the-h1n1-vaccine-line coding fixes for your tickets to receive a "the names you chose, they're not so good" feedback from you), the Scala 2.8 port, and the flood of newbies on the list. So, yeah, I don't spend 2+ hours a day debating... I make shorter fuse decisions. But, the "it's DPP's ball and he'll do with it what he wants" kind of feedback bugs me at a very, very core level. > - > Jonathan Ferguson wrote: > > I was thinking about this earlier, if there is to be a 2.0 I would hope > there was a chance to remove deprecated code. > Which particular deprecated code are you thinking. > Also consider making breaking > changes @dpp hasn't been in favour of making to date. > Which changes are you thinking about? > Not to annoy him.

If there are any folks who want to step up and maintain a branch (or if there's money to hire someone), it's something worth a discussion, but I don't think there's anyone I know of who could maintain a 1.X branch if we're going to get radical with a 2.X.

What you call "no changes to the API, but changes to the implementation', I call "completely destroy my expectations of how this works, and therefore creates a show stopper bug for me." Which, by your logic should have been a more major number. And this entire argument proves my point. I can counter every argument you have for your scheme with real world epic fails that happened because one person version of minor, is another persons version of major. The behavior of a method, it's implementation is part of the contract I have with the library. If you change the behavior I depend on, then that's major. No matter how minor you might think the change. Moving from a hashmap to a list is a huge change, for a sufficiently large set of data for instance. I can think of several hundred other "minor" implementation changes you can make, that can have drastic consequences to the calling code. So, just because you, or some committee think that the change is "minor", I still have to thoroughly test everything that uses your library. So calling it minor doesn't do me any good. As to your "As Lift also is to support OSGi (already some support in place) it would be beneficial to stick to this version policy" comment. I counter with "Lift works on Ubuntu it would be beneficial to stick to this version policy" and of course "Lift runs on scala it would be beneficial to stick to this version policy", or better yet "Lift runs on the Java VM it would be beneficial to stick to this version policy." All three of my arguments have far more to do with Lift running then OSGI does. Most important it's not KISS. At least Ubuntu's year.month is simple. Most importantly it tells you that you need to test your stuff to make sure it works because stuff has changed. That's what I really need to know, that and how old is my library. How old is version 2.3.1? A year? two years? 6 months? How do I know when to go looking for an updated version of the library? > I think a 2.0 needs more time with a 2.0 mindset. > > Once 2.0 is on the table there may be more redesign involved. > > > I disagree: Versions should not express a mindset but information about > (non)breaking API changes.

We sure can follow this for 1.1 series too. The only addition could be to start with an actual micro version (1.1.0 instead of 1.1). The other situation where a software bumps up to next higher version is when it move to a major upstream products (and breaks backward compatibility for the better). Seeing through Lift, we can possibly state: Lift 1.1.x: on Java 5/6 and Scala 2.7/2.8 [supports 2.8.x but backward compatible with 2.7.x] Lift 2.0.x: on Java 6 and Scala 2.8 [moving away from backward compatibility with Java < 6 and Scala < 2.8.x and hence *major* backward incompatible change] - Indrajit > > Heiko > > My job: weiglewilczek.com > My blog: heikoseeberger.name > Follow me: twitter.com/hseeberger > OSGi on Scala: scalamodules.org > Lift, the simply functional web framework: liftweb.net -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group.
