I agree! But I would like to know how many do use shale. Active user.
At 
the moment we have only 7 Feedbacks so the currently result is very poor
to
be evaluated .

Shale Roadmap

2008-02-06 Thread linux.eavilesa

Hi all,

I've been tracking user and development mailing lists during some time, 
and I think that people is getting (including me) a little bit nervous 
about Shale project.
I think that the main reason why is the fact that there is not a well 
defined road map now for the project and many of as have bitten to use 
Shale in front of other frameworks.


First of all decide if Shale has a future (that I think that it does) 
and redefine or reinforce the project goal.


So in my opinion we should focus on defining or determining three key 
concepts:
· Define the project team organization,  mainly the project leader  and  
the development team.

· Determine the release of the stable version (date and who will lead it)
· Analyze each module and decide which must eliminated and which is 
worth keeping alive


You will say

Thanks for your time.

Esteve

Hi,

I'm not a Shale user or regular reader of this mailing list, although I 
gave it a look about a year ago.  JSF 2.0 is going to be standardizing 
the best ideas from Shale's Clay, View Controller, Tiger extensions, and 
other features.  JSF 2.0 is doing the same with facelets, jsftemplating, 
Seam, AJAX4JSF, etc.   Once JSF 2.0 is out, will there be a need for 
bolt on frameworks like Shale, Seam, JSF Templating, Facelets, AJAX4JSF, 
etc?


If I had the skills necessary to maintain a sophisticated framework like 
Shale I would join the JCP and help standardize the best features.



Thanks,
Ryan

Well, we do sort of have a roadmap (or at least a tool for creating one):


https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-panel

As you can see we're pretty close to a release. All that remains is
some people to complete the few remaining 1.0.5 tickets and do the
release work.

  

· Define the project team organization,  mainly the project leader  and
the development team.



The Shale PMC is responsible for these kinds of decisions. Apache
projects don't have a single leader. Rather, they are led by the
people who do the work - namely the PMC. The best way to get involved
is continued participation in the mailing lists (a similar discussion
is happening on the dev list so you should sign up for that as well)
and adding some patches to the Jira tickets.

  

· Determine the release of the stable version (date and who will lead it)



I think 1.0.5 could easily become a stable (GA) version if we can get
it out the door. Since the work is done by volunteers we don't have
dates for the releases. It will happen when someone is motivated
enough and has time to do it.

  

· Analyze each module and decide which must eliminated and which is
worth keeping alive



Search the archives for info on this. Some discussion along that line
has already taken place. For example, we have decided to discontinue
support for Shale-Tiles in favor of the MyFaces Tomahawk Tiles 2 view
handler.  Other things were discussed as well but no firm decisions
were made.

There seems to be a lot of interest in seeing Shale move forward. I
hope some of that interest will generate new activity.
Greg

and rightly so - the trends are stark:

Overall: http://shale.markmail.org/search/?q=
Dev: http://tinyurl.com/2d3e92
Commits: http://tinyurl.com/2synvm

Unless those trends start to reverse, the only glimmer of hope on the
horizon is/was the proposal to move the code to MyFaces.
