Hi.

To summarize the feedback from the European time zone, I think that the
proposal in general meets the favor of everyone.

The controversial issue is the exact version number to use for the
release. There seems to be broad support for freeing the current Plone
trunk from a version designator and release a 4.0 release with the
envisioned scope of this proposal instead.

If I do not get a strong signal or message otherwise, consider this
proposal changed in this regard.


Since I finally found out about this and catched up on this thread, I  
wanted to give my


+1

to a Plone 4 with a reduced scope from the current trunk.

Regards,
Florian Schulze

Also +1 for a Plone 4 release.

A big +1. Perfect! Thanks Hanno for pushing this forward!

 BLOBs: Has the backups/repozo story been sufficiently worked out?

 this will need a good backup story, but it won't be via repozo.
 repozo was meant to backup a single data.fs, but not your entire
 zodb.  the blob storage will tend to be big and might live on some
 media with other backup strategies (think SAN or S3).  there should be
 some recipe or something that provides a single script to backup both
 for the standard use-case of having the blob storage live on the same
 filesystem, but that shouldn't be repozo.

I should clarify my question here.  Is there an issue with making sure
that the backed up BLOB directory is consistent with a particular backed
up state of the Data.fs via repozo.  IOW, can we say something like so
long as you restore your BLOB directory to a state as it was in the same
moment or after the repozo process started then it is guataneed to be
consistent?  I'm not saying that the above statement is correct cause I
don't know.  :) I'm just saying we'd need to be able to make some
promise about repozo backups of Data.fs and backups of BLOB directory
being consistent.

 Sorry if I'm resurrecting an already fairly resolved debate.  None of
 the concerns I raise here are enough to vote -1 one calling it
 4.0.  But if enough people feel as I do here, maybe we should discuss
 a little further.  What about plone 3.9?

 3.0.x was very buggy, and I think that has been somewhat saved by the
 upgrades to 3.1 and 3.2 being so painless. I think it would be, for
 that reason, a big mistake to introduce bigger changes in 3.X unless
 we can make sure the upgrade is quite painless and the changes are
 *very* stable.

Yeah, I guess trying to have a release line that can grow is trying to
have it both ways.  I'm very concerned about the expectations we've been
developing about Plone 4 and the impact that will have on perceptions
when we say, Yeah, that's plone 5 now or worse yet the even less
confidence inducing Yeah, that's plone trunk now.  But I guess the
right response to that issue is to be more disciplined in our messaging
in the future and *not* talk about release numbers before the release
process has had a chance to weigh in.  IOW, any perceptual/expectation
problems we have from this may be our just desserts.  :)

+1 to calling it 4.0.  +1 to constraining ourselves to not include
additional disruptive changes in the newly established 4.0 line and thus
to only include them in subsequent major versions.  +100 to not talking
about version 5 until the 5 FWT has actually done enough of it's process
to have some formal establishment of expectations.

Then I'll just have to buck up and tell people that a better skinning
story will *not* being Plone 4 afterall and that I can't tell them it
will be in Plone 5 and that somehow they shouldn't be discouraged by
that.  :(
