[Jakarta Wiki] Update of JakartaBoardReport-June2006 by HenriYandell
Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on Jakarta Wiki for change notification. The following page has been changed by HenriYandell: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta/JakartaBoardReport-June2006 -- - == June 2006 Board Report == + = Jakarta Report = - === Status === + == June 2006 == - This quarter saw HiveMind becoming a TLP - it is waiting on its infra requests to complete its move. The proposal for JMeter and Cactus to form a testing.apache.org TLP was tabled by the board until the following month (the meeting this report is for). + Sent to the board and published at: [http://jakarta.apache.org/site/pmc/board-report-june2006.html] - There was a lot of activity on the Jakarta General mailing list - first passing a vote to merge SVN karma and then rejecting a vote to move the Commons Sandbox up to the Jakarta level. The concept of Jakarta containing a set of Xxx Components groupings has some momentum, and there were various threads of discussion concerning the chair's pushing of Jakarta to thinking of itself as a single community and not a set of communities. - - Struts suggested Tiles as a first component within a Web Components grouping - but nothing has happened as yet. Geronimo are hoping for a Commons Modeler release soon to help with their 1.1 release. There was discussion as to how best to handle copyright dates - Cliff is aware of this but we haven't brought it up on legal-discuss yet. - - === Releases === - - * 15 June 2006 - Commons Chain 1.1 Released - * 13 June 2006 - JMeter 2.2 Released - * 8 June 2006 - Commons FileUpload 1.1.1 Released - * 06 June 2006 - BCEL 5.2 Released - * 14 May 2006 - Commons Collections 3.2 Released - * 14 May 2006 - Commons Logging 1.1 Released - * 08 May 2006 - Commons HttpClient 3.0.1 Released - * 25 April 2006 - Commons SCXML promoted out of Commons Sandbox - * 23 April 2006 - HttpComponents HttpCore 4.0-alpha1 Released - * 13 April 2006 - Tapestry 4.0.2 Released - * 03 April 2006 - Commons Pool 1.3 Released - * 01 April 2006 - Tapestry 3.0.4 Released - * 01 April 2006 - Tapestry 4.0.1 Released - * 26 March 2006 - Cactus 1.7.2 Released - * 24 March 2006 - Commons Validator 1.3.0 Released - - === Community changes === - - New committers - - * 26 March 2006 - Roland Weber (rolandw) - - - PMC - - * 27 March 2006 - Emmanuel Bourg (ebourg) - * 14 June 2006 - Aaron Smuts (asmuts) - - === Infrastructure news === - - Subversion karma within Jakarta has changed this quarter so that any member of Jakarta has access to any part of Jakarta with the exception of Jakarta POI which has concerns over NDAs concerning its subject matter. - - Jakarta Commons and Jakarta HttpComponents both moved from Bugzilla to JIRA. - - === Subproject news === - - BCEL - - The main contributors have left the project over the years. Obviously still quite a few users though. With a few people we managed so apply the outstanding patches and close many bugs. After 3 years we just released BCEL 5.2 as a bugfix release. Due to the lack of recent activity at least 2 communites (findbugs and aspectj) are known to have forked BCEL and maintain their own version. They have implemented features (JDK1.5 support, speed and memory handling improvements) that we would like try to port back. A GSoC student is currently trying to implement JDK1.5 and -if time permits- JDK1.6 support in BCEL. Contribution happens through jira without a special branch. We are in contact with the other communities. No one is excited yet - we got positive feedback. They are interested in JDK 1.6 support as well. We might have a chance to drag them back to BCEL. This could be a good chance to increase the number of active committers again. Hopefully we will see another relase afte r the GSoC. - - Unfortunately only few PMC members (at least two) are on the development list at the moment. - - BCEL moved to maven2 as build system. - - Cactus - - Cactus had a submission (regarding build Cactus with Maven 2 and providing a Maven 2 Cactus plugin) for the Google's Summer of Code initiative, but unfortunately it did not get ranked high enough to be accepted. On the brigher side, the student (Petar) said he would still want to contribute to the project, so we might get some activities in that direction in the upcoming quarter. - - We also had a nice patch regarding a new feature provided by an user, but it has not been incorporated to the source code yet. - - Finally, the Cargo integration has not been completed yet. - - Commons Chain - Commons Chain released version 1.1. This contained a number of enhancements and bug fixes, most of which had sitting in the repository a while (initial/last release was December 2004). - - Commons Collections - Commons Collections released version 3.2.

Re: testing.apache.org, take 2
Very good thread that I think is heading in the right direction. My thinking is that it should continue for the next month and be put in front of the board then if it has reached a good state. There's a security related one in front of the board this month, which has much of the same issues as the testing one so (I reckon) that'll be just as educational as pushing the current testing thoughts to the board.

Hi! There are rumours people are interested in a beer chitchat BOF kind of thing :) Say tonight 8pm at the bar? Shit, haven't had a computer with me during afternoon. Why such a tight timetable? Would be nice if there were 24 hours between the announcement and the meeting. --- Mario - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
