sebb,

one of the things I find useful about the build process that httpd, Struts,
Tomcat etc use is that it means anyone can do a build and then call for a
vote on it's quality.

If this process is streamlined enough, it means feedback can be extracted
from people more often and issues discovered earlier.

I know this isn't how things are done ATM with jakarta, but it's worth
thinking about.


I have been making regular nightly builds available, however it was
only when I created a formal build and called for a vote that various
issues surfaced.

So yes, it could be useful in future.

Do these quality check builds have to be tagged in SVN?
Or can they just be built from the current code line?

 Various problems have been found in the release, so I won't be
 proceeding with it.

 Thanks for all the feedback so far, which has been very useful.

 I have been able to fix most of the reported problems, but there are
 still some outstanding.

2007-07-09 Thread Dion Gillard

From looking at Struts SVN, I'm guessing that they're built and then tagged

from a revision of trunk and then that tag is voted on for quality.

Maybe one of the Struts/Tomcat committers can explain how they do it? Ted,
Don?

In Tomcat the committers agree on a release date the corresponding code 
is tagged binaries and source packages are prepared and made available 
for download.

People are asked to vote:
For example, the x.y.z tag is:
[ ] Broken
[ ] Alpha
[ ] Beta
[ ] Stable

After the vote the release is announced.  (Normally Stable is what we 
want to reach and announce).


Cheers

Jean-Frederic

 Ted,

Don?
