I hope we don't need a single vote for every single issue, so please help with short and clear "vote like" answers to the points (I prefer a clear -1 than a long discussion: at least with a -1 we don't delay the next release).

--- Add a default hardcoded configuration for the SMTPHandlerChain
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-496

(I would also like to remove the default handlerchain configuration from the default config.xml and maybe add it to a commented complete config.xml)

3 +1 Stefano, Norman, Vincenzo
1 -0 Bernd

if no other votes in few days I'll backport it.

--- Decide what to do with repository implementations configured by default (db/dbfile/file)

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-536

I think we should put dbfile by default in the advanced config, but use db or file by default in the default config.xml. I have no real preference between the 2. I use db, but I think that most "first time" users would better understand the file repositories.

db:
2 +1 Stefano, Norman

file:
3 +1 Stefano, Vincenzo, Bernd

dbfile:

if no one else raise his voice on this issue we should change the default to "file" for users and mail repository.

Ok i changed it to file and closed the issue.

--- Remove RepositoryManager and cornerstone-store-impl
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-515

+1 to remove it (backport the trunk change)

(Bernd already replied against this, but it is not clear to me wether it was a -0 or a -1, so please cast a veto if you think it is needed, otherwise we can count the votes: please don't answer that we should decide the real plan because I don't believe we can actively discuss about what is alpha/beta/rc and what should teoretically be included in the branch. I really prefear e real vote on a real issue. We don't have a generic rule but at least we know if we agreed to include it or not).

+1 Stefano, Norman
-0 Bernd
-1 Vincenzo *VETO*

This doesn't need more votes, I just removed this issue from our 2.3 roadmap.

--- Functionality of DNSServer.getByName(String) is not symetric to java.net.InetAddress.getByName(String)

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-302

I would like to move this out from the 2.3 roadmap (2.4). We'll discuss wether to include this or not in 2.4/3.0 later.

4 +1 Stefano, Norman, Vincenzo, Bernd (WOW, the same for all ;-) )
Updated JIRA (removed from the 2.3 roadmap)

--- Once we'll have decided what to include and included it we are ready for the next release. Do we want to call it 2.3.0b2 or 2.3.0rc1 ?

here is my vote:
+1 for 2.3.0b2
+0 for 2.3.0rc1

2.3.0b2
3 +1 Stefano, Norman, Vincenzo
1 +1 Bernd (if we include JAMES-496)

2.3.0rc1
+1 Stefano
+1 Bernd (if we don't include JAMES-496)
-1 Norman

I think we have to stick to 2.3.0b2 because 2.3.0rc1 has a -1.

I whould like to change it to +1.. after using for a while now.

I hope to put the current branch 2.3 in production in the next few days and keep an eye on it for a week or so. It should be a good test.

Ciao,

Vincenzo
