+1 We should get the federation story implemented for the next kernel release. I think the development for federation is looking in good shape, and we should most probably have an end to end story, for the TSSS demo with couple of transports. In terms of extensions we also need to look at porting some of the existing extensions to the new model in addition to adding new ones like Hessian. Also, we need to to look at the management side of things. I started on it a while ago, it currently supports only read-only props on components. We need to start thinking about how to take it further forward. Some of the other things we can look at (maybe not in this release) is support for non-XML wiring, maybe start looking at things like Guice?
Ta Meeraj -----Original Message----- From: Jim Marino [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2007 8:54 PM To: tuscany-dev@ws.apache.org Subject: Kernel Alpha2 Release I would like to start thinking about the next release of kernel. Based on the work being done around federation, it seems that multi- VM support is the key feature we should look to enable. This will allow us to demonstrate the high-value areas of SCA, particularly around distributed assembly. In addition, we should have a simplified extension model and classloader isolation in place. In terms of timing, I thought sometime around the first or second week in April would be ideal, as a few of us will be demonstrating these features at the ServerSide Symposium next week. I think we may also be able to get some bindings and extensions out around the same time or shortly after. I was thinking: Spring, Groovy, JPA, and Hessian to start. Thoughts?
