Apologies for the long delay in responding to this.

I am concerned about the number of significant JIRAs that are open
against the current trunk code.  I have been working on two of these
that I consider to be "must fix" for 1.1.  They are TUSCANY-1849 and
TUSCANY-1939.  I have a fix for TUSCANY-1939 that is ready to commit
today, and I will then turn my attention to TUSCANY-1849.  After I
have committed a fix for this, I will look at Simon's list and resolve
as many of the others as I can before 1.1 is frozen.

As an experiment I looked down the first page of the outstanding bug

I was looking for the sort of thing which showed a failure of some

of Tuscany, didn't obviously have a work round and that wasn't obviously
some kind of enhancement from what we have already. Difficult to apply

this

consistently and I'm sure we would all come up with different lists. Non

the

trying to address as many of the release build related bugs as I can.

I'm

not counting them for this purpose). Just be multiplying that up for the
remaining pages that gives us over 30 must fixes before 1.1.  So if you
are planning to work on the release during the rest of the year please

use

this as a guide.

In reality I know we won't get these all done but we need to ensure 1.1.
is of suitable quality. Perhaps a more realistic way of looking at this

is

if we we had to do 2 each before we start voting on a release candidate

in

January which two would they be? I'm working my way though the

(hopefully)

straightforward release related JIRA but I expect the RC process will

raise

more of these so experience tells us we will have these to deal with

also.

Any thoughts about how we approach this?

As you may have noticed I've just moved over the rest of the easy JIRA
that
relate to samples for 1.1 and that mostly got deferred last time round.
These are primarily README type fixes and take little effort to either fix
or discount so I'll get on with them. I've still not had any feedback on
how
people feel about the harder technical JIRA that remain outstanding.

Currently I'm waiting for a few things before I can potentially cut the
branch. In particular,

JMS
Venkat's last policy changes (he's committed but there may be a few
adjustments to make)
Some help with the Saxon dependency

This means the formal branch won't happen for a couple of days yet.
However,


Should we get some more of the outstanding JIRA fixed for 1.1?
If so which ones (I moved some of the likely candidates to 1.1 before
Christmas but not all), i.e. who is going to do what ?

Personally there are a couple of domain related JIRAs I want to fix but I
need to know from everyone whether I should go ahead and cut the branch
(once I'm in a position to do so) or whether we are going to spend some
time
fixing JIRA.

Thanks

Simon



Does taking the branch have to wait for JMS? I'm a little behind so it may
be a day or two before the binding is in a releasable state but the branch
could still happen now and I'll can just copy over any changes.
