Hi, everyone. After too much delay (very much my own doing), 0.28 alpha is ready for evaluation.
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/qpid/0.28-alpha/ http://people.apache.org/~jross/maven-0.28-alpha/ http://people.apache.org/~jross/qpid-0.28-alpha-testing.txt It's from revision 1574236 of trunk. My testing shows failures in the cpp tests. Please take note that this is an alpha release. It must be used only for testing. As of 0.28, I'm using new scripting to generate releases (more on this in a subsequent mail). As a result, there may be problems. If so, please let me know and I'll spin new alpha distributions to address them. I've also made a few changes to the release artefacts: - The top-level directory of each archive is now of the form qpid-$MODULE-$RELEASE, matching the archive name. This was already true in many cases before. I made it apply everywhere. - The top-level dir in the python archive is now the qpid/python/ dir. It used to be a synthetic root containing qpid/python/ and qpid/specs/, but the content of specs had been incorporated into the python tree in previous releases and is no longer needed. - The perl and python binding archives are removed. They were synthetic derivations from the cpp source. Packagers of these bindings should use the authoritative cpp artefact instead. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5550 for more information. As an aside, one change I considered making was to repurpose qpid-java-VERSION.tar.gz as a source archive and introduce qpid-java-all-VERSION.tar.gz as the binary distro of client+server (in other words, what qpid-java- is now). If that's desirable, I can change it for beta in 0.28 or introduce it in the next release. Please test the 0.28 distro and tell me how it goes.
