roadmap 2014

[David S Taylor <da...@bluesunrise.com>]

Jetspeed Community,

[NOTE: Im just posting this to the user list, not the dev list so everyone
can participate, developers and community alike]

With the new year, its a good time to regroup, start working on tasks again
and realign the Jetspeed Roadmap. The first thing I'd like to address, is
moving the trunk build to Java 7. Since this kind of change is not a minor
revision, I am proposing that we do all future trunk work based on Java 7
starting from a 2.3.0 version.

Java 7 is a significant enough change to warrant a 'minor' release upgrade
[for example 2.3.0 - 2 is major, 3 is minor, 0 is revision].

With Java 7 support, this will allow Jetspeed developers to comfortably
make use of new Java 7 features without being constrained to older versions.

Here is the Roadmap Proposal for this year. Please feel free to discuss and
propose!

Jetspeed 2.3.0
===============
Targeted Release Date: April 2014

1. Java 7 (JS2-1292)
2. Jetspeed API + Generics (JS2-874)
3. Tomcat 7 and Servlet 3.0 (JS2-1274)
4. Upgrade Dependencies, Spring (JS2-1290)
5. Improve Build based on Maven 3, and Profiles (JS2-1291)
....

Jetspeed 2.3.1
==============
Targeted Release Date: a few months after 2.3.0

1. Upgrade (some) Admin Portlets JS2-1282
2. Security Domains (JS2-1233)
3. Fast User Manager (JS2-1293)
4. Web Resource Optimization
5. Improved JetUI (JS2-1084)
....


JIRA
=====

2.2.3
-----
Has 12 open issues, and 9 closed issues.
Recommend stopping work on 2.2.3, attributing all closed 2.2.3 issues with
2.2.3 and 2.3.0 as fix versions, and making trunk 2.3.0-SNAPSHOT.
All 2.2.3 open issues will be moved to 2.3.0
Propose branching 2.2.3, gives us the ability to continue a maintenance
branch for Java 1.5 installations, if anyone still needs that
