Maven 1.1 gold?
Are there any plans to turn Maven 1.1b2 into 1.1 final?
I'm personally quite happy to trust using a b2 version but being in a
commercial organisation eyebrows are always raised when you say you're
using a beta build of an open source project!
thanks
James

Consistently releasing releases.

This is a great way of doing things, IMHO.
It forces regular, reproducible builds.
It allows widespread testing of those builds.
It gathers a consensus outside the dev team on what is a recommended stable
build.
It provides for options other than the install of a major release and
handpicking changes.

Personnaly I prefered if we follow a versionning convention like in httpd,
tomcat and some other projects.
These projects release regularly a new version X.Y.Z and launch a vote to
decide if this is a stable release or not.
It's wht you have in these projects a big number for Z. It's more a build
number than a fix number.
But it's not actually the policy for maven.
And again: any help would be very welcome! :)
YES !! :-)

Following up on Arnaud's comments:
In principle I agree with the 'release early, release often' philosophy
- as long as there is something to release. Looking at the Jira roadmap
[1] most of the closed Jira's for m11b3 are documentation issues and a
few trivial fixes. Functionally, the current core is completely
equivalent to the one in m11b2.
The only big change that has ocurred IMO is that Arnaud has unified
practically all dependencies used in the core and the core plugins [2]
which has solved quite a few consistency issues. However, releasing a
new distribution now would only make sense if all the included plugins
would use the same set of dependencies. That's why we are working on
re-releasing the plugins first.
Finally, as Jeff has pointed out, I am also not happy about the naming,
I think m11b2 and the current m11b3-SNAPSHOT are far superior and more
stable than the suffix 'beta' would suggest.
And again: any help would be very welcome! :)

Hi all,
We (the few m1.1 developpers) are completly agree with you.
Release early, release often is what we are trying to do for plugins
because you can use them today in maven 1.0.2 or in maven 1.1 beta X.
In the history page [1] and in our you can see that we are releasing a lot
of plugins since maven 1.1 beta 2 ( I don't talk about maven 1.0.2 ).
For the main distribution the problem is more complex.
We have actually a lot of blocking bugs (multiproject problems, xml
entities not supported, ...) that we have to fix before to release maven
1.1-beta-3 :
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&type=1&pid=10030&status=1&status=3&status=4
But these bugs are also depending of external libraries (jelly, dom4j,
jaxen, ....) and some of these projects are a little bit dead. It's why
maven 2 uses less external dependencies to not reproduce this error.
And the last point : The community for m1 is less and less active. People
are migrating to maven 2 and nobody wants to lost his time to debug and
patch maven 1.1 :-(

Release early, release often. Better to have point releases to fix bugs than

RE: Maven 1.1 gold?
Posted by Jeff Jensen <je...@upstairstechnology.com>.
It seems a worse situation to keep dragging 1.1 betas out for this duration
(1 year?). 1.1b2/3 is far better than any prior release. Cut bait and
fish. Make the remaining items 1.2 if needed. The small incremental
changes are better released more frequently for all concerned.
If core work has stalled so, then ship it as is.

There are definetely plans but we are only very few people actively working
on m1 anymore. Since the release of m11b2 we have mainly concentrated on
plugins development, we planned to include a new version of every single
plugin into 11b3 [1]. Plugins provide the main functionality for the end
user and I am confident to say that the quality of plugins that have been
released since b2 [2] has improved considerably.
Unfortunately, development on the core has practically stalled by now,
mainly due to the lack of man-power. There is a long list of open issues [3]
that are waiting to be addressed, any help here would be very welcome...
Cheers,

Re: Maven 1.1 gold?
Posted by Lukas Theussl <lt...@apache.org>.
There are definetely plans but we are only very few people actively
working on m1 anymore. Since the release of m11b2 we have mainly
concentrated on plugins development, we planned to include a new version
of every single plugin into 11b3 [1]. Plugins provide the main
functionality for the end user and I am confident to say that the
quality of plugins that have been released since b2 [2] has improved
considerably.
Unfortunately, development on the core has practically stalled by now,
mainly due to the lack of man-power. There is a long list of open issues
[3] that are waiting to be addressed, any help here would be very welcome...
