Re: What next after the release?

It is still very quiet.

Is there something temporary holding up discussions on dev@ or is this 
the default state of the podling?

Nothing seems to have happened about Stian's "I believe taverna-osgi is 
ready for release now" except as far as I can see, downstream jobs don't 
work (I don't know if that matters or not).

Taverna next reports in the December cycle (which starts end of November).

Hello,

The list of source code repositories seem to give some clue as to what
we should do next. We appear to have the taverna-maven-parent and
taverna-language in pretty good shape. Next step would be to tackle
taverna-osgi to fix the plugin system since this seems to stop the
command line from executing, then taverna-engine and then
taverna-common-activities. Then we should be able to run workflows
which use the most common types of activities.

Cheers,

Ian

Now the previous months reporting cycle has ended, the Taverna incubator 
report reminder will soon come in.

You will need to write that report and so this is a prompt to prepare 
thoughts for it.

This 6 months "offline" is worrying. Is this a one-off or might it recur?

Ian's message was a great.  A step to generating engagement is to get 
more released.  But there was not much response to Ian's message.

The critical challenge as I see it is the move from the previous mode of 
operation between institutions and projects, to one based on the 
community of individuals.

I’ll repeat yet again my comment that you missed an opportunity to build
your developer community from the GSOC students. I suggest you revisit
this.

Hello,

Totally agree here. We started a discussion on the next tasks a few
weeks ago but never built up any momentum around it. So lets' reboot
it. What I think is needed is a working taverna command line so that
we can actually run workflows -
https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-commandline. For starters
the documentation talks about 'editions' which I think no longer
applies. I have raised
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-873 which is really a
general documentation issue and
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-874 which is mvn clean
package failing.

So we need to detail the dependencies and issues which are required to
get the command line 'working'.

Cheers,

Ian

Hi Shoaib,

Yes - finding time can be a problem.  Maybe helping other people to get 
involved is the way to make progress.

A useful step would be to sketch out what tasks are needed to make 
progress towards a release of taverna-osgi.

The places people can go to find out what a project is doing are the 
mailing lists, JIRA etc.  The IPMC needs to discuss in public.

Hi,

The problem is there are new project coming online that Stian and Ian are
focused on at the moment, but the good news is that come Jan/Feb one of
those projects is really depending upon Taverna so there will be an
increase in effort and opportunities to community build across institutions.

I am not saying nothing is happening because I know Stian and others are
working on things but this is just a lull not the default state by any
means.

Best

It is still very quiet.

Is there something temporary holding up discussions on dev@ or is this the
default state of the podling?

Nothing seems to have happened about Stian's "I believe taverna-osgi is
ready for release now" except as far as I can see, downstream jobs don't
work (I don't know if that matters or not).

Taverna next reports in the December cycle (which starts end of November).
