Commons Configuration Release Plan

+++++++++Update the Subject+++++++++++
Hi,

Am Shivaraj from Ericsson India Global Private Limited, we have our own software to meet the business need and we used below FOSS to achieve certain functionalities. Since we planned to upgrade the below component and found that the product is last released in Mar'2020 - Apache Configuration 2.7, is there any update/release planned in near future if so please revert on the planned release date.


Vendor
Software Name
Version
Apache
Commons Configuration
1.9

Regards,
Shivaraj Sivasankaran.

Hi Shivaraj,
I've worked at companies with similar policies. For anything that is Apache
I usually respond to who is asking with something like "Apache Commons is
an active community, only release as changes are need due to being stable
and mature libraries. Release only happen if new functionality is added or
to fix bugs fixes. Excessive releases at a fixed schedule or after ever
bugfix would cause constant headache for Apache Commons maintained and us
wasting development effort testing and releases each time an update is
done.".

Hello,

I could go ahead and try to release this. It will have to be after
this weekend, however, since I will be busy with family. (It's
Mother's Day in the US.)

Different components have different levels of maturity and interest for
people here who are volunteering. Update frequency is not correlated to
quality.

RE: Commons Configuration Release Plan

Posted by Amaladhithyan Krishnamoorthy <am...@ericsson.com.INVALID>.
Hi Gary,

     We are not looking for any change or feature specifically.

According to an internal guideline we follow in our organization any FOSS that hasn’t received an update or new release in 2 years (approx.) has to evaluated for replacement.
      Since commons-configuration last release was only in 2020, we wanted to know if there will any release in the future so that we can make a call to either go for a replacement or hold-on until an update is received. To make this decision we would want to know if and when there will be an update to commons-configuration.

       Also, we observed from the release history that common-configuration has had at least 2 updates an year until 2020. Any reason why we have not seen an update for more than 2 years?

  Thanks,
Amal

Hi,

Are you looking for a specific change?

It's on my to do list but I do not have a date. Within a couple of months maybe, after we release other components that have higher priority for me ATM.
