Planning the releases

Hi Team,

I think it's time to recall the "release early release often" paradigma...

As others already mentioned over the last weeks, we should try to
release a 2.0.3 as soon as possible. For this we should collect the
open issues, do them and release (sounds simple, doesn't it?)

As I'm next week on vacation near Paris :) what do you think of
the 1st of July as a release date for 2.0.3?

And if we are already talking about releases, what do we have
to do for 2.1? It seems that many things are nearly finished, so
we can start to think of a beta phase. I would 
propose the 15th of July for the release date of 2.1 beta 1.

What do you think?
What are the open issues (for both releases)?

Actually I proposed the date above to push things ;) I currently fear that
we are making the same mistake we made with 2.0 where every month we said,
"Hey, let's move the release just one month because we need this cool thing
in the release".

Hmm, I agree. But again, I think we are making the same mistake as we did
with the 2.0 release.

What about moving everything which has not been discussed in detail to
the 2.2 release?

Of course, we can't make a beta if we don't have a stable API/contracts.

We are not even close to what I think 2.1 should be about. I would be in
favor of an 'alpha' release, meaning that we don't make any effort
whatsoever for API back compatibility between 2.1 releases until we go
final (as the WARNING states clearly today), but a beta means that we
are happy with the interfaces we have and I'm not.

This is a big one. I would like more info to evaluate this.

makes sense.

But would slow us down in development and since we need to develop
rather than to do bugfixes, I don't like this.

My issues are:

1) the flowmap/sitemap connection semantics are bad. I don't like them.
We need to do something more aggressive on this realm. NOTE: we'll have
to change the version of the sitemap namespace in 2.1, but still be back
compatible with 2.0.x

2) finish the design of blocks

Thursday I spent a day with Giacomo talking about the above two points
(I did consulting in Zurich this week). I'll write extensive RT tomorrow
or the next day about what we achieved.

I'm happy to state that we were finally able to provide a solution for
all the problems with had on the table, expecially about sitemap/flowmap
integration and about block polymorphism.

I don't want to enter beta state until we have finished discussing such
important design issues.

Hope you understand my points.

Ehhmmm, ok, I didn't check if the JDBC pool works... but I just tested it
and yes, it's not working with jdk1.4 but with jdk1.3.... :(

What is needed for it? 

The current excalibur is compiled with jdk 1.4
in 1.2 compatible mode. For me this works on JDK 1.4 and 1.3 without
problems.

1.4.

This is the most discussed issue on the user list, it must be fixed
before release. Can we have now Excalibur which works with 1.3 *and*
1.4?

+0. I have not had a chance to review new interfaces/syntax additions.
After Cocoon goes beta, it won't be possible to make any changes. Hope
will have time for this till July 15th.

No, there are a few places, but with my last updates to the excalibur
source interface (adding getLastModified() ) we can switch everywhere
without problems now.

Some more issues/todo for 2.1 :
- switch to Avalon Source everywhere (is it already done ?)
- switch to LogEnabled
- I have to write the extended sitemap variable substitution, i.e. 
{request:foo}. I'm late on this since my Cocoon time is currently 
devoted to reviewing a book written by people named... Carsten and 
Matthew ;-)
- more tests and examples on the flowmap. Seems to me that this 
strategic stuff has been a set a bit aside due to lack of time.

Entering beta state would then allow more people to test this baby !

It seems that the path is not needed anyway, and I have a local fix, but 
   I'm having problems in making Cocoon work at all in Tomcat 4.1 now.
I'll commit ASAP, thanks :-)

Yes, pleeeaaase. IMHO Cocoon 2.0.3 is a long time overdue ...

Which can be easily overcome by doing something like:

java.net.URL url = ...;
String path = url.getFile().substring(0,url.getFile().lastIndexOf('?'));

Major thing: make the distro working and tested on Jdk 1.3 *and* 1.4.
I haven't looked in the linkstatus 1.2 problem yet, lack of time :-/
What was the code snippet that was giving problems with 1.2?

I think that 2.1 features are all the ones we have now in CVS, bsically.
We need to :
- apply patches
- test flowmap + docs + etc
- documentation to forrest format
- finish example refactoring
- finish to move scratchpad stuff in main trunk

Currently they are out as (AFAIK) noone has started working on it.
But if someone is able to make a concept *and* implement it by
the 15th of July (or the release date of the beta 1) they can
be in.

Personally, I think we shouldn't add blocks to 2.1 to stick to our
"release early, release often" theme...

Are Cocoon blocks in or out from 2.1 ?
