[DISCUSS] Release Aries JPA

[Jeremy Hughes <hu...@apache.org>]

There's some interest on the user@ list to cut a release of Aries JPA,
so I thought I'd kick start the discussion here. This will be the
first time we've used our new per module release process [1] which
describes releasing per bundle and lists a few distributions
(collections of bundles) that we felt at the time users would find
useful. That list of distributions doesn't include one for JPA. Since
a 'JPA release' has been requested, I think we should release all the
bundles JPA depends on (that need a release) and cut a JPA
distribution release.

To figure out the modules/bundles we need to release I ran a mvn
dependency:tree in the JPA module. I appeneded the snippets that
matter to the bottom of this email. The summary of what I believe we
need to release is:

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.api

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.container ...
dependencies in Aries:
org.apache.aries.quiesce:org.apache.aries.quiesce.api (JPA depends on
0.3 but there have been some changes to Quiesce API recently, so need
to check whether quiesce needs releasing too)
org.apache.aries:org.apache.aries.util:jar
org.apache.aries.testsupport:org.apache.aries.testsupport.unit (JPA
depends on 0.3 but testsupport had a change recently so it may need a
release too)

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.container.context ...
additional dependencies in Aries not already listed:
org.apache.aries.blueprint:org.apache.aries.blueprint (this is the
uber/monolith bundle, so we should release the small bundles too - up
for discussion is whether we release the uber/monolith bundle at all)
org.apache.aries.blueprint:blueprint-parser (this needs looking at as
the artifactId doesn't look right)
org.apache.aries.blueprint:org.apache.aries.blueprint.api (JPA depends
on 0.3 but there has been a small change so it may need a release too)
org.apache.aries.proxy:org.apache.aries.proxy.api

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.blueprint.aries ...
no additional dependencies

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.container.itest.bundle ...
no additional dependencies

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.container.advanced.itest.bundle

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.blueprint.itest.bundle

org.apache.aries.jpa:org.apache.aries.jpa.container.itest
additional dependencies in Aries not already listed:
org.apache.aries.proxy:org.apache.aries.proxy
org.apache.aries.proxy:org.apache.aries.proxy.impl
org.apache.aries.transaction:org.apache.aries.transaction.manager
(depends on 0.3 but some changes to transactions may mean we should
release that too)
org.apache.aries.transaction:org.apache.aries.transaction.testds (no
changes to this bundle, so may not need releasing)
org.apache.aries.transaction:org.apache.aries.transaction.wrappers (ditto)
org.apache.aries.jndi:org.apache.aries.jndi.api
org.apache.aries.jndi:org.apache.aries.jndi.core
org.apache.aries.jndi:org.apache.aries.jndi.url

I'm not going have a great deal of time until middle of next week to
look into this in more detail, so please if anyone else would like to
make progress, please go ahead.
