AMQ 4.2 status

Hi all

I'm about to release an alpha version of my service.
Since I had the impression that 4.2 was going to be released 
soon I've been postponing the date in the hope to release
with
- a more stable version of AMQ (currently it's packaged with a month old
trunk rev.) 
- kaha storing indexes on the filesystem rather than in memory
- and to get rid of this  backport-util-concurrent.jar

Now I read that the jar has been tossed out, but how
about the quality of the codebase?  

Thanks a lot for the feedback, and congratulations
for the progresses, I'm seeing AMQ getting better at each
checkout:)

Cheers
Francesco

Rob

thanks for the quick reply

will you announce when you branch 4.1 and 5?
Do you have any estimate of when this is likely to happen?

Cheers
Francesco

Given that a few things have changed in 4.2.x we'll be renaming that
5.0 as the OpenWire protocol will be enhanced, the code will move to
Java 5 and other things are changing (such as dispatching, spool to
disk stuff and so forth).

So if you can wait a month or so, I'd go with 5.0, otherwise go for a
4.1.x release which should all be binary compatible with each other.

Hi Rob

the service is announced here:

http://www.ripe.net/info/stats/hostcount/hostcount++/

background here:

http://www.ripe.net/hostcount/

What I'm interested mainly in a new release is the stability
of Kaha (I've just posted on this). 
Java 5 would be nice to have, but it's quite more important
for example that interfaces don't change between 4.1 and 4.2,
there's no point in releasing a long running service which will
already have binary incompatibilities next month...

thanks for the reply anyway, I would just like to know which
moves to take.

Cheers
Francesco

Hi Francesco,

just out interest what's the service you're releasing?

We are currently debating about providing another maintenance version  
of the 4.1 branch, whilst continue to add enhancements in to trunk,  
with the aim to be the next major release to version 5.0

cheers,

Rob Davies
