commits

[Lewis John Mcgibbney <le...@gmail.com>]

Hi Folks,
I'm curious as to what the commits are on list?
I've now subscribed to commits-digest@ in an attempt to cut down the
traffic and I'm getting around 10 commits emails a day!
Are we using Jira for anything?
What code base(s) are folk actually working on?
I think we need to come to some kind of consensus amongst ourselves as to
what Apache Usergrid aims to become now, also in what direction the project
is going.
I understand that some seem to be working on a 2.0 branch right now,
however AFAICT little exists in Jira to back this up apart from an epic
issue to which I have seen no sub issues attached.
No issues are being logged in Jira and quite frankly I'm beginning to lose
control on where we are going with Usergrid right now...

We have some clear objectives to get out of the Incubator.

1. Learning the Apache Way
2. Growing a diverse community
3. Getting project infrastructure and codebase setup at Apache

IMHO it will become more difficult to get committers on board if commits
are flying around all over the place. We also don't seem to have a roadmap
for our first incubator release.

Anyone have comments on this? From my POV it would be excellent to see us
tie in with 1 and 2 above sooner rather than later.

Thanks for reading.
Lewis

Very good points Lewis, you are totally right about this.

Two things. First, we're still waiting for Infra to import our existing
JIRA issues -- we need to find a way expedite that or bite the bullet and
import them ourselves "manually" somehow.

Second, the work in the two-dot-o branch has all been focused around a new
module called "Core Persistence" which is a rewrite of the internals of the
Usergrid Entity Manager. This is covered by some of those waiting JIRA
issues, but this is a big enough change that really need a proposal that
introduces and explains Core Persistence so we can get community feedback
and enable folks to help out with development. I'm working on writing such
a proposal/summary and hope to share it in the next week or so.

I think we have a pile of issues in an export from Apigee's internal jira
lingering in an INFRA ticket somewhere. Rod?

That said, I agree that we need some more discussion on some of this - at
least have it in Jira - before a big set of changes comes in.
