New Feature Wednesday
All,
I've revived our script that creates unstable builds. Further, I've
hooked it up to run every Wednesday at 6am PST. I chose Wednesday as
it gives developers a couple days into the week to try and get
features in that they'd like people to try out. It also gives a
couple days in the week for users to give feedback.
The goal is to have a nice steady drum beat of content reaching the
community to add more iterations to what is inherently an iterative
process. More iterations means more interactions which means a
healthier community economy. I could spend forever counting out the
benefits to the community and overall quality of the software
produced/consumed.
Here is the info for the very latest build:
Geronimo 1.1-405734 - May 10, 2006
http://cvs.apache.org/dist/geronimo/unstable/1.1-405734/
geronimo-1.1-405734-src.tar.gz

Changelog:

The changelog is automatically generated along with the unstable
build, so keep an eye on that page for future updates!
All the best,

Re: New Feature Wednesday
Posted by Dave Colasurdo <da...@earthlink.net>.
I think Joe has raised a valid point here... Providing ongoing unstable
builds is quite useful. However, if there is no simple link to them
from the Geronimo website then how will users find them?
Why not add a simple link to the unstable builds (or at least the
location of the most recent 1.1 build) on the Geronimo main download page?
This will encourage user participation and feedback for 1.1..

The problem is being caused by Codehaus being down. I've applied the
OpenEJB patch from Jira 1434 to the version of OpenEJB on Continuum.
This means the build <should> work. We should know shortly...

Definitely a good start. It takes group participation to really take
advantage.

We can link the Latest Unstable wiki page from the website. We can
also mention them when we fix problems, "I submitted/comitted a patch
for this and it will be available in next Wednesday's build! (post
link)" Or when people have problems building, "Give the latest
unstable a try and see how it goes. (post link)"

The script arbitrarily keeps 14 past builds -- can be whatever number

Sure. Most people don't notice that page is sortable. We can link
it that way for convenience.

Re: New Feature Wednesday
Posted by Joe Bohn <jo...@earthlink.net>.
I agree with everyone else that it is really great to have these
unstable builds being produced and posted on a regular basis! It will
help encourage users to pick up the latest more quickly and provide us
with quicker feedback.
How is it expected that users will find these unstable builds? Is there
some way to get to the unstable builds from the geronimo web site? I
think more people would find it and use it if there was a link from the
downloads page to http://cvs.apache.org/dist/geronimo/unstable/ .
One more question: How long will these builds "hang around"? I see
that there are still builds from 1.0 out there. Just a nit - but it
would be nice if we could put the most recent build at the top of the list.

David,
This is excellent. I think the users will appreciate being able to see new items more quickly. Not
sure if this makes sense but you might do the build at 0300 PT. That way Aaron won't be up early
hammering the build :)

Re: New Feature Wednesday
Posted by Joe Bohn <jo...@earthlink.net>.
I agree with everyone else that it is really great to have these
unstable builds being produced and posted on a regular basis! It will
help encourage users to pick up the latest more quickly and provide us
with quicker feedback.
How is it expected that users will find these unstable builds? Is there
some way to get to the unstable builds from the geronimo web site? I
think more people would find it and use it if there was a link from the
downloads page to http://cvs.apache.org/dist/geronimo/unstable/ .
One more question: How long will these builds "hang around"? I see
that there are still builds from 1.0 out there. Just a nit - but it
would be nice if we could put the most recent build at the top of the list.

Hey David,
I'd like to get this process rolling for 1.1.1-SNAPSHOT and 1.2-
SNAPSHOT. Are these builds running on GBuild? Can we get multiple
people (not just you) to help maintain this?

Oh David.. this is really coool !
Now explain the significance of 405734. :-)
Hope it's not some random number. It'd be nice if that was the tied to
the revision number or the timestamp or such significant thing.
