[VOTE] Release Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5

Hi,

I have posted a candidate for the Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5 release at

    http://people.apache.org/~jukka/jackrabbit/1.5.5/

See the RELEASE-NOTES.txt file (also included at the end of this
message) for details on release contents and latest changes. The
release candidate is a jar archive of the sources in
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/tags/1.5.5. The SHA1
checksum of the jackrabbit-1.5.5-src.jar release package is
5d3df8d72e99f6f679cc4f18a0fc5ef1c62ff02c.

Please vote on releasing this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5. The
vote is open for the next 72 hours and passes if a majority of at
least three +1 Jackrabbit PMC votes are cast.

    [ ] +1 Release this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5
    [ ] -1 Do not release this package because...

With the source release I have also included pre-compiled binaries for
the main deployment packages (webapp, jca, standalone) as well as a
staged Maven repository containing pre-compiled versions of all the
components that have been changed since 1.5.4.

If this vote passes, I will make the source release and the deployment
packages available on the Jackrabbit download page and publish the
other binaries in the central Maven repository.

Here's my +1.

BR,

Jukka Zitting


Release Notes -- Apache Jackrabbit -- Version 1.5.5

Introduction
------------

Apache Jackrabbit is a fully conforming implementation of the Content
Repository for Java Technology API (JCR). A content repository is a
hierarchical content store with support for structured and unstructured
content, full text search, versioning, transactions, observation, and
more. See the Jackrabbit web site at http://jackrabbit.apache.org/ for
more information.

Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5 is a bug fix release that fixes issues reported
against previous releases. The jackrabbit-jcr2spi component contains also
some other improvements over previous releases. This release is fully
compatible with the earlier 1.5.x releases.

See below for a full listing of fixes included in this release.

Release Contents
----------------

This release consists of a single source archive (jackrabbit-1.5.5-src.jar)
that contains all the Apache Jackrabbit components. Use the following
commands (or the equivalent in your system) to build the release with
Maven 2 and Java 1.4 or higher:

    jar xf jackrabbit-1.5.5-src.jar
    cd jackrabbit-1.5.5
    mvn install

Note that the OCM components require Java 5 or higher, and are not included
in the build when using Java 1.4.

The source archive is accompanied by SHA1 and MD5 checksums and a PGP
signature that you can use to verify the authenticity of your download.
The public key used for the PGP signature can be found at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/dist/KEYS.

The build will result in the following components (with artifactIds in

Configuring the compiler plugin to use the forked mode[1] with
something like this in the pom could help:

      <plugin>
        <inherited>true</inherited>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <fork>true</fork>
          <meminitial>128m</meminitial>
          <maxmem>256m</maxmem>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>

Bart

In the XMLChar files we've so far kept the original license header
from Xerces. Since Xerces is an Apache project we can (and should)
replace the header with the standard one.

The InvalidQueryException header should also be changed.

I'll take care of these in trunk. IMHO no need for action in 1.5.5.

Hmm, we probably should pay some attention to the memory use of the
build. Not a blocker though, we can fix this in trunk.

+1 Release this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5

given below issues are not critical:

- signature and checksums ok
- licence, notice, header, readme and release-notes files ok with the 
(minor?) issue that

./jackrabbit-jcr-commons/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/util/XMLChar.java
./jackrabbit-jcr-tests/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/test/XMLChar.java
./jackrabbit-ocm/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/ocm/exception/InvalidQueryException.java

use a different license header than the other .java files.

- maven build succeeded for 1.4 and 1.5
- maven build failed for 1.6 in Jackrabbit Standalone 
(java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space)

[X] +1 Release this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.5

- signature OK
- checksums OK
- licence, notice, header, readme and release-notes files OK
- maven build failed the first time with an out of memory error. a
second 'mvn install' succeeded. We might want to include a note on the
download page that explains how to give maven more heap
(MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx128m).
