Jira issues fixed since previous release. new release?
Hi all,
I've been thinking that, whether we should make a new release of
Xerces2-J or not in near future.
I think that, to decide about this, we should know how many Jira issues
we've fixed since our previous release (2.12.0). I've produced following
Jira report (as of today), depicting this:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ConfigureReport.jspa?projectOrFilterId=project-10520&periodName=quarterly&daysprevious=589&cumulative=false&versionLabels=all&selectedProjectId=10520&reportKey=com.atlassian.jira.jira-core-reports-plugin%3Acreatedvsresolved-report&atl_token=A5KQ-2QAV-T4JA-FDED_fee8ee71d4783bd1c62bd857be93bd1af71bb7f1_lout&Next=Next
The above report, shows for each quarter since our previous release, how
we've responded to reported jira issues (created vs resolved). Please also
look at, the 'Data Table' mentioned at bottom of above referred report
(that points to individual Jira issues).
I've a feeling that, we could make a new Xerces2-J release (my suggested
new version number is, 2.15.0. any thoughts?) with the improvements as are
reflected within above mentioned Jira report. The issues fixed are not too
many since our 2.12.0 release, but the new Xerces2-J release could still be
valuable to community.
Any thoughts from devs, shall be helpful to Xerces project.

Hi all,
As discussed, we'll be making the Xerces2-J 2.12.1 release. As agreed,
I'm volunteering to make this release. For your kind information, in
relation to Xerces2-J 2.12.1 release, I'm thinking not to make new release
of xml-apis.jar (i.e xml commons) since I think that, there have been no
(or almost insignificant that doesn't add functional value to Xerces2-J)
contributions to xml commons since our Xerces2-J 2.12.0 release.
I hope that, above mentioned intents are fine. If anyone disagrees, please
let us know.

Hi Michael,
Many thanks for your concurrence on making the new (2.12.1) Xerces
release. Thanks for your kind remarks as well.
I'll shortly begin the process, for making new Xerces release. Relating to
the release, I hope to have something ready very soon, for Xerces community
to review.

Hi Mukul,
You are (or anyone who would volunteer is) always free to do that. Without
your initiative it's quite possible that the previous release (2.12.0)
might still be stalled today.
Thanks again for moving things forward.

Hi Michael (& Gary),
Thanks for your thoughts.
I too find that, 2.12.1 looks to be the right version number for
Xerces2-J's new release.
I'll be happy to devote my time over next few days (or may be few small
weeks), to make new Xerces release. Can you please give your go ahead for
starting the process of making a new Xerces release?

Assuming it's just minor bug fixes, 2.12.1 sounds about right.
Thanks.

I'm all for it. Since our current release is 2.12.0, it seems to me the
next release should be 2.12.1 or 2.13.0, not 2.15.0. Skipping versions will
just confuse users IMO.
