Unfortunately the interim Jackrabbit 1.3.2 release will not yet
contain the OCM layer, as the patch releases only contain bug fixes to
existing features.

I'd rather say that the release is not yet ready, as we still need for
example to manage the promotion of the OCM and SPI layers to release
components and implement things like a database data store and
probably some migration tools for upgrading to the data store feature.

Agreed. There's some overhead (separate Jira projects, etc.) to
handling independent release cycles, but sooner or later we do need to
start doing more independent component releases.

So far I've been thinking about Jackrabbit 2.0 as the "natural" break
point for the project structure. We'd have synchronous 1.4 (and
perhaps 1.5) releases of all the current release components, but
starting with 2.0 we'd do separate component releases.

Hi all,

Given the growth of the number of more or less independent "top-level
sub-projects" in Jackrabbit, we should probably start again thinking of
having independent releases ?

For example, I could imagine, that OCM has definitely a different
release cycle than core which in turn might have a different cycle than
webdav.

Felix

Yes, we are deeply interested in an interim release since we were 
dependent on Graffito's OCM layer earlier. Now since it is part of 
Jackrabbit , we will be depending on a Jackrabbit release   to be 
bundled in our product.

Is 1.4 release on hold because of the bugs  mentioned in the mail chain 
( with the same subject).

I don't yet have any exact dates, but I'd expect at least a month or
two before the release is ready. At least we still need to finalize
the data store implementation and handle the upgrades of the OCM and
SPI components. I'll come up with a more detailed release plan with
relevant Jira references in near future.

Is there interest in getting some essential bug fixes out already
before the 1.4 release? I could easily imagine doing a 1.3.2 patch
release if there's interest.
