Releasing 1.8.1

Let's schedule the release of 1.8.1.

All code into 1.8.x by Monday, Oct. 6 EOD
Begin release on Tuesday, Oct. 7

Can someone volunteer to do the actual release steps?

I'll be catching up with work stuff all next week after being on the road for a few weeks but I can do it if necessary.

Thanks,
Everett

I'd like to help finish removing deprecated async stuff. I should be able
to get all of non-labs providers done, except rackspace legacy with I think
Jeremy is on.

Thanks for the heads-up! I don't think we need to wait that long, but  
I will check if the new bundle is available before the code freeze.

To allow any last PRs to be finished off, I suggest we freeze at 06:00  
PDT/09:00 EDT/15:00 CET tomorrow morning.

Does that work for everyone?

ServiceMix is starting a bundle release later today or tomorrow.  So the ETA for SMX4-1859 will be later this week or early next.

I've committed the change to master and 1.8.x [1, 2] and updated the

Fine with me. Note that this is likely to leave karaf support for  
agentproxy broken (I don't know if anyone ever used it, or even if it  
works now!) since the necessary inclusions have not been made there.

But I think that's a potential Known Issue we can live with, indeed.

If this works for others, I'll merge [1] and revert it again once we  
can merge [2] (which depends on SMX4-1859 [3]).

Regarding the ssh agent thing, there are two options:

* Exclude the conflicting transitive dependency.
* Upgrading the version to a newer one with a compatible license.

For the latter we need to wait for a karat fix, and the former has
already been tested and it works as expected. I propose to merge the
exclusion PR, and bump the version in a future release once the
pending karat think is unlocked. The approach has already been tested
and worked, and even it is not the ideal solution, IMHO it's not a big
deal.

That would be great, indeed. What I've been able to gather is the same  
as you: as jclouds, we shouldn't have any problem releasing this.

The point Alex was originally trying to make when he raised this,  
though (as far as I understood) was a different one: if we suddenly  
include an LGPL lib, it becomes impossible for anyone to bundle  
jclouds in a product that is not LGPL-compliant.

Of course, they could jump through some hoops to try to exclude it  
(like Brooklyn did), but my guess is that, if they know, they would  
simply skip 1.8.1 and future releases until this is fixed. Data on  
this point would be welcome, but the absence of more evidence I think  
we should be conservative and take the one datapoint that we have  
(from Alex) that this is a Real Problem.

Re: Releasing 1.8.1

I can also take the release, so if you're too busy Andrew just ping me
and I'll step in.

Regarding the LGPL thing, I have some doubts. Reading the ASF legal
FAQ [1] it seems that we can't include LGPL licenses, but the point
here is that we are *not* distributing the LGPL licensed software. A
jclouds release consists *only* of the jclouds source code, and that
does not include any source files licensed under LGPL.

Using LGPL dependencies is not clear to me, though. I've searched the
archives and found this thread [2], where it seems to say that having
build/test dependencies might be OK from the ASF perspective, but it
is not clear to me. In the end, all what we distribute is Apache
licensed, but in order to be able to build/run this ASF licensed
software, one may need to download an external LGPL licensed library.

It would be great if someone with better knowledge could give some
light on this, and if LGPL dependencies can be used.

I can pick this up - week doesn't look too full so far for me, and I'm  
not on the road.

But I would rather not release with the LGPL dependency issue [1]

Okay. Code cutoff EOD then. 

Is there a volunteer for doing the release tomorrow?

If not, I’ll do it using AP’s Google Doc [1]. If I do wind up doing the release, you’ll be able to find me on #jclouds in an emotionally distressed state.

So it’s a pretty normal and natural thing that, when a release is called for, people put up their hands and say “hold off for just a bit, I’ve got one more thing I want to add!”

If projects did hold off then nothing would ever get released because there’s always some good reason to put a hold on things.

Users expect a release from us every 6 weeks because that’s the minor release cadence we’ve committed to. 1.8.1 is already 3 weeks late according to our minor release cadence. I propose we stick with the schedule below and anything not in by Monday EOD can simply wait until the next release. It’s only 6 weeks away.

I really want to have the CloudSigma v2 api in for 1.8.1 [1]. Its version 1
has been retired (and removed from jclouds), so we should ideally provide
support for v2 despite being in labs.

I volunteer to fix the remaining bits in the PR (I've helped in its
development) before Monday and to cut the release.

If no one says the opposite I'll take this one :)

I do not think we should perform clean-up tasks in minor releases,
especially breaking ones, even in labs.  Of course on master this is a
desired and valuable change which recognizes the GCE as a high-quality
and blessed provider.  I also do not think we should delay releases for
anything other than regressions -- we will have another minor release
soon enough.

Regarding openstack-swift in labs, it has many integration test failures

For comparison, all other blobstore providers run integration tests

Re: Releasing 1.8.1

I would suggest that since we are adding providers it makes more sense to
cut 1.9.x off the 1.8.x branch and release 1.9.0.

Also, is there anything holding back openstack-swift in labs? It would be
fantastic to allow users to get off the legacy swift codebase onto
something not labs.

I suppose this is a good opportunity to discuss gce and oauth (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-172).

There was some debate over whether we should graduate labs projects in a patch release such as 1.8.1 (comments on JCLOUDS-172), but it seems like most everyone is ok with it and I want to make sure that this topic gets resolved.

On the other hand, there have been some issues with GCE API in the last few weeks which have cast some doubt on graduating from labs right now.  I think they are rather minor issues, but the versioned GCE API changing from the docs and previous return data makes this worthy of a discussion. 

For my 2 cents, I would say that fixing these issues, merging some stale PRs, and releasing this in jclouds 1.8.1 on Monday is pushing my sensibility.  If we were to hold off on the release another week or so, my comfort level would be much better.  I’m not arguing to push back the release at all, just putting out the options.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Chris

Let's schedule the release of 1.8.1.  

All code into 1.8.x by Monday, Oct. 6 EOD  
Begin release on Tuesday, Oct. 7  

Can someone volunteer to do the actual release steps?  

I'll be catching up with work stuff all next week after being on the road for a few weeks but I can do it if necessary.  

Thanks,

Also, I guess we should pick one of the candidate fixes for the LGPL  
issue with JNA before releasing:

* https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/533 (preferred, but not sure  
if Karaf will work properly with agentproxies then)
* https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/525

Let's add it to the wiki, so the documentation is tracked, and can be used as a starting point for adding more.

I think "this is what ap did" would be a significant improvement over what’s there right now. ;)

If you think it makes sense to have a document that's phrased more in  
terms of a "this is what I did" vs. "this is what you need to do",  
then sure! Hopefully we'll also finally be able to get rid of some of  
the self-deps that currently add unnecessary steps to this process.

Hey Andrew,

Would you be interested in updating or completely replacing the current Releasing jclouds [1] with your reference [2]?

1.8.0 release steps, for reference [1]. See also the recurring  
discussion about automating (more of) the release process [2].

If we could get some of the improvement items done *before* 1.8.1, it  
should hopefully reduce the effort required for the release quite a bit.
