roadmap for resolver 1.1 release?

[Craeg K Strong <cs...@arielpartners.com>]

The ant-dev community is starting the planning process for an
Ant 1.6 release.  Due to the xmlcatalog integration, there is now
a dependency between Ant and resolver. 

The Ant CVS currently depends on changes in the resolver CVS. 
What are the plans for the resolver 1.1 release?  Are there any more
major chunks of functionality to be completed?

Thanks,

--Craeg

I cannot speak for Craeg, but can confirm that we've tested the CVS
version of resolver with Ant - in fact Gump does so with every nightly
build.

The point is that the API has changed from resolver 1.0 release in a
way that makes it impossible to write code that compiles against
resolver 1.0 and the CVS code.  Ant has chosen to go with the CVS
version since months and it would be a pitty to roll back for an Ant
1.6 release (which has not been scheduled yet).

I am not a developer of Resolver, but i sure am a keen user and want
to see it in wider use.

Have you been testing the CVS version of resolver with Ant?
I have tried it out with Cocoon and it seems fine - we have various
samples there that exercise it. I will add it to our CVS head soon
and get some cross-platform tests.

I don't plan any more work, I've really just been waiting for
feedback. I've been using it without problems for months, but I wanted
wider testing.

I'm also not real familiar with the process for creating a new
release.

In summary: I vote "yea" for a new release. Especially if we can get
it out in time for Ant 1.6 to use it.

                                        Be seeing you,
