PENDING ISSUES
==============
-Derby documentation in PDF format:
+None.
- A request was made for PDF documentation, however, the source files for the
- current HTML documentation for Derby are not in a form useful for creating PDF
- documentation with Forrest. A proposal was made by Jeff Levitt
- <jl...@mutagen.net> to convert the documentation into XML DITA format.
-
-
RESOLVED ISSUES SINCE LAST STATUS
=================================
-[VOTE] on repository layout:
+[VOTE] Re-vote for Derby docs in DITA format
- [ Ten votes ] Option 1: Keep the code and site pages in separately-versionable
- trees ( derby/site/{trunk,tags,branches}/<pages> and
- derby/code/{t,t,b}<code> )
-
- [ One vote ] Option 2: Put all things Derby into a single tree
- ( derby/{trunk,tags,branches}/{<code>,<pages>} )
-
-
-[VOTE] Establish development model based on Apache DB guidelines
-
- Derby is being sponsored by the Apache DB project and the Derby status
- page states 'The Apache DB project will own the Derby subproject, and
- the subproject will follow the Apache DB PMC's direction'.
- (http://incubator.apache.org/projects/derby.html)
-
- A vote was proposed that the Derby development model
- follows the guidelines defined by the Apache DB project. This will set
- the initial rules for development, changes to the model could
- subsequently be called for and voted on using the Derby developer
- mailing list.
-
- The guidelines are defined at http://db.apache.org/guidelines.html
-
- There is one difference that the Derby code is in SVN and not CVS.
-
- Note the decision making page at http://db.apache.org/decisions.html
- and the Changes section on this page http://db.apache.org/source.html.
-
- The Changes section indicates the commit model is:
-
- (quote)
-
- Simple patches to fix bugs can be committed then reviewed. With a
- commit-then-review process, the Committer is trusted to have a high
- degree of confidence in the change.
-
- Doubtful changes, new features, and large scale overhauls need to be
- discussed before committing them into the repository. Any change that
- affects the semantics of an existing API function, the size of the
- program, configuration data formats, or other major areas must receive
- consensus approval before being committed.
-
- (end-quote)
-
- Result: Six +1 votes.
-
-
-[VOTE] Derby upgrade policy
-
- A vote was proposed to accept that for any release of Derby the upgrade policy described in:
-
- http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=derby-dev@db.apache.org&msgNo=77
-
- is followed.
-
- The summary is that any release of Derby can run against a database
- created by a previous release with either no upgrade, soft upgrade or
- hard upgrade mode, depending on the circumstance.
-
- This would mean that if some new feature was added to Derby, before a
- release occurred the correct upgrade code would have to be written, if
- the feature contributor did not provide it.
-
- Result: Three +1 votes.
-
-
-[VOTE] Derby versioning:
-
- A vote was proposed related to the Derby upgrade policy vote.
-
- That the version scheme currently in place, and described in:
-
- http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=derby-
- dev@db.apache.org&msgNo=73
-
- be accepted in order to facilitate the upgrade policy voted on and
- accepted in the Derby upgrade policy thread. As such, Derby versions
- should take the following form: MAJOR.Minor.interim.point {beta} (build
- identifier). As an example, the currently posted snapshot version of
- Derby is 10.0.2.0 (46005).
-
- Whereby:
-
- Differences in the major version are used to identify large changes in
- architecture and functionality, and for which upgrade is required.
- Differences in the minor version are used to identify changes in
- functionality large enough to require an upgrade procedure for
- databases from the previous version, and for which upgrade is required.
- Differences in the interim version are used to identify significant
- differences in behavior of the database engine from the previous
- interim version, but for which upgrade to databases is not required.
- Differences in the point version are used to identify that any amount
- of change to the database engine has occurred from the previously
- released point version.
- That the build identifier be used to distinguish the exact state of the
- code from which any specific set of binaries have been compiled,
- That the beta flag in the version denote that the upgrade policy is in
- an indeterminate state with respect to the previous version and, as
- such, that an upgrade to a beta version of Derby is allowed, but an
- upgrade from a beta version of Derby to any other version of Derby is
- not allowed.
-
- I would like to further propose that, following that version scheme,
- that releases from any branch have a specific version number and be
- tagged in the repository. Thus, following this version scheme, the
- forthcoming baseline release of Derby should be versioned 10.0.2.1, as
- it includes changes which are not included in the first public version
- of the source. Once the release is ready, the version on the trunk will
- be changed to 10.0.2.1 and then tagged in subversion.
-
- I would like to also further propose that before changes which would
- require upgrade are allowed into the trunk, that the trunk be branched,
- so that the branch can serve as the reference for the upgrade policy.
- After branching, the minor (and/or major) version of the trunk will be
- incremented, and the beta tag applied to indicate that significant
- changes exist in the trunk which would require database upgrade and
- that the code for performing the upgrade has not been rigorously
- tested. As an example, before a change could be applied which would
- require upgrade, a new 10.0 branch would be created and the trunk would
- be reversioned 10.1.0.0 beta, in order to distinguish the trunk from
- the new branch and to allow changes that require a database upgrade
- into the trunk.
-
- Result: Three +1 votes. Passed.
-
-
-[VOTE] Re: Help detecting client disconnects for network server
-
- Kathey Marsden proposed the following vote concerning the use of TCP keepalive
- for Network Server:
-
- 1) Have keepAlive on by default. It seems important not only for locks
- but for potential network server bloat due to connections not getting
- cleaned up. Result: Three +1 votes. Passed.
-
- 2) Add a property derby.drda.keepAlive={true|false} (defaults to true as
- described above). There seems to be a need to be able to turn keepAlive
- off in some cases. Result: Two +1 votes, no objections. Passed.
-
- 3) Add property derby.drda.connSoTimeout=<milliseconds> (defaults to 0,
- infinite) to provide the ability to have connections timeout after a
- period of inactivity. The connections will still timeout, even if the
- connection is working fine but will timeout after blocking on a read for
- this length of time. I am about +.5 on this one. It would be nice to
- provide the capability, but hesitate to add yet another property.
- Result: One +1 vote, objections noted. Not passed.
-
-
-Copyright issues with the Derby codebase
-
- There were concerns over how the IBM copyright notices attached to the
- Derby source files were to be retained, if at all. For the discussion
- of the concerns surrounding this issue, please see:
+ Jeff Levitt called for a vote to to decide whether to use DITA source files
+ for the Derby documentation, or to continue to look for other options.
+ This would allow us the project to create PDF's, single html files for each
+ document, or dynamically update indexes as opposed to the current HTML source.
- http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=derby-dev@db.apache.org&msgId=1885981
+ Passed with seven +1 votes.
- and the thread concerning the resolution of this issue:
