Roller 5.0 and roadmap
With the upcoming Media Blogging and Distributed Search changes
combined with the work that is already in the Roller trunk we have the
makings of major new Roller release this Spring. I don't think we
should call this release 4.1 because it contains significant database
schema changes and new features.
I'd like to propose that the next release we make from trunk be called
"5.0" and I've put together the following proposal:
Apache Roller 5.0 - http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/9aQB
- Media blogging
- Distributed search
- Better pluggability
- Upgrade dependencies, especially OpenJPA 1.x
- Extensible user management - DONE
- Tag Data API - DONE
- OpenSearch suppport - DONE
- OpenID for users - DONE
Any objections to changing references to 4.1 to 5.0?
- If not, I'll make the corresponding changes in JIRA
Anybody else have features they would like to develop for to 5.0?
What about the 4.0.x line?
I'm going to focus almost exclusively on 5.0, but its possible that we
could release another bug-fix release from the Roller 4.0 branch. It
all depends on you: if you folks! If you submit the bugs and develop
the fixes, I'll help you get them into the 4.0 branch and get a
release out.

We have discussed the idea of allow each blog to specify the template
to be used to generate it's RSS/Atom feed. It is a good idea, but we
never designed or implemented a solution.

It should be very much the same. What is the difference?
Setting a stylesheet for a feed is not really necessary now that
browsers handle feeds so nicely.

I imagine someone else already proposed this
to edit RSS and Atom in a way similar to how it can currently be done
with the stylesheet. I mean into a independent tab or something, so it
can contain templates ...or something
just testing, I did a rss xml file with velocity in templates
(http://www.transitorio.cl/weblog/page/rssTitulos) but, as far as I
can understand, it doesn't function as the one that Roller generates
but it doesn't need to restart Roller :D

OK. I have made the changes in JIRA.
Bugs that were previously FIX-FOR releases 4.1 and 4.2 are now assigned to 5.0.

I like the idea of 5.0.
