[dna-dev] JBoss DNA 0.4 planning

[Randall Hauch]

Now that 0.3 is almost out the door, I'd like to start discussing the  
goals for the next release.

I'd love to see the JCR implementation take more shape.  Right now  
it's read-only, so getting that much farther along would be  
outstanding.  Anybody interested?  I think we could easily put several  
people to work here.  The graph API is pretty good, and should make  
implementing JCR relatively straightforward.  Any interest, Michael  
Trezzi and Alexandre and Serge?
We need to add events to the connector framework.  That should be  
pretty straightforward.  Also versioning, which will require a bit  
more work.  Plus, there are a couple of connectors that we may want to  
start working on.  This is something I'd be happy to continue with.   
Serge P. also has expressed interest in working on some connectors (in  
fact his SVN connector is coming along great!).
The CND sequencer could use some love and attention.  Dan was stuck in  
some ANLTR hell, and got pulled off onto a different project.  Since  
it uses ANTLR, maybe you might be interested in it, Alexandre?
We also have a need to start working on a REST/WebDAV layer that  
allows other client apps to access a DNA repository.  There's a couple  
of things we can do, including looking at Apache Sling, or using  
RESTeasy for a more simple implementation, or something else.  Sergiy  
and John both expressed interest in this.

Anything else?

We can either tackle several things at once and move them all  
incrementally, or we can do more in just a few areas.  Ideally, we're  
looking at a 4-5 week cycle (finishing before the year-end holidays.)   
A lot will depend on how much effort people might be able to dedicate  
to the project.

Please respond with your thoughts and comments!

Best regards,

Randall
