Stansberry<BR><B>Subject:</B> Beta Release for AS
5<BR></FONT><BR>Guys,<BR><BR> Based on my earlier
thread to gather input for a Beta release of AS 5 we arrived at a hard date
of December 8th. That Beta would have the basics working, but not be
the final design of the MC/Deployer stuff, and the profile service would not
have the management API defined and implemented. We will follow with a
second Beta which will clean-up everything, incorporate any refactoring
necessary, and add the management API for JBoss ON to the profile
service.<BR><BR>Since then, there has been some additional discussion about
can we release something by JBoss World, which as you know, is November
20th.<BR><BR>So here's the challenge. Release an AS 5 that has
deployers on the new MC that work, has decent TCK coverage for EJB 3 and WS
working, and has the JGroups/JBoss Cache releases integrated, all from HEAD
by November 20th.<BR><BR>Let's accept this challenge, and if you guys can
pull it off, I'll find a way to reward each of you for the
effort.<BR><BR>Thanks.<BR><BR>
