[jboss-dev] Re: AS5 Beta3 status - Sep/13th

Tomorrow (After Sep/14th) is the target date for completing component updates in jboss trunk, in preparation for AS5 Beta3. After this round of updates is complete we should avoid making API changes, rather concentrate on bug fixes and implementation of missing features. I've send out mails to individual components owner about the pending updates below, but you may update the corresponding JIRA tasks starting from: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4562 For tracking updates for the next AS5 CRx please use: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4647 A summary of the current status: The snapshot list is the same like last week <componentref name="jboss/jboss-ejb3-cache" version="0.11-SNAPSHOT"/> <componentref name="jboss/jboss-jaspi-api" version="1.0-SNAPSHOT"/> <componentref name="jboss/jboss-security-spi" version="2.0.1-SNAPSHOT"/> <componentref name="jboss/jbosssx" version="2.0.1-SNAPSHOT"/> <componentref name="jboss/jbosssx-client" version="2.0.1-SNAPSHOT"/> - Security libs are waiting on Anil, he will tag tomorrow. - The jboss-ejb3-cache tag (Carlo) is waiting on jboss-javaee. Some tagging issues there: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4533 http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4687 - AOP 2.0.0.beta + Javassist 3.6.0.GA is on track (Kabir/Chiba). - JBoss Transactions, Jonathan almost there for producing an updated to a 4.3.x version. - JBoss Messaging, waiting for the final 1.4.0.GA release. Will have to wait for next week. - JGroups. Need to move to v.2.5 ASAP - Hibernate Validator, we'll be adding this, as it is now an independent package. - JBoss Common needs updating, initially at snapshot (Anil?) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Testsuites http://cruisecontrol.jboss.com/cc/buildresults/jboss-head-testsuite-sun-1.5 The CC runs are unstable due to a server minimal shutdown issue http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4587 The hudson noip builds also got a little worse due to ongoing clustering test refactoring http://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/job/JBoss-AS-5.0.x-TestSuite-sun15-noip/ A large part of our testsuite is failing due to the deployer changes. If you work on the AS testsuite, record your work/findings here: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4636 Other ----- The AppClient deployer needs refactoring as ejb-refs resolved from 1.4 appclients have no connection to ejb3 deployment types. http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCTS-654 http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4707 Some important EJB3 dependencies: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-1026 (done?) http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4423 (work on-going) http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4679 (waiting on ThomasD) The JIRA for AS5 needs further work and cleaning up http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS Blockers and Criticals are the important ones, so make sure you mark as such what must make it into a release, and preferably start working on it. For important issues we need to track in this status report, please send me an email. Thanks /Dimitris
