[jboss-rpm] JBoss AS RPM weekly news, 10th March

Hi All, This week we have some nice progress on packaging AS7! Read on! 1. Current status: 85/59/25/1 85 packages in total 59 packages in Rawhide / F17 25 packages in progress 1 packages having issues Yes, 14 new packages were added and 9 pushed to Fedora comparing to last week. This is a great progress mostly thanks to Ricardo Argüello! But we need reviewers at this point. If you can help us - please take a package from the table below and review it. Preferable - please take a look at all jboss-*-api packages, as they are blockers for other packages. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JBossAS7#Current_progress Don't forget to update the table afterwards! Thanks in advance! 2. JBoss AS web module is commited! This means that we have initial support for web apps. I was able to deploy a simple web app based on JSP. More testing coming soon. 3. Legal issues resolved All legal issues we had in past were resolved upstream - I cleared everything which was our direct dependency at this point, yay! 4. Updating packages I'm also in the progress of updating packages that are already in Fedora. This includes version bumps and removing the 'jboss/' directory which is mentioned here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JBossAS7#Rules_for_JBoss-related_packages 5. TCK The plan for Fedora 17 is to package web profile, as you know. Carlo and I are preparing ourselves to run TCK test on the packaged AS. 6. Close? I feel that we are pretty close to stop adding new packages to have web profile backed in. This is very good news, as we can slowly start to focus on testing and usability of the distribution rather than only on packaging effort. That's all. As usual - feel free to add your notes! --Marek
