[proposal] Generate "javadoc-like" documentation for feature packs
by Jeff Mesnil
Hi,
I’ve created a proposal[1] to generate a documentation archive when a feature pack is created (similar to the javadoc archive that is generated when a Java jar is built by Maven)
I’m looking for a feature team to work on this proposal.
Jean-Francois and Emmanuel already provided some PoC around this idea so I nominated you as SMEs :)
But I’d need another outside perspective to fully form the team.
This RFE does not impact the runtime so stability level is not directly applicable but I aim to do something equivalent to the quality expected by the “community” stability level.
Best regards,
Jeff

WildFly 38 schedule
by Brian Stansberry
Following are the planned dates for the WildFly 38 Beta and Final releases.
Please note that these are a week later than we'd originally discussed.
WildFly 38 Beta
PRs due -- Wed Sep 24
Tag and deploy -- Wed Oct 1
Publish release -- Thu Oct 2
WildFly 38 Final
PRs due -- Wed Oct 8
Tag and deploy -- Wed Oct 15
Publish release -- Thu Oct 16
Note that the PR deadline for things going into 38 Beta via WildFly Core
will be particularly strictly enforced this time, as the team producing the
Beta needs to get things done quickly.
As I mentioned before these are a week later than we initially thought.
Adapting project to the new JBoss Nexus environment, plus plenty of well
deserved vacation time for many, meant the original schedule was too tight,
so we'd rather better serve our users by taking a bit more time.
Best regards,

Agenda for the upcoming WildFly community call
by Jean-Frederic Mesnil
Hi,
Next Thursday, we have our 2nd WildFly community call and I’m looking for topics.
I’ve started to fill the agenda at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kjaMGFGtL3MPY58UCJMojLlTzl335DUm1L-P9...
As it coincides with the release of WildFly 38 Beta, it’d be a great opportunity to showcase new features coming to WildFly.
If you have a feature that lands in WildFly 38, can I ask you to add an item in the agenda. You can also present/demo it :)
More generally, I’m looking for topics for future meetings. This meeting is an opportunity to reach out to our users and present what we are doing and what is in our pipeline.
Don’t hesitate to add future topics to the “Meeting Suggestions” tab[1]

Additional mergers for the wildfly/wildfly GitHub repo
by Brian Stansberry
I'm proposing we significantly expand the set of people who have write
permissions to the wildfly/wildfly GitHub repo. The following folks are all
experienced WildFly developers who act as a component lead for components
in the WFLY JIRA project, but they don't have write permissions to the main
server code repository:
Tomasz Adamski
Jean Francois Denise
Emmanuel Hugonnet
Rado Husar
Tom Jenkinson
Jason Lee
Scott Marlow
Eduardo Martins
Brad Maxwell
Matěj Novotny
Richard Opalka
Harald Pehl
Flavia Rainone
Marco Sappe Griot
I think they should all have write perms.
WDYT about this? Please feel free to let me know either here or privately.
I'd like to leave the topic open for discussion for a week and then, if
there is consensus around it, move forward.
Historically, we've had a pretty small set of people with write permissions
to this repository. That made sense in the early days of AS 7 and WildFly
when the scope and structure of the project were changing rapidly. And it
made sense in the years after 2018 when we started releasing quarterly,
which was new, and we added some pretty opaque and hard to understand
processes around feature development.
But those days are long behind us and TBH I think adding more mergers is
long overdue. It's been on my todo list for too long; my apologies for
that! I think these folks have the experience and judgement needed to know
whether pressing the green button is ok or whether it's better to stop and
ask questions or defer to others.
Note: I'm not proposing changing the set of people who rotate in the role
of release coordinator for micro releases. IOW, having write perms to the
repo doesn't mean you have to act as an RC sometimes. Changing the RC
rotation would be a separate discussion.
Best regards,

Confirmation Request: Is WildFly 26.0.1 Final Considered End-of-Life?
by Nadia Rosdie
Dear WildFly Maintainers,
Hope you are well.
We are currently using WildFly 26.0.1 Final in a regulated production
environment and need to confirm the platform's lifecycle status for
internal compliance purposes.
I really need your help to kindly clarify the following:
1. Is WildFly 26.0.1 Final considered End Of Life (EOL) i.e. no longer
supported by WildFly team?
2. If possible, is there any official documentation or page we can refer
to that confirms this status?
FYI, based on our internal records, WildFly 26.0.1 Final was released
in Nov 2021 and WildFly 27.0.0 Final was released in Nov 2022. We believe
support for 26.0.1 Final may have ended around that time but would like to
confirm this with your team.
Thank you very much in advance for your time and kind assistance.
Warm regards,
Nadia Rosdie
Compliance Officer for Takaful Operator.
