1. Re: Planning RC2
Fixing/documenting API conflicts between Branch_4_0 and HEAD
IMHO we should abandon/remove the sources in jboss-4.0.x and encourcage all projects to align with the binary RC1 release. The necessary changes are relatively trivial and there should be room todo so until jboss-4.0.4.
JBossXB functional tests should live together with its sources (currently in head) and should be removed from the 4.0.x testsuite. Integration tests should stay.
Generally, I think its a waste of resources to maintain more that one xml binding implementation other than the one we have in head.JBossWS-1.0RC2 XB issues
Naturally I think this is important. However Shaun and Scott might want to provide input on the JBossWS release schedule. JBossWS-1.0 final was promissed for the end of last year and is now pessimistically rescheduled to the end of Q1/2006 -
2. Re: Planning RC2
Ok, so the goal of RC2 is going to be:
- obviously, completing the task of making the XB to be a separate project (in addition, until it's done MC, for example, cannot become a separate project also)
- and solving urgent issues for WS-RC2
This also includes:
- fixing/documenting API conflicts between Branch_4_0 and HEAD (JBXB-45)
- optionally clean-up and removal of unused prototypes
This doesn't include:
- reducing dependency on Xerces
- repackaging and review of public API
- in WS, switching to the new SchemaBinding-based marshaller -

The task of making the project standalone has been postponed since it requires a number of changes in the JBoss build system.
