Hi,
I am going to start looking into the issue with Archiva hanging on
repository.maven.org, then look at getting a release together, since
there has been a spike in interest and we can't really just
recommend
people grab it from SVN.
Other than that issue, does anyone have any "must fixes" for a
release?
Two concrete show stoppers I think are that it doesn't convert
repositories properly. I've found several things and the groovy
conversion problem that cropped up a few days ago.
Even on local setups Archiva will fall over. Joakim has found this
with his install and I have found it with mine.
Over the course of December the only things that have been worked on
are Security, some conversion to common stuff, and the logo. No work
done on the conversion, the proxy, or the reporting. I just honestly
don't think it does anyone any service releasing it like this.
I've been trying to get archiva pulled into a decent profiler so I can
track down the apparent memory leak we have. The reason there hasn't
been any commits is because I don't have a solution yet. ;-)
As for the release. I think making an 1.0-alpha-1 release would be
good
at this point.
Yup, an alpha is fine.
It will help if we have more people banging away at it.
Having more test cases. Having more jiras around it. We know form
our
own testing what needs to be fixed. We can start with that list for
1.0-alpha-2. By then we'll hopefully have more input from other
peoples
out there.
Sounds perfectly reasonable.
Jason.
