<target_environments>
<html:h3>Supported Eclipse Platform</html:h3>
<html:p>Goal is that the Stardust Kepler Release will be compatible with eclipse platform versions Kepler (4.3) as well as Juno (4.2).</html:p>
<internationalization>
<html:div>All Stardust components support full internationalization via resource bundles. The Kepler version will at least contain language bundles
in English and German.</html:div>
</internationalization>
</target_environments>
<compatibility_with_previous_releases>
<html:div>
Stardust Kepler will be able to process workflow models and audit trail databases created with previous Stardust versions.
Compatibility may be provided via migration tooling (upgrade jobs).
Whether eclipse workspace compatibility will be provided has not been decided yet.
</html:div>
</compatibility_with_previous_releases>
<themes_and_priorities>
<preamble>
<html:div>Aside of working on features, the main priority of this release will be to establish support for the Kepler and Juno platform versions and
perform all necessary version upgrades to upstream eclipse plugins and other third party libraries that will be required in the process.
</html:div>
</preamble>
<theme name="Runtime Platform Upgrades">
<description>
<html:div>
Some of the supported runtime platforms will be modernized. This will likely include support for:
<html:ul>

<html:li>JBoss Application Server 7.1</html:li>
<html:li>Tomcat 7</html:li>
</html:ul>
</html:div>
</description>
</theme>
<theme name="Enhanced Maven Support">
<description>
<html:ul>
<html:li>The Stardust build files will be refactored to fully rely on Maven mechanisms and eliminate other
build technologies wherever possible.</html:li>
<html:li>Consumption of the Stardust engine with its transient dependencies via Maven will be further simplified
for consuming projects.</html:li>
<html:li>Maven archetypes will be provided that allow for automated assembly of Stardust server deployments.</html:li>
</html:ul>
