[ee4j-build] EE4J Build Team discussion Notes (Jan 31, 2018)

[Ed Bratt <ed.bratt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Notes from the EE4J Build team meeting this morning.

CI/CD progress

JSON P looks close to final CI/CD status. Will file an issue to request final resource allocation from Eclipse. Should be publishing soon -- Well done Tomas!

GlassFish builds still encountering resource allocation problems. Have been working through issues with Eclipse support -- making progress.

No progress with MQ or JMS builds.

Tomas' CI/CD HowTo is looking quite complete. Will continue to be updated. Please review and post comments.

This is Oracle internal for now. When we know where to host details like this. GlassFish team to publish similar notes as things settle down.

Issue migration

Desire is to preserve issue ids. This is complicated because Issues and PRs use the same number-space.

Desired features:

• Preserve issue IDs
• Create a "blank" issue for any PR. Provide a link back to JavaEE GitHub repo.
• When issues are migrated -- provide a forward reference to the new issue from Java EE GitHub Repo.
• Close the issue in Java EE GitHub issue.

May require custom modifications to do this. Original tools won't take care of this. Open Source tools may be useful for starting this.

Arindam to provide update at COB Friday.

Recording of the meeting is available. Let me know if you want access.
