Re: [babel-dev] Plugin Versioning, Releasing, ...
|
Hi
ok... I will bump everything to 0.9.0, you were right btw, there is
something special about "1.0"
"Incubation Phase projects may make 0.N releases (e.g., 0.2, 0.5, 0.7,
...) but may not release an N.0 or greater releases (e.g., not 1.0, 1.2,
2.0, ...). A project ready to make a 1.0 release is a project ready to
graduate from Incubation. All major releases (i.e., 0.N and M.N)
releases, must go through a Release Review" [0], [1].
In other words, with a 1.0 Release we would also exit incubation phase.
I just quickly went over the requirements for a Release Review and I
have to say, this sounds like quite a bit of work. I do think that
leaving Incubation (especially after such a long time) should be a mid
term goal for the Babel project, but I rather doubt that we'll manage to
handle it until March.
What do you guys think?
Regarding the parent pom, I think I will go with "babel-parent" (same as
"egit-parent")
cheers

Depending on your level of comfort, we could perhaps target a 1.0
release for EclipseCon in March? I do agree that getting TapiJi
plugins to a 0.9.0 and available for download is our top priority.
Once the files are available for download I'll work with you to fix
the Babel website and download pages.
As for the parent pom, I really don't know what is involved. Please do
what you feel is best.

Hi
while going through the Maven pom files that Martin has created, I
noticed that we have inconsistent versioning between the "old" Babel
plugings and the TapiJI plugins. The former are currently on
0.8.0.SNAPSHOT while the latter are on 0.0.2.SNAPSHOT. I think this
is unnecessary and will just confuse potential users and
developers/contributors.
My question therefore:
* Is there any reason not to bump all plugins to a common version?
* What should we use as a version?
** a) just bump TapiJI to "0.8.0"
** b) bump all plugins to "0.9.0" - I prefer this ;)
** c) bump all plugins to "1.0.0"
Furthermore, can we talk about a roadmap to releasing the babel
plugins? I think we should be at a stage where we should be able to
at least release a "beta" version. Any thoughts?
On a side note: I would like to change the artifact-id of the parent
pom from "org.eclipse.babel.tapiji.tools.parent" to either
"babel.parent" or just "parent" as it is used both for tapiji and
non-tapiji modules.
cheers
Stefan
