| [science-iwg] Science release, target platform and Orbit version |
|
Dear all, I've been spending some time (learning how to) adding the Apache XML RPC and WS Common Utils to the Orbit project, and finally seem to be ready with that. The gerrit review should be ok now and the merge will be done in the coming days This is a prerequisite for a clean Triquetrum target platform that also must support the Java->Python integration via an XML-RPC bridge (extracted from DAWN and contributed by Jonah). Now the main issue : - the analysis RPC stuff to provide a bridge to Python needs those (4) bundles as dependencies - it should be part of our Triquetrum release, within the Science release - Orbit will only offer those bundles in an Oxygen M2 milestone build, sometime in september (or I can request to promote a nightly build sooner) - we'll be on the Mars.x (or Neon if multiplatform builds can be made to work) as principal target platform So this could be a problem both in : - timing, as we would like to finish our work sometime mid September to allow sufficient time for all reviews etc - and in "version"? I.e. do we allow to depend on Orbit for Oxygen for our builds/releases? What would be the best approach? regards erwin |
