BOARD STATUS REPORTS
|
||||
|
||||
[18 Apr 2006]
|
||||
|
||||
The last quarter has seen the creation of the WebWork 2 podling and rapid progress. Our focus has been on migrating
|
||||
code, resources, developers, IP, and community over to the ASF.
|
||||
|
||||
- Code: we have imported the code into the Incubator SVN, and have renamed packages, taglib prefixes, and any other
|
||||
references to the old WebWork project over to the new Struts Action Framework 2 project, where the final location of the
|
||||
code will be.
|
||||
|
||||
- Resources: We've migrated the code to the Apache SVN, setup and migrated JIRA tickets to the new issues.apache.org
|
||||
server, and are in the process of migration wiki documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
- Developers: The core WebWork 2 developers have been given accounts and access to the podling, voted in through the
|
||||
proposal. We plan to vote the remaining committers in one-by-one through the Struts PMC, serving as the IPMC for the
|
||||
podling.
|
||||
|
||||
- IP: The OpenSymphony organization, who owns the copyright on the WebWork 2 project, has delivered a code grant
|
||||
allowing us to change the copyright. Additionally, we've removed most of the LGPL source code (usually in the form of
|
||||
Javascript libraries) and have developed an optional build that compiles integration code depending on LGPL jars, in
|
||||
accordance to the draft IP policy document.
|
||||
|
||||
- Community: The WebWork 2 developers have joined the Struts mailing lists and have been very active in participating
|
||||
with both development and user threads. They have been just as, if not more, active committing to the code repository
|
||||
as Struts committers, and when conflicts arise, they are very quick to come to a solution in a positive way. In
|
||||
addition, several Struts committers have joined OpenSymphony forums, chat rooms, and projects further strengthening the
|
||||
relationship.
|
||||
|
||||
We are definitely planning on exiting the Incubator this next quarter, possibly within weeks. We see a bright future
|
||||
for the Struts Action project, and hope to facilitate a new spirit of cooperation within the competitive landscape of
|
||||
Java web application frameworks

MIGRATING FROM ACTION 1 TO ACTION 2
|
||||
|
||||
An area on the wiki is devoted to migrating from Action 1 to Action 2
|
||||
|
||||
* http://wiki.apache.org/struts/StrutsAction2
|
||||
|
||||
There is an Apps area in the sandbox for new Action2 code, starting with
|
||||
example applications.
|
||||
|
||||
* https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/struts/sandbox/trunk/action2/
|
||||
|
||||
** The MailReader application has been ported. Comments and fixes
|
||||
welcome.
|
||||
|
||||
** A new Cookbook application has been started. The suggestion is
|
||||
that we combine the WW Showcase examples and the various Struts
|
||||
Examples into a unified cookbook. The cookbook application can
|
||||
display the code used to create the "recipes", like the Tomcat
|
||||
Example application.
|
||||
|
||||
** The design of the cookbook makes it easy to add new recipes.
|
||||
Please feel free to jump in and contribute!

PACKAGE NAMING
|
||||
|
||||
* org.opensyphony -> org.apache.struts
|
||||
* webwork -> action2
|
||||
|
||||
* tag prefix: saf
|
||||
* property and configuration files: action
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* xwork.xml -> struts-action.xml
|
||||
|
||||
--
|
||||
|
||||
* The Dojo component package was previously 'webwork'.
|
||||
** It is temporarily renamed it to 'struts', but that might conflict
|
||||
with Shale if they create new Dojo components.
|
||||
*** Or perhaps that might be a good thing?
|
||||
|
||||
<< Ted: I'd say rename this component to "action". Apache Struts is
|
||||
the *project* name, like "Open Symphony", not the *product* name,
|
||||
like XWork or Sitemesh. If we name anything new "Struts",
|
||||
it should be because it's something that is being used by multiple
|
||||
Apache Struts products.

WORKING ACTION2 BUILD
|
||||
|
||||
* The WebWork2 Incubator code now builds struts-action-2.0-dev.jar
|
||||
|
||||
** This JAR can be placed into your sandboxes for runtime testing
|
||||
|
||||
* The initial renaming is complete,and the repository seems stable
|
||||
enough to make further changes.
|
||||
|
||||
* The WebWork 2 project had a continuous integration server for automated
|
||||
builds and testing.It would be valuable to have that service, even while
|
||||
in the Incubator.
|
||||
|
||||
** What about setting up a temporary build server either in an
|
||||
Apache zone or on a developer's computer?

CONFLUENCE MIGRATION
|
||||
|
||||
What do we need to do to register the Snippet macro the ASF SVN?
|
||||
|
||||
* http://forums.opensymphony.com/thread.jspa?threadID=24290&tstart=0
|
||||
|
||||
WebWork2 wiki is now readonly. Volunteers may migrate and add content
|
||||
to <http://confluence.twdata.org> at will. Eventually, this content
|
||||
may be transferred directly to a ASF server.

JIRA MILESTONES
|
||||
|
||||
We prefixING the old releases with WW and startING the new releases
|
||||
with a numbering scheme only. In this way, old releases will be
|
||||
archived properly and we do not lose the history.
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
EARLY RELEASE
|
||||
|
||||
Don and Jason will be hosting a Struts session at JavaOne on May 17.
|
||||
It would be helpful if a tagged build of Action2 were available,
|
||||
even if Action2 is not out of the incubator yet (though it may be).
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some of the things we need to do to create a tagged build:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The tickets gone through, keeping only essential tickets against this next release (2.0.0)
|
||||
2. Ensuring the project renaming is complete in a files, including source code comments
|
||||
3. Renaming WW instances on the wiki docs (once we get something stood up)
|
||||
4. Testing some of the new changes like the date picker, rich text editor, and tooltips
|
||||
|
||||
The general release process is described here:
