| = October 2009 Board Report |
| |
| Aries will deliver a set of pluggable Java components enabling an enterprise OSGi application programming model. |
| |
| Aries entered incubation on September 22, 2009. |
| This is our first board report. |
| |
| There are currently no issues requiring IPMC or Board attention . |
| |
| All infra resources have been set up (svn / site / mailing lists) very quickly. |
| The svn area has been organized with a single trunk for now, though we still need to settle the discussion about components lifecycle and the svn layout. |
| IBM has contributed some code that has been imported into svn and the JNDI modules have already been imported into trunk. |
| Both Geronimo contribution (OSGi Blueprint Services) and ServiceMix contribution (OSGi Transaction Manager) have been imported into trunk. |
| |
| On the community side, we've already voted 3 additional committers (Adam Wojtuniak, Alan Keane and Niclas Hedhman) who had expressed their interest in joining the project just after the acceptance vote on the proposal was launched. |
| |
| There is a lot of discussions and activity on the mailing lists. |
| |
| Top 2 or 3 things to resolve before graduation: |
| |
| * Build community |
| * Create a release |
| * Address project scope concerns raised during acceptance vote |
