| |
| <p>The objective of the <strong>Struts 1.0-beta-1</strong> release is to |
| create a milestone release against which a final series of bug fixes and |
| documentation updates can occur before a <strong>Struts 1.0 Final</strong> |
| release is created.</p> |
| |
| </section> |
| |
| |
| <section name="The Plan" href="Plan"> |
| |
| <p>The code base for Struts has been in an informal "feature freeze" for |
| several weeks, while development focus has been on bug fixes and the |
| completion of required documentation. Both of these goals have been |
| substantially achieved, so it is time for a formal beta release - with |
| the goal of moving quickly to a final <strong>Struts 1.0</strong> release |
| shortly thereafter, if no disabling defects are found.</p> |
| |
| <p>Therefore, the following release plan is proposed for Struts 1.0-beta-1: |
| </p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><em>Code Freeze / Tag Date</em> - Wednesday, February 21, 2001</li> |
| <li><em>Release Manager</em> - Craig McClanahan</li> |
| <li><em>Release Announcement</em> - To the following mailing lists and |
| web sites: |
| <ul> |
| <li>ANNOUNCEMENTS@JAKARTA.APACHE.ORG</li> |
| <li>GENERAL@JAKARTA.APACHE.ORG</li> |
| <li>STRUTS-DEV@JAKARTA.APACHE.ORG</li> |
| <li>STRUTS-USER@JAKARTA.APACHE.ORG</li> |

| |
| |
| <section name="Release Criteria" href="Criteria"> |
| |
| <p>Prior to the release of Struts 1.0-beta-1, the following action items |
| must be completed:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>All <a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/">Bugzilla</a> bug reports |
| against Struts 1.0 nightly builds MUST be marked as "Resolved", with any |
| of the legal Bugzilla resolutions (FIXED, INVALID, WONTFIX, LATER, |
| REMIND, WORKSFORME).</li> |
| <li>Bug reports that are resolved as LATER or REMIND will include comments |
| as to whether those specific issues will be dealt with in a subsequent |
| 1.0 beta or final release, or whether they will be scheduled for |
| consideration in a subsequent release time frame.</li> |
| <li>Any remaining items on the Struts 1.0 TODO list shall be completed.</li> |
| <li>The Struts 1.0 Release Notes document shall be updated to describe |
| substantial changes and improvements since the Struts 0.5 release, |
| along with associated updates to the main Struts Documentation |
| Application pages describing the new release.</li> |
| <li>All of the Struts example applications that are included with the release |
| shall operate successfully in the following servlet containers: |
| <ul> |
| <li><a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat">Tomcat 3.2.1</a></li> |
| <li><a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat">Tomcat 4.0</a> (Current |
| nightly build)</li> |
| </ul></li> |
| <li>A release vote shall take place on the STRUTS-DEV mailing list to |
| approve this plan. The release vote MUST pass by "Majority Approval" |
| of Struts committers.</li> |
| </ul> |
