| Title: July2007 |
| CURRENT FOCUS |
| |
| Primary activities in the project are around polishing up features, |
| user-facing code, reducing dependencies, documentation, and taking care of |
| legal in preparation for the coming 3.0 release. No real issues stand in |
| the way at this point, builds and voting should start soon. |
| |
| CONTRIBUTIONS |
| |
| More wonderful documentation contributions have been made by contributor |
| Karan Malhi who is actively scraping our list archives and creating |
| documentation from old emails. |
| |
| EXTERNAL INVOLVEMENT |
| |
| Contributed managed connection support to commons-dbcp. This will eliminate |
| our custom database pooling code, and adds an important new feature to |
| DBCP. This feature should be useful to anyone using DBCP in a managed |
| environment such at Tomcat. Also, OpenEJB has a large set of data base test |
| case, and we have already found a few bugs to fix in DBCP for which we are |
| working on fixes. |
