New OFBiz stable release

Juan Pablo
Hello Community.

I'm testing the last trunk version and the demo version published in
Internet (http://demo.ofbiz.org). They've got new functionality: help on
line, new themes, new features in accounting, manufacturing and ordermgr
components. The last stable versión is actually 9.04. So, ¿When will Ofbiz
try a new stable release version?.

Gracias/Thank You.

There is no set date yet. The last release was in April 2009 (hence the version number of 09.04 on it), and the one before that was about 2 years before. Chances are it won't be another 2 years before another release, but probably at least a year... so perhaps we'll do another release branch in around 4 months.

Its good to know that people have interest in release version. Lots of new features were added since last release, It will be good to do next one in April 2010.

In reply to this post by David E. Jones-2
I think its time to start thinking on the things that should be taken
care in / before release branch 10.04.

Bug fixing should be the major area which should be taken care
extensively in next two months.
What about new features etc. etc.?

Please comment.
Thanks!

I expect to fulfill
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3442
and maybe
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3445

In other word to use layer lookups instead of popup lookups everywhere it's possible in OFBiz.
From my 1st serie of tests it seems to work well almost everywhere, WIP...

Re: New OFBiz stable release

In order to have this kind of issue scheduling could you please create
a new OFBIZ version in jira and set the Fix Version of these issue on
that?
I do not see any clearer way to answer to Ashish question.

I agree but after Jacopo's message on dev ML about new release strategy (on which I mostly agree) I will at least delay it...

Re: New OFBiz stable release

Anil Patel-3
So, are we set for next Ofbiz Branch named 10.04 ?

If we decide on _date_, I can have a team of developers scheduled to start testing branch code. This will allow to quickly stabilize ofbiz release for common ecommerce use.

How about EOD March 31st 10 GMT?

If we are planning on creating a new release, then the migration to
tomcat 6.0.24 should be included, as there was security issues.
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3424>

Also, if we have a new release, should we deprecate the 4.0 version ?

Cheers,

It would be nice to get the new security code included in the branch -
even if it is disabled. That will give release users an introduction to
it and give them a chance to work on an upgrade strategy.

Makes sense to me. If we are decided on date, we still have a month to go. Gives plenty of time, may be :)

Jacques,
This is big one. With new backend theme and other UI goodies, Next release should be well accepted by community.

Re: New OFBiz stable release

Ruth Hoffman-2
In reply to this post by Anil Patel-3
Hi Anil:

I'm not sure how to read the Jira issue report, so maybe you can help me
understand this. If I look at the Jira issues page
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ, it says that there are 585
open issues of which 283 are considered "critical". Is this true? I mean
is it true that there are over 500 open issues related to a version of
OFBiz that you propose to release as a new stable release?

Regards,
Ruth

Re: New OFBiz stable release

David E. Jones-2
In reply to this post by Anil Patel-3

One quick thing to note, that seems to be confused here: the release branch is a tool for stabilization. It's great to do testing and fixing in the trunk, but the goal for a release branch is not to be tested and bug-free from day one, but rather to be stable so that real testing and bug fixing can be done in the release branch without worrying about new things possibly breaking something, or any other conflicting priorities.

Doesn't this contradict previous statements or non-statements about bug

Re: New OFBiz stable release

Ruth Hoffman-2
Hello Anil:

How about a recent thread called "Rethinking our release strategy" dated
Feb 15th, 2010 which I shall partially repeat here for your convenience:

     > * because of this, no real maintenance plan, test strategy etc..
    has been created around it (9.04) from the community of users and
    interested parties (in fact we were not really able to officially
    release it)

     > * a lot of new users start eveluating OFBiz from that instead of
    the trunk
     > * it is rather old, several new features are missing and also
    code improvements (that could fix bugs etc)
     >
    I thought all the bug fixes were retrofitted to the release? Is this not
    true?
     > * because of this, it tends to be less stable than the trunk
     >
    How could the release be less stable than the trunk if bug fixes are
    applied to the release and the trunk?
     > The main cons of this situations are the following:
     > 1) not real interest in maintaining a release branch means that
    we will not be able to spend time on it and officially release it:
    the OFBiz community will miss the advantage of using the marketing
    channel represented by a new release
     > 2) new users will get the wrong impression that the project is
    slowing improving if they just get the releases

For a true sense of the thread, please see this quote in context. I'll
give you a hint, no one from the project came out and said that bug
fixes are applied to Releases. The implication (and thus non-statement)
is that the "trunk" is it as far as bug fixes are concerned.

Regards,
Ruth
