Status, CC: World

Comments[0] by Dave in Blogging

I post my status every Monday on our internal blog server and I'm going to start doing the same thing here. Except for the boring day-to-day operational stuff, most of my status is CC: World.

  • Roller 1.1.2: I fixed serveral bugs in Roller's built-in (Lucene based) search engine last week. I got some tips from Matt Schmidt at Javalobby, who had done the same but in the Roller 1.0 branch. I hope to release 1.1.2 with those fixes this week; probably the last release from the 1.1 banch. David Lindsey helped with testing.
  • Roller 1.2: since integrating Planet Roller and adding some UI unit-testing stuff, I've haven't been contributing much to 1.2, except for testing and deployment. Roller 1.2 is due out in mid-June, but it's already running a couple of sites (incuding this one).
  • Roller 2.0: I've been trying to focus on work in the Roller 2.0 (the group blogging release), but daily fires and 1.X kept getting into the way of progress. Plus, I didn't want to create the 2.0 branch until I had UI unit testing stuff ready in CVS head. Last week, I started working on the database and persistent object changes.
  • Roller@Apache: Apache has the Contributor License Agreements for all Roller commiters and the grant form, now we just need some karma. I hope we'll be moving into Subversion in the next week.
  • RSS and Atom In Action: After completing all chapters, I went back and looked at Chapter 5 How to parse newsfeeds again. It was really bad and I ended up completely rewriting it over the Memorial Day weekend. Now I'm focused on implementing an Atom protocol client and server so I can wrap up Chapter 8.
  • JavaOne 2005: I made travel arrangements for JavaOne. I'll be arriving Sunday before and leaving on Friday after. I'm also planning on being in Menlo Park for a Thursday afternoon blogs.sun.com users group meeting. My talk is at 12 noon, Thursday.
