Committing to Struts
February 7th, 2007 by HenYep, I’m a Struts committer now! Fear me.
So today saw a few JIRA issues closed and a couple of commits made to the Struts 1.x trunk. My aim will be to spend a bit of time each week looking at the 1.x issues and working on them. But first….
I need to get the Jakarta Standard Taglib released. We’re getting close to having all the issues tidied away. I’ve got a request in for the TCK, no idea what to expect there. It’s an interesting exercise in making the least amount of change to have the most amount of impact. I hacked in a caching SPI today, but I think it’s probably a bit too much change.
The Lang release failed its RC2. The legal files were missing from the Maven2 -sources/-javadoc jars. Bugger. Drawing board etc.
I’m definitely feeling the urge to do some coding rather than bugfixing/releasing. JIRA customizations are top of the list - just some simple things, like having a drop down selection list of your filters to conserve space, and being able to hardcode a list of filters. I’d also like to reverse engineer some rules from our triage process at work for use in a JBoss Rule engine somehow - seems like fun, time permitting.
