Geronimo Project Board Report

All in all it was fairly quiet at the end of the year. The project team has been focusing on two releases. 1.2-beta was released that includes integration of three projects from the incubator (OpenEJB, Yoko and OpenJPA). 2.0-M1 was released that includes many of the new Java EE 5.0 technologies. The project is working towards a goal of completing a certified server in time for Java One. 2.0-M1 also pulled in CXF from the Incubator.

Subprojects

• DayTrader
  Released a performance report on Geronimo in October. DayTrader was the benchmark sample used for comparisons. The report can be found at http://people.apache.org/~hogstrom/Geronimo-1.1.1-PerformanceReport.pdf^{Image Modified}

• DevTools
  1.2.0 was released in November. This included the ability to fully edit Geronimo.xml plans.

• XBean
  Version 2.8 was released in early January

• Specifications
  Specifications were reorganized after several months of debate. Rather than having a single version for the specifications each one is packaged separately. Dain Sundstrom volunteered to help keep the releases and organization going.

Other work

• WADI clustering has been moving forward
• GCache has continued development but there has not been a lot of activity on the list.
• New JMX console was added to Geronimo 1.2
• JNDI / Classloader viewer was added by a new community member. Really neat stuff.
