Architecture Meeting

Meeting Time

Please use #apache-wink on irc.freenode.net, our IRC channel. 9 AM Eastern Time on June 23, 2009 is the proposed meeting time.

Agenda

Here are the primary things we want to discuss:

• Short term goals
  1. JAX-RS 1.0 compliance
  2. What are the absolutely required features beyond this?

• Choosing a runtime architecture
• Required plug points into runtime
  1. Handlers - an ability to add user handlers; change system handlers
  2. Extensible Metadata - an ability to collect the custom meta-data (e.g. custom annotations), this can be also achieved by using handlers
  3. Extensible Lifecycle Manager - define custom scopes, use spring scopes when integrating with Spring
  4. Extensible Custom field/parameters injection - can be used with custom annotations
• Third party dependencies (should we grow our own ATOM support or use Abdera?)
• How to modularize
• Testing
  1. How to do unit tests (which Mock Object framework?)
  2. How to do integration tests

• Long term goals
  1. Spring integration
  2. Support of additional endpoints
  3. What are some goals that may take longer than the next few weeks to do?

Things that may be discussed:

• Submitting an Eclipse/(Other IDE) code style template
• I don't know if it's the Apache Way or not but commit before review until we get close to declaring a release?
