Turbine core project

There has been quite a bit of progress towards Turbine 2.3.3:

  • Thomas Vandahl has added l10n support to the ParameterParser (cleaning up the code quite a bit in the process) and integrated this into the Intake validation service. In the process of doing this Thomas has removed a few undesirable service interdependencies, thus resolving a long standing stumbling block on our quest to separate the services out of turbine core.
  • Dependency versions have been updated.

The 2.3.3 release is now pretty much ready to go. Thomas Vandahl is mentoring Juergen Hoffmann through the release process.

Discussion on the naming of a future trunk release has been kicked off. The possibility of jumping to "Turbine 4" is being considered.

Henning stopped by and committed a DOAP file for the Turbine project.

No beta or final releases were made since the last board report.

Fulcrum component project

Siegfried Goeschl continues to commit tweaks to the fulcrum components as well as some work on migrating the build process to Maven 2. Thomas has also been maintaining fulcrum components in parallel with the equivalent changes to turbine core.

No beta or final releases were made since the last board report.
