Hi, Now that the first changes in HV are being made towards BV 2.0, one question is which version of HV that should be.
For BV we are doing a major version jump from 1.1 to 2.0 as the minimum Java version is raised. So I'm suggesting to do the same for HV and jump to a new major, HV 6. We also may get rid of some HV-specific SPIs and replace them with ones standardized in BV 2.0, which are breaking changes by their nature and thus also justify the new major*. Assuming we agree on moving to HV 6 for BV 2.0, what should happen to the current 5.3 family? We did an Alpha of it a while ago. Just leaving it behind like that would look very bad IMO. So I'm inclined to release a quick CR + Final, essentially containing what has been done prior to the BV 2.0 work (plus maybe some more bug fixes). That should happen rather quickly so we can focus on HV 6. Also WF could get that next 5.3 to contain the latest fixes of the BV 1.1 RI. If there are no objections to that plan, I'd move forward with it and aim for 5.3.CR1 release some time next week. Thanks, --Gunnar * ResourceBundleLocator comes to mind which would be obsolete in its current form when splitting up the notions of message interpolation and resource bundle retrieval _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
