Versioning

------------------------------- For Cocoon 2 there have been proposals that all odd versions are development/alpha versions and all even versions are stable releases.

I like this idea and propose that we follow this versioning schema in Cocoon 3: All 3.0.x releases are marked as development versions and we clearly explain this on the website and the READMEs of all artifacts.

When we believe that the community and the technology are stable, we do a 3.1.0 release.

I think this is less confusing than appending alpha, beta or milestone postfixes.

SVN

------------------------------- I'm not sure about the new location in SVN. One option I can think of is http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/cocoon3-trunk, the other is http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/branches/cocoon-3

I slightly prefer http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/cocoon3-trunk.

Maven

------------------------------- We've already discussed this and the outcome was that we prefer functional names:

org.apache.cocoon.pipeline:cocoon-pipeline:3.0.0 org.apache.cocoon.sitemap:cocoon-sitemap:3.0.0 org.apache.cocoon.servlet:cocoon-servlet:3.0.0 org.apache.cocoon.controller:cocoon-controller:3.0.0 org.apache.cocoon.rest:cocoon-rest:3.0.0 org.apache.cocoon.stringtemplate:cocoon-stringtemplate:3.0.0

By using the functional name as part of the groupId, Cocoon 2.2 and Cocoon 3 can be used together without getting any problems with the dependency resolution mechanisms of Maven or Ivy.

JAVA NAMESPACES

------------------------------- Coocon 3 will use the "org.apache.cocoon" namespace. The sub-packages are reserved for functional names:

org.apache.cocoon.pipeline org.apache.cocoon.sitemap org.apache.cocoon.servlet org.apache.cocoon.controller org.apache.cocoon.rest org.apache.cocoon.stringtemplate

XML NAMESPACES

------------------------------- Corona currently uses three different namespaces in XML documents:

http://apache.org/cocoon/corona/sitemap http://apache.org/cocoon/corona/servlet http://apache.org/cocoon/corona/controller

These namespaces are without a version number.

Since I don't see how version numbers could help us, I propose

http://apache.org/cocoon/sitemap http://apache.org/cocoon/servlet http://apache.org/cocoon/controller

JIRA

------------------------------- I propose the creation of a COCOON3 project so that Cocoon 2.x and Cocoon 3 issues don't get mixed up.

CI

------------------------------- Apache Infrastructure offers a managed Hudson instance. I propose to setup a Cocoon 3 project there.

Any comments?
