Re: [geomesa-dev] [geomesa-users] GeoMesa 1.2.1 release

I'll admit that I had the same thought. At least initially.

1.2.1 sounds like a service release to me. But since you referenced only www.geomesa.org web addresses, I assumed that the service release was out of stream with the work being done at LocationTech.

I cannot sort out where the downloads are hosted. Please update your project metadata [1] to include pointers to the downloads.

Are downloads being distributed from locationtech.org?

Thanks,

Wayne

Hi Andrea,

We intend to follow Semantic Versioning as best as possible.  As such, the 1.2.1 artifacts contain a number of bug fixes, and any additions, while valuable, are not particularly significant.  Per the LT Handbook (1), "Service releases include bug fixes only and include no significant new functionality."

Since we are trying to precise with language, I will acknowledge that GeoMesa 1.2.1 is a service release.

In terms of Eclipse process, the high-level goal is to ensure that the artifacts which a LocationTech project produces are business-friendly and IP clean.  We have completed that in its entirety for the 1.2.0 release.  Between 1.2.0 and 1.2.1, the code contributions have been from GeoMesa committers and any changes in dependencies have been filled appropriately and are basically version updates for previously updated projects. 

In terms of missing steps, I'm trying to figure out what we missed...  The LT handbook further states: "Release reviews are not required for bug-fix/service releases."  At the minute, we are behind on working through Eclipse's jar signing service and publishing to LT's download server.  Perhaps some of those details would be better for a discussion on the LT PMC or IWG email lists since other projects will be interested in the details of cutting service/bug-fix releases in the LT eco-system.

Cheers,

Jim

Dear Jim,

Congrats to you and the team on version 1.2.1!

This may seem like a minor point, but it's quite important. If you would, please refrain from calling software made available outside of the official release process a release. To do so confuses & dilutes the value of official releases. Feel free to call it a milestone, checkpoint, integration build, or just about any roughly synonymous term, except release.

Also, we'd really like to see GeoMesa 1.2.0 (the official release) up on the official download site so we can track the downloads. That'll help us keep a close eye on the trend over time to see growth, what works and what doesn't promoting the releases.

Cheers,

Andrea

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce the GeoMesa 1.2.1 release.  Artifacts are available from LocationTech's Nexus repo.  The changelog is here: https://geomesa.atlassian.net/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10000&version=11900. The documentation at http://www.geomesa.org/documentation/ has been updated.

Of note, among the bug fixes (like improving support for non-point geometries in heatmap generation and fixing DWITHIN again), there are few new features worth calling out:

Accumulo:
GEOMESA-1107 Adds support for S3A ingest (to the existing S3 support).
GEOMESA-960/1011 allows for pushing statistics calculations down to the tablet servers.  In particular, there's now a little DSL for generating multiple histograms with one WPS call.

Kafka:
GEOMESA-1110 Implements the GeoTools Feature Event Listener API for the Kafka Data Store.  Tutorial/example code is available (1).
GEOMESA-1130 Allows a consumer to specify a filter to limit features added to the in-memory map.

For Kafka, a new load tester example is here (2).

Cheers,

Jim
