Re: [rdf4j-dev] release planning for 4.2.4 and 4.3.0
Hi Jeen,

thanks for the initiative.

I'd like to comment from our perspective on 4.3.0: 

we are currently using the 4.3.0 M1 build (which for us allowed to do the Jakarta EE migration by getting rid of JAXB in the core modules). For our final product release we would like to ship a proper RDF4J release, i.e. 4.3.0. From the timeline it would be really great to have the 4.3.0 out within the next 4 weeks, which should be in line with what you are stating.

One further remark: the current 4.3 snapshot contains the changes to the repository configuration schema / vocabulary. We can offer to test this in the wild (specifically w.r.t backwards compatibility) when there is another M2 milestone. Do you think it makes sense to have another M2 build for this?

Regarding 4.2.4: no strong opinion. If there are fixes, better to roll them out earlier than later :)

Best regards,
 Andreas

hey folks,

I was considering doing a 4.2.4 patch release next week as there's several bug fixes available (see https://github.com/orgs/eclipse/projects/36/views/4 ). There's also a couple of open bug reports, some of which are in progress, but they seem to have stalled a bit (partly due to myself not having a lot of spare time these days).

I'd also like to propose that we start thinking about a release for 4.3.0. Ideally I'd like us to get to a 4.3 final release quite soon, so that afterwards we can merge the 5.0 branch into develop, and give its development more priority.

There's still a lot of open issues planned against 4.3 but I want to do some culling in that, move them back to 5.0 or unplanned until we can get around to them. There's some things I'd _definitely_ like to see included though. For me, the main themes of 4.3.0 are:
  • prep of our project to migrate fully to Jakarta EE (all the work Erik GB has been doing)
  • migration to tag-based config vocabulary
  • various SHACL features and improvements

Thoughts? Questions? Protests?

Jeen
