Glassfish V3 Plugin Post TP2 Concepts & Tasks
General Thoughts for 6.5
- GlassFish team is now planning GlassFish V3 Lite (FCS web container ready sometime between August and November, 2008, give or take). Plugin team is now planning on adding the GlassFish V3 plugin for NetBeans into the NetBeans main trunk in time for inclusion into NetBeans 6.5 to allow for a NetBeans-V3 bundled distribution.
- NB 6.5 features and API changes required by V3 plugin and V3 plugin features required by V3 Lite must be done by NB 6.5 feature freeze (currently 7/14, see schedule link at bottom). It may be possible to beg & plead to add a defining feature to the plugin after this date, but don't count on it. This should be reserved for features added to V3 Lite after NB feature freeze that we couldn't possibly have anticipated.
- Task list is not a promise to deliver. Currently it is a goal and as the 7/14 deadline nears, we may drop or reprioritize items as time and resources required.
