GlassFish v2/Appserver 9.1 Developers,

***READ and TAKE ACTION***

Thanks again for significant progress made in Milestone2. We are
starting to work on Milestone 3 (MS3). The beta release (of both GF v2
and SDK) is scheduled for Jan 15, 2007. The beta date is a slight change
from the original proposal of Dec 11 and this change helps align with
SDK release. The milestone page
<http://www.glassfishwiki.org/gfwiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Milestones> has been
updated to reflect this change. FCS is still targeted for Apr 07. Here
is a summary of remaining milestones and proposed criteria:

    * MS3 Freeze (Feature complete) is Oct 31, 2006
          o Criteria: All Features completed
          o All JSR MRs filed and changes implemented
    * MS3 completion is Dec 11, 2006
          o No P1s.
          o Max 2 P2s per module (combined bugster dashboard

            and issue tracker dashboard
            <https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/reports.cgi?state=Open+issues&issue_type=DEFECT&containing=&type=case-insensitive+substring&x=Subcomponent&y=Priority>)
          o All P3/S1 bugster bugs
            <http://monaco.sfbay/list.jsf?product=sunone_application_server&hook4Opt=2&area=Defect&CRrelease=null%2C9*&hook4=as91-na%2Cas91-fixed&title=Open+Bugs+with+Target+Release+9*%2C+null&hook2=as9-na&severity=1&priority=3&hook2Opt=2>
            need to be fixed
          o Forward port all 8.2 bugs <http://monaco.sfbay/url/8t0>
          o P3s per module cannot exceed a max number. (Tell us what
            this should be for your module. You will need to resolve all
            P3s by FCS in any case. So, a higher cap means more bugs
            towards the end and is more risky)
    * Beta Release is Jan 15 2007
          o Bug Criteria: No P1, No P2
    * FCS is Apr 07
          o Bug Criteria: No P1s, No P2s, No P3s (and no unevaluated S1s
            in bugster)

To have a realistic feature freeze date and bug criteria, we would like
to seek input from all of you. So, please provide input on the following
by updating the wiki page
<http://www.glassfishwiki.org/gfwiki/Wiki.jsp?page=GFv2MS3CriteriaInputFromEngineers>:

    * Will you be able to complete your features by Oct 31? If not, when
      will it be done? Please mention performance changes separately.
    * Will you be able to meet proposed bug criteria
      <http://www.glassfishwiki.org/gfwiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Milestone3ExitCriteria>?
      If not, what is a realistic goal for Dec 11?
    * Provide a max number for P3s (bugster and issuetracker combined)
      for your module (for module leads).

*Please update the wiki page
<http://www.glassfishwiki.org/gfwiki/Wiki.jsp?page=GFv2MS3CriteriaInputFromEngineers>
with your input before 10/4.*
(Do not reply to this mail with your input)

thanks
-Sridatta, Dhiru, Carla.
