The final (GA) release of Nuxeo EP 5.2 should be ready in less than a month now. Here are some notes on how we plan to proceed with the final sprint until the release:

• you will find below a list of the issues we’d like to address before the release (some of them might already have been addressed).

• most of these issues have been affected to teams or developers, who are working on them during this sprint.

• so next release, 5.2 RC, is scheduled in two weeks (Friday 27th) and hopefully will be feature-complete (and fairly stable).

• the final release will happen after some testing and eventual bugfixing, hopefully less than a couple of weeks later.

Sun has launched GlassFish Portfolio yesterday.

During the pre-launch press conference in Paris, we’ve been invited by Sun to present how we are integrating GlassFish in our open source ECM technology stack. (Many thanks to Alexis for the invitation).

I outlined the top 10 reasons why GlassFish is a good match to both our open source business model and our technology needs:

• 10: GlassFish Embedded
• 9: Provisioning and administration (Update Center)
• 8: Standard process (JCP), preview of cool technologies (JAX-RS, EJB 3.1 / Java EE 6)
• 7: Interoperability (ex: Metro)
• 6: Developers agility (short startup time, scripting support)
• 5: Documentation, support
• 4: Reference implementation of the Java EE 5 standard
• 3: HK2 microkernel (modularity, OSGi, service orientation, dependency injection)
• 2: Quality, enterprise-readiness, performance and scalability
• 1: Momentum, open source community
