[Cosmo-dev] [Sum] Nov 5-11

[Ted Leung]

Here's the summary of the activity on cosmo-dev for the week of  
November 5, 2006

New threads:
-------
Stephen Reindl reported a problem using Cosmo 0.5 with Evolution 2.8  
and included a patch to fix some of the problem
+ Brian Moseley pointed out that there are other interop problems on  
the Evolution side

Brian Moseley proposed breaking Cosmo into separate webapps as a way  
to allow deployers to pick what functionality they got.  This arose  
out of a discussion on the design list regarding access to the Cosmo  
Home Collection Browser
+ The discussion wound back and forth across the design list.  While  
lots of people were sympathetic to the solution, a number of people  
were concerned about the time it would take, and it seems like this  
is unlikely to happen until after the Preview release.

Continuing Conversations:
-------

Travis Vachon proposed that we upgrade to Spring 2.0 along with Maven  
2.0.   Big benefits would be simplified configuration files.
+ Ted Leung wondered how long it was going to take to get to Maven 2.0

Randy Letness posted his first cut at a proposal for the new sharing  
format/protocol work for Cosmo 0.6

between EIM records and Cosmo's underlying relational store, and some  
observations about mantaining performance in a Chandler like system
+ Morgen Sagen started working on the EIM record types <http://
