Since the last ALPHA release, we've substantially improved Cayenne
functionality and usability. But there is still a few things that need to
be finished before going BETA. Here is a list of issues I can think of:
1. Fix all reported bugs (there is quiet a few now).
2. [50291] Add PostgreSQL adapter. There were volunteers to look into that
but I haven't heard from them lately.
3. [61219] Add paged results (lists that internally fault objects page by
page).
4. Testing
5. Docs improvements (I wish we had somebody with writing talents)
It is really tempting to make an Alpha 3 release will all the cool stuff
that we already have (
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/cayenne/cayenne/doc/release-notes/RELEASE-NOTES-1.0b1.txt?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
, esp. items 0, 6, 13, 24). I guess this is also an option....
Any opinions, votes on that?
