Spring Python 1.1.0.M1 Released

Filed under: news, releases — gregturn @ 2:15 pm

See http://www.springsource.org/node/2282 for the official announcement.

I chatted with Mark Pollack earlier this week and asked if we wouldn’t mind me taking over. He said no problem, and I was able to get keys later to push releases up to SpringSource’s S3 site.

This release is first milestone in our new 1.1 baseline. More features, improvements, and enhancements will be coming out with the next milestone, as we work towards getting this released.

I’m going to work for SpringSource

Starting January 11th, I’m going to be working for SpringSource. I told my daughter, Audrey, and look what she had to say!

I’m glad she approves.

No, they didn’t hire me to work on Spring Python. That is still in my spare time. Hopefully, I can become sponsor and not have to bug Mark Pollack.

Anyway, my first assignment will involve working on integration between tcServer and some of SpringSource’s management products. I can’t wait!

Welcome Sven Wilhelm!

I wanted to introduce another team member: Sven Wilhelm. We just granted him commit privileges this week. Sven has been using Spring Python as a core piece of his team’s system. He has been doing a bit of work on making Spring Python work with Jython (which I’m VERY interested in!), as well as working on a Spring Python Ldap module. With Sven on the team, we will be able to make these parts available to you as well.

Sven, thanks for joining the Spring Python team!

Welcome Dariusz Suchojad

I want to welcome our newest team member: Dariusz Suchojad. He has coded several patches in the past, including support for SQLServer. You will notice his name in the credits at the top of the reference docs (http://springpython.webfactional.com/1.1.x/reference/html/index.html). I submitted a request today that he be given commit rights to Spring Python’s code base.

He is working on some new Spring Python features as well. Dariusz, thanks for joining Spring Python!

Spring Python’s website gets a major upgrade

I recently upgraded Spring Python’s project page from being a statically generated maven-based website to a dynamic drupal-based CMS.
