[Gwt-openlayers-devl] release 0.4 imminent

[Edwin C. <com...@gm...>]

Dear all,

We are closing in on releasing 0.4 if it's up to me...

-The Options class is now refactored out of the codebase, and I have create
XxxOptions for all Controls (most of 'em empty, but they will be filled with
methods in release 0.5). The handlers are also refactored, since the handler
classes seemed to be the only bit of code with a getJSClass method instead
of a create method. In the quest to make all methods as typesafe as
possible, DrawFeature now takes a Handler as argument instead of a JSObject.

-I started creating a User Reference and Developer Reference on the wiki,
which should have some minimal content for 0.4. I will also adjust the
website to point to these reference documents and to link to the API docs.

-The Mercurial repository is enabled and I have committed the first files
into the repository. I am disappointed about the Eclipse support for
Mercurial, but the commandline mercurial tool works very good, and it's not
complicated at all. I am already happy to have only one .hg directory with
the complete repo and history, which is very nice.

TO DO:
- Rename the package to 'org.gwtopenmaps.openlayers' and commit that to
Mercurial (I will also see if I can move the CVS history to Mercurial)

- Make a build (test maven and ant build scripts), test if it works, make a
0.4 tag in Mercurial and release the build

- Update the website

- Keep enhancing the documentation

- Make a roadmap for 0.5 :-)...

With kind regards,
Edwin
