GPars Roadmap

[Russel Winder]

As far as I am aware Groovy 1.x is in maintenance mode only. It is
intended to release 1.3.0 as soon as it is possible to release first a
snapshot and then a release via Artifactory/Bintray. Some progress was
made on this at the Gr8Conf 2105 Hackergarten, but I am not sure a
snapshot release is yet possible to act as a release candidate.

Groovy 2.x is JDK8-only: all the ParallelArray (extra166y) bits have
been ripped out, to be replaced with use of Streams. The idea is
preserve the best bits of the 1.x API, but to delete as much as
possible. Streams are after all usable directly from Groovy so GPars
only needs to provide the actors, dataflow, CSP, etc., not any of the
data parallel stuff. Actually the actors, dataflow, etc. is the bulk of
GPars, so in a sense we are doing a small prune, even if it is a big
change wrt data parallelism.

Currently there is a jdk8 branch in the repository for the 2.x work.

If anyone wants to chip in effort, the current issue is to find Stream
-based implementations for as many of the data parallel methods as
possible. Currently most of these return null, which means the tests
will not pass!

Shouldn't some Groovy mentions in your email be replaced by GPars mentions? :-)

Definitely. However as you are the only person to comment I suspect you
are the only person to have read the email.

What we need is a company or two to need to fund a bit of work on
GPars, by putting people onto it's development if not actual money for
contracts.

Well I did was it but didn't comment because uh I was very confused. :)

btw, can we change the setting so the default reply is to the group instead of to the individual?

Thanks

It already does that for me, is this a email client thing?

/Groovy \([12]\).x/s//GPars \1.x/g

Should probably make it more sane. Sorry for being so sloppy in proof
-reading the post.

I'm reading the list using gmail. so in gmail, if I hit reply, it goes to the poster, not the list.​

[Russel Winder]

I think that will be a bug in GMail then. There is very definitely a
Sender: field in the email headers.

[Jorge Franco]

Any and all constructive contributions will be most welcome, especially
pull requests that move things forward.

Due to other commitments I won't be able to do much on this myself in
the next couple of months, but I'll try and process issues and pull
requests as promptly as I can.
