I have briefly tested the windows demo (sakai-demo-2.6.1.zip) and bin (sakai-bin-2.6.1.zip against mysql) artifacts.

I have the improved conversion script for oracle tested and about to be checked in soon, it runs about 10 times faster than the existing script and is safer to run in production because of fewer locked rows. (15 minutes on 100K rows compared to the current script which is about 2 hours for all of the languages)

I'm working on the same pattern for the mysql script and just need to test it. These will either by committed sometime during the college football games tomorrow or later tonight.

I have generated the Sakai 2.6.1 release artifacts (demo, bin, src), updated the maven2 repo with 2.6.1 artifacts and cut a 2.6.1 release tag.  A bit of paperwork remains (Jira, release documentation, update a couple of public-facing pages in Confluence and sakaiproject.org<http://sakaiproject.org>) but the release I believe is ready for public consumption.

I would appreciate it if my Sakai comrades would grab the release artifacts,  try them out and report back their findings.  I have tested the 2.6.1 release tag and sakai-demo-2.6.1.tar.gz<http://source.sakaiproject.org/release/2.6.1/artifacts/sakai-demo-2.6.1.tar.gz> and sakai-bin-2.6.1.tgz<http://source.sakaiproject.org/release/2.6.1/artifacts/sakai-bin-2.6.1.tgz> artifacts.  They all come alive in Tomcat.   I'd like the entire set of artifacts tested by others to ensure that they work.

ARTIFACTS
Default release page (artifacts here): http://source.sakaiproject.org/release/2s.6.1/

TAG
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/sakai/tags/sakai-2.6.1/

ADDRESSED ISSUES
Note: the couple of "unresolved" issues are paperwork items and/or require a 2.6.x merge

2.6.1 http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK/fixforversion/11484
K1 1.0.12

KNOWN ISSUES

SAK-17219: Conversion script for 2.6.1 is slow to run on large assignment data sets and should be improved

Matt Jones reports that the "conversion for 2.6.1 on the assignment_content table is inefficient, potentially locks tables and does too many scans, especially if there are hundreds of thousands of rows. I've rewritten it to be more efficient but this might not make the 2.6.1 release."

I will add links to the updated conversion scripts to the 2.6.1 release page, Confluence 2.6 documentation, etc. when Matt commits his changes to trunk and merges to 2.6.x.

RELEASE DATE

Friday, 15 October 2009

Cheers,

Anthony
