AGENDA

  1. LDAPocalypse Now


Attendees:


Brent

  • Per Scott request, looking at the Spring MVC Velocity deprecation issue.  Various questions:
    • What should be replacement (essentially and mostly: FreeMarker vs ThymeLeaf)?  Or maybe option for both?
    • Replace Velocity everywhere or just Spring MVC usage?
    • (radical) Join or start the "Save Velocity!" train: get Spring MVC support added to Velocity Tools.  Somebody may eventually do it.  Maybe that's us?


Daniel


Ian

  • Been defocused for the last couple of months for various reasons I won't get into, but should be back and more active now.
  • Main activity is the push to Java 11. Will hold off making the actual change as long as possible, so that the java-parent-project master branch uses Java 8 as long as possible.
  • What are known blockers, if any, in our code for a Java 11 transition? Or is it solely the tooling?
  • Will use the MDA, as usual, as the canary for the transition when it comes.

Marvin


Phil

  • Progressing IDP-1393
  • Looking at Globus Auth as an OP. 

Rod

  • 3.4.3
  • Some rationalization in JIRA
  • Keeping track with changes
  • NOTE
    • I'll be travelling during the call and on a train.  I'll connect in as much as I can but even if I'm in the meeting I'll be silent.  Apologies.


Scott

  • Fixed an SP macport issue
    • C++ modernization issue, might be dated to last OS X version or Xcode tools bump
    • Nobody reported it for weeks, implying to me we should be looking at dropping OS X support, officially speaking at least
  • Started removed some dead features not involving large code changes
  • Migrated "internal" AES-GCM calls to JCE
  • IDP-1390 - Getting issue details... STATUS
    • Ended up with a less hacky version of my "reloadable" Spring scope, a Managed Bean service for user-defined reloadable beans

Tom

  • JPAR-102 - Getting issue details... STATUS
    • New plan for "pin/key map" : fingerprint|checksum artifact-coordinate-pattern
      • Use checksum rather than PGP fingerprint when unsigned or bad signature
      • Use fingerprint rather than key ID because there could be collisions
      • Should we use wildcards/patterns in the artifact-coordinate-pattern ?
        • Yes for our artifacts
        • Maybe for other artifacts (like Spring)
      • Append to "pin" list or remove no longer used map entries ?
    • IdP 3.4.3 has 1150 artifact dependencies in the stack (including Maven plugins)
      • 250 are unsigned (22 %)
      • 3 have bad signatures (org.apache.struts:struts-taglib|core|tiles:pom:1.3.8)
      • no weak (as defined by the pgpverify plugin) signatures
      • The count of 1150 includes POMs
    • Need Jenkins to sign SNAPSHOTs (since checksums will change)
    • INFRA-196 - Getting issue details... STATUS  Initial install of Nexus NXRM 3 to take a look at capabilities
      • Should we proxy Maven Central ? (probably, so we can discontinue use of it directly)
    • Some links :
