Questions about sandbox, and release

[jpoley]

how easy would it be to use some features out of the sandbox (JMX) with the core 1.1.1 release? how would this be done? could a spring-jmx.jar be made?

and is there an estimated timeframe for 1.1.2 and 1.2 rc1 ?

I am particulary interested in JMX + dynamic refreshing of appContext, both important features (IMHO) due in 1.2?

thanks in advance,

1.1.2 is currently scheduled for November 15.

1.2 RC1 should be December, with 1.2 final early 2005. RC1 should include JMX. Dynamic refresh is not quite as advanced, but should probably still make RC1.

I think JMX could be used along with 1.1 now. However, of course we can't commit to backward compatibility with anything in the sandbox--things may change.
