Just how bleeding edge should JRoller be?

Lance has been working on improving Roller's plugin support. He also committed some fixes to Roller's RSS 0.91 support. I've also been working on refactoring and enhancing Rollers bookmark management. We been making changes, so now I have to decide what to deploy next to JRoller. Should I support JRoller through a nice safe 0.9.8 branch, or should JRoller stay in the main branch which is now considered to be 0.99-dev? The JavaLobby guys said they want to be on the bleeding edge of Roller development, so perhaps 0.99-dev is the way to go.

ADO like JDO.

Paul Gielens blogs about Microsoft's new O/R mapping solution, named ObjectSpaces. Comments include a link to an ASP Alliance article on ADO.NET v2.0: ObjectSpaces.  Who is going to bother with NHibernate now?

Windows to get a shell.

Jason Nadal blogs about Microsoft's new command line shell, code-named Monad. Like Longhorn, the new shell is years away, but it does sound very cool. Thomas Lee's post MSH Rocks provides some more details:

Thomas Lee: MSH takes the incredible power of the pipelined cmdlet approach of Unix, but instead of passing raw text, MSH sends NET Managed objects between cmdlets. That's right, objects, not raw text. Managed, typesafe, and easy to write/extend .NET Managed objects!

Belated OSCache 2.0 news.

How did I miss the OSCache 2.0 release?
