Discussion area for what enhancements to put into future releases.

If you are not a JMeter committer, feel free to add comments, but please don't reorganise the release plan.

Possible enhancements

This section is for listing possible enhancements. Describe them briefly. If necessary add bug ids (or links) to clarify.

• JDBC connection pooling - possible enhancements
  • Add option to use a single connection per-thread (e.g. if Pool Max=0)
  • or remove pooling altogether? - does it make sense to share connections between threads, which are supposed to be independent users?
  • use Apache DBCP instead of Excalibur?
• XPath Extractor - add user-declared namespaces
• Rework HTTP GUI to make it easier to use and extend
• JDBC IN/OUT/INOUT parameters
• JDBC NULL input parameters
  

Non-functional improvements

This section is for non-functional changes, e.g. code re-organisation etc.

• Use Java 1.5 for building, but only require 1.4 for running. Is this easy to do? Can it be done in Eclipse?
  

Release strategy

Only JMeter committers should change this section, though others may comment.

This is about to be released. No further enhancements will be added.
