== Candidate layers above current IdAS API ==
+
== SVN Branch Structure ==
This section describes several sets of functionality that could be layered over the current IdAS API.  
+
Existing:
 +
* Trunk  -- ongoing development
 +
* M0-8  -- at the end 1.0M8
 +
* B1-0M9 -- at the end of 1.0M9
 +
* B1-0-0 -- Higgins 1.0.0 release (2008-2-21) [Branch off of trunk]
 +
Planned:
 +
* T1-0-1 ---- Higgins 1.0.1 release [Tagged version on B1-0-0 branch]
 +
* T1-0-2 ---- Higgins 1.0.2 release [Tagged version on B1-0-0 branch]
 +
* B1-1M1 ---- Higgins 1.1M1 [Branch off of trunk]
 +
* B1-1M2 ---- Higgins 1.2M2 [Branch off of trunk]
  
=== Web service endpoint===
+
Graphically:
As discussed in the previous Austin F2F in October 2007, the Higgins project has decided that an IdAS web service is in scope for the future of Higgins. Parity will be developing and contributing an XDI binding.

=== Cache ===
+
== Higgins 1.0.X ==
To greatly enhance the performance of IdAS in situations where the underlying [[Context Provider]]s do not support caching and indexing on their own, and especially those that maintain connections to remote data sources, an generic caching/indexing layer could be useful.  
+
This section describes the 1.0 release and planned follow-on bugfix releases.
 +
=== Higgins 1.0 ===
 +
* 1.0 was released on February 21, 2008
 +
* The '''B-1-0-0''' branch was created for this release
  
=== Deep Search and Access ===
+
=== Higgins 1.0.1 ===
Although the Higgins data model supports [[Subject Relation]]s as first-class objects, IdAS in Higgins 1.0 treats them shallowly. For example, a search (e.g. using an IdAS Filter) treats [[Subject Relation]]s no differently from other attributes. Many use-cases (esp. cross-contextual use cases) would expect that these links would be recursively traversed to N levels, with cycle detection, etc. and the attributes merged roughly analogous to inheritance.
+
* This will be the first bugfix release of Higgins 1.0
 +
* Date: 5-April-08
