One of the nice things about open source projects, though, is that there is no upper limit on how many people can participate, and also no end to the potential improvements and bugfixes that could be worked on. You can basically assume that all projects will always need resources :-). As to how to go about this with Apache projects, I would suggest starting with some reading on the Apache "getting involved" page: http://apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html which has links to more information about the various ways to contribute, starting from just using a product and giving feedback all the way through becoming a committer that gets to help decide the future direction of that project. Just be aware that, if committer is what you want to become, it can take a while -- but the more active you are in the earlier stages, in general, the less time it will take.

The decision was made (and I, as an Apache member, consider it to be in *my* best interest, as well as in the best interest of the ASF). It's done. It's over. It's now an off topic conversation for this list. If you guys had put the same amount of energy into your software that you put into your arguments, the world really would have been a better place as a result of your efforts.

I almost never use my apache.org address and I am getting spam. ... This is what i was intending to say. Not necessarily because of my use of the apache.org address, but because of spam via address harvesting and spoofing. It's just not that hard to figure out why and how. Go to Google and type in your email address and see what comes up. In the case of [EMAIL PROTECTED], 149 separate references come up. In Antonio's case, there are 15 hits to his name. The top hits in both cases come from marc.theaimsgroup.com. So long as the From: line in email mailing lists has a valid email address, there will be spam sent to that address. Sounds like a *contest* to me! :-) Can anyone (besides Stefano, who's in a class by himself :-) beat my 1,540 references for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"? And yes, I get to deal with several hundred spams per day on this address, above and beyond the spam I get because I'm moderating a couple of Apache mailing lists. One thing that users may not be aware of is that qmail allows them to use variants of their addresses - basically they can extend [EMAIL PROTECTED] with [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail to that address would be handled with a .qmail-anything file in your home dir on minotaur. You could decide to bitbucket that easily, if you were using e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] or something that clearly indicated the idea that it should be stripped out. That's a pretty clever idea. Unfortunately, it doesn't help if you actually respond to questions on our mailing lists, and therefore gets archived in the "collected addresses" lists of individual user mailboxes (which is where the virii get it). Beyond that, I don't think obfuscation would do anything at all to help; my experience with throwaway addresses tells me that the address collecting robot that can't read has been retired for a long time.
