  This list is not appropriate, go *...@xx.apache.org instead answers.
 If it's any consolation, I think most of it doesn't belong on any mailing 
 list.
Seems that I have been long absent from the ASF itself activities, and
during the days, so many has changed.

In order to remember back and know the changed one, I applied to
PRC membership, however, someone (guess who) put the obstacle
it seems.

Respects (Re: ApacheCon at ASIA)

2009-10-23 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

 Tetsuya, you have show the utmost lack of respect on this forum to the
 chairman of the organization, who in the most friendly and forgiving way
 attempted to nudge you away from inappropriate directions.  Noone else
 in this organization is so flexible.  So your complaint falls on deaf ears.

The Apache Software Fundation's rule - there is no relationships
between superior and inferior. I mean, hierarchy. (bureaucratism is
one of them)

Maybe I had been wrongly taken introduction by POI founder and
Cocoon/Forrest founder to the weird road from 2003. (oh, 6 years --- long way)
I have thought that merit will never disappear and it remain forever.
Over the threshold, you will have an invitation for membership of the
Apache Software Foundation as individual.

Thank you very much to Bill and #chair#, that IT was a wrong way
you told me clearly.

About the respect upon #chair#, I wrote clearly in PRC list and
private lists. I will not say again. Miscommunication.

Thank you very much. Mucho Gracias.

This is not an appropriate answer neither suggestion.
Apache Roller is just one of the options. Maybe I will use forever
movable type (It depends just on my server issue).
If so, Apache Roller user list is meaningless to me.

 The community list certainly is not the right place for this one. I
 suggest to ask on the Roller users list.

 The concom is currently planning an Apache road show in Beijing and
 Colombo for Nov/Dec this year.

 I'm not sure how widely this event has yet been publicised, at least
 [1] or [2] don't yet mention it.

 [1] http://www.apache.org/foundation/conferences.html
 [2] http://us.apachecon.com/c/

If in Beijing, Japanese and Korean can participate really
easily. (and we can understand Chinese characters).
# Plus, I am sure that there could be a lot of Sponsors there.
# Our language is very similar to Chinese. Samsung (Korea)
# etc. ... maybe? 

If Colombo, we can not. (Take so much money) - and the
Japanese company won't be the sponsors.



Hold in China , gather a lot of money and take the Sri Lankans
for free (in a sense) to China would be the wiser solution. maybe.

 Tetsuya,
 
 If you have contacts in any of these locations, I would encourage you  
 to subscribe to the concom mailing list and join the discussion there.  
 Venues for conferences, including Asia conferences, are being  
 discussed there. Also, there's a few years of accumulated knowledge of  
 what has and has not worked in Asia, including some attempts to hold  
 events in China.

 The proper mailing lists are concom@ and
 planners-2009-a...@apachecon.com.  If a committer wants to volunteer on
 a planning committee, we can add them to the planners list.

I see. what I could not join in was @apache.org
not @apachecon

 I see. what was open to only members was apa...@apache.org
 As already mentioned we're putting together an event in late November
 and early December in both Beijing and Colombo.  At this point, I
 believe the events are fairly well planned and we'll be getting info out
 to the public soon.  There's only a couple of people volunteering and
 everyone is very busy, so we're a little slow on getting it organized.

I willl participate the list above amd see the current problems
(Maybe can not so much problem)

Regisitration issue is just due to the announcements.
I can do it at local (Japanese large 4 + net news)
news papers, etc. in various ways.

 My suggestion is to attend one or both of the events later this year and
 see how it goes.  We can then look at your ideas for 2010.

I can not go to SriLanka. I have a virtual office at Mumbai now,
so going to Colombo itself would be no problem, though.

 Hi Tetsuya,
 
 Your last message came as three copies to community@ and you've been
 sending the same message to various other addresses too. A single
 message to a single list would be enough, more will just annoy people
 and may eventually get you kicked from the list.
 
 The PRC is tasked with the ASF sponsorship and fundraising activities,
 so you'll want to discuss the charity program you propose with
 p...@apache.org instead of various other mailing lists. Please do not
 post links to any payment forms or similar pages before you've reached
 an appropriate agreement with the PRC.

What  would you think to say to enroll to this as CHARITY NEED NPO.
In this method, we do not have to establish NPO in Japan (for apache
donations : as  tax deductive) and the money goes to ASF.

2009-10-03 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
Sorry

Google and Yahoo? 2008, 2009 renewal done it seems.
I am carefully looking the board meeting text. but somehow omitted



Plus,
The problem is/was ...

I have 9000 1st at linked in now. At first, I sent an invitation
to all the apache folks (Some rejected I don't know -- I can
not believe it. READ THE THANKS PAGE!!).
and Gradually my 1st grew up.

When I do the business in Linkedin, I message to specific
area (recently, ASEAN). And not-intentionally, there are apache
folks there. (Can you judge whether XX is apache committers or
not when sending to 1500 ppl in ASEAN?)
And 1 or 2 said that You invited me (as apache) bacause you
want to invite me to MLM business?? or some -- came as a message.

I carefully selecting (around 2004 committers' name I remember), however,
I can not do that at all. Those frustrations went to apa...@apache.org or
p...@apache.org and misunderstandings happened I might guess.


I think it would be loss for both.

Thank you for reading

And sorry, Jim

  Hi Tetsuya,
  
  With all due respect, but I think you are confusing donations with 
  investments. Donating does not give you any power to the donnor, it is 
  just thanking and helping some work to be done. For instance, if you 
  donnated to an NGO helping the poor people in Africa (or in Sri Lanka), you 
  would delegate your money to the NGO and not expect to tell to the NGO what 
  to do. You just rely on them. On the other side, if you bought shares for a 
  company (which is not the case of the ASF), you would be able to have your 
  say, at least for the percentage of actions that you own.
  
  About the gaming sites, in the Western world such sites normally have a bad 
  connotation and you normally don't want to mix something with a good name 
  (e.g. Apache) with that kind of gambling activities. I think that in the 
  Eastern world the perception of online gaming (or gaming in general) is 
  different and more open in a sense - not associated to corruption. That is 
  why people reacts so angrily with such proposals.
  
  As for saying that the foundation is poisoned. Well, that is a big word

Re: Temporary suspension of ASF Committer-related privileges

2009-10-01 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

I guess it is only american joke. ;)






 Tetsuya,
 
 We have taken a protective step and, for the time being, have
 disabled all privileges associated with being an ASF committer.
 This includes usage of the apache.org Email address, access to the
 people.apache.org site and SVN commit privs.
 
 All that we ask is that you comply with our wishes and stop
 using the Apache name and brand, and your association with it,
 in the manner in which we have described to you. If you need
 explicit examples and what is allowed and what is not, then
 please ask and we will provide that to you.
 
 We apologize for having had to take this action.

Re: I should have said this

2009-09-28 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
The only one thing I found out utterly is that the apache software
foundation is poisoned by Jim Jagielski and there could be no
curable way.

1. All the Sponsors who no pay should be deleted immediately from thanks.html
even though GOOGLE, YAHOO, MICROSOFT.
2. Jim Jagielski lied to me / us because We will make thanks.html page soon
in the PDF which I first saw -- and for 6 months nothing happened. - 3 
years ago iirc.

Anyways, board - (1) should be done first.



Plus, those who can gather companies outside from the United States,
go http://jakarta.jp/en
and buy. I will take care of it and donate to apache for those companies'
names - for sure (If they tell me so).

501(c) is for American Companies. Not Russian nor Chinese companies.
Tax Deductive - meaningless. Although there is this fact, I donated as the
first individual sponsor from JAPAN. http://an.to/asf
DO YOU UNDERSTAND, MEN?

Thanks

Tetsuya.


P.S. Normally, A donated to B -- 'B' does not be cared. The action itself 
would

Re: I should have said this

2009-09-24 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
Hi Henri,


 Are you trying to get money for Israeli children and Apache; or was it
 a comparison?

Both. Just showing what I am doing at the same time.

 This is looking like spam to people and they're very confused by what
 you're doing.

Plus, to be honest, apache id is under Israel - so both i wrote.

http://www.luckystars.asia/apache
http://www.luckystars.asia/israelhelp (a.k.a. http://an.to/israel )

http://www.luckystars.jp/apache
is my Terra-International, Inc. account. and I can do anything (pay via 
paypal after etc.)
on it. If people join the online game with affiliate referred by
apache, apache will get great money 
http://www.terra-intl.com/fact.zip   (FROM 150 EUR - 2300 in 70 days)



Anyways,
Apache will be able to gather money from Japanese companies etc.
easier than before.
Bronze Level would be soon appeared (because http://luckystars.jp/vip
is 5000USD or more)

Not related to the American NPO laws. It was not tax deductive it HAD BEEN.
If it can be tax deductive, 40% save. Very big. I made the seed of this.
Great thing don't you think? Just compare to car *** program.

Anyways, spam definition is ambiguous. I do not care about
that. Rather, please show the loveliness to apache immediately
 (from 50eur - http://luckystars.jp/50 )


Take care.

Alternative The Apache Software Foundation thanks.html system.




To ALL the Jewish persons: (And Company owners, CEO/President etc.)

Please help children in Israel: http://luckystars.jp/enroll/ -- if you
 use credit/paypal payments, it will be TAX DEDUCTIVE (Just
 Computer software license - ’ELEMENT4 INFO’ will be printed out)
 anywhere you are.
 If not use credit cards, referrer should be israelhelp 
 (http://www.israelhelp.org/ ~~~  http://an.to/israel ).
 And this is onlinegame with affiliate - you can earn so much money and
 help the Israel children similtaneously.

 Please help The Apache Software Foundation: http://luckystars.jp/enroll/ --

All are TAX deductive utterly wherever you are. (No need to be in

And under 18 you can not enroll, so please note that if you want to
pay as corporate (tax deductive / cost)  - birthdate should be the current
CEO/President's birthdate.

Apache will be able to gather money from Japanese companies etc.
easier than before.

 TITLE: Asian-Suuri Incubation Foundation  (For Gifted and Talented young 
 people TO FLY with WING)
 
 We would like to do the Establishment of Non Governmental and non-profit 
 Organization in the United States. (OR FOUNDATION)
 
 Plus, seeking those who have know-hows on the settlement of the private 
 operating foundation that is registered as a non-profit, charitable 
 organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.
 
 This means that, for individuals within the U.S., donations to the 
 foundation/NPO should be tax-deductible. (I know that the tax-deductible rate 
 lowered by the previous government, however, Obama will swich-back the policy 
 of it, I am sure)
 
 Settlement of #Asian-Suuri Incubation Foundation# and we can do not only 
 towards the solicit of charity for SUURI-NO-TSUBASA (Incubation of Flying 
 Giftted / Talented) but also do for establishing NEW seminar in all over 
 Asian region. -- including south-east Asia.

  By the way,
 
  Suuri-no-tsubasa (JAPAN) has 30 yrs long history and the most of the GOLD 
 MEDALISTS at Internation Mathematical Olympics (IMO) come from here.
  http://www.npo-tsubasa.jp/
  (DONATE PAYPAL: http://www.npo-tsubasa.jp/web?page=DonationPaypal) We have 
 NPO in Japan but no-tax-reductive for those living in the United States. SAD!
 
 Please seek Heisuke Hironaka at wikipedia and maybe you will find out. 
 (japanese version) He won the Fields Fields Prize in mathematics - the 
 first Japanese , iirc.
 We know the Cambodia, etc.'s Nippon Zaidan activities. Hope that many 
 talented can be take advantaged educations and influence to the poor soon in 
 the future.

 Like Apache.org
 
  What do you mean by 'settlement'?
  
  Is it a particular word for the non-profit world, or did you mean the

  VeriSign Class 2 is 700USD/page per year IIRC.
 
  All the members to have Class2 *for free* would be reasonable.
  Plus, donated committers (e.g. 100USD) to have Class2
  would be reasonable as well.
 
 Tetsuya,
 
 So can I clarify. Do you expect the ASF to pay for some 300 Class 2
 certificates from Verisign?
 Then some further 1800 or more committer certificates?
 
 That is a staggeringly expensive project to even consider.  Even if
 they were donated to the ASF, that would be another component of an
 already bustling infrastructure metropolis, we are just not geared up
 for that yet.  That's not to say we couldn't be, but at the moment we
 are not.

There could be one way:
Members and committers: by the request, they can get
(Members: free / Committers: 100 - 200 USD/yr)

The best way would be -- as needless to say -- recruiting
VeriSign as a Plutinum Sponsor :-)

I personally think that all the committers post to

I am no longer an individual sponsor (by

 AIUI the main problem is that there aren't (or weren't) any CA servers
 which did exactly what apache wanted.
 
 in general, apache tends to be use distributed trust models to avoid
 single points of failure. so, a CA would need to be secure and embody
 some of the same qualities.
 
 IIRC some folks started coding up a suitable application but i'm not
 sure why it never made it into use. a major use case was going to be
 managing client side certification for subversion access.
 
 AIUI infrastructure has been working hard implementing LDAP but that's
 just about completed. now might be a good time to ask them about the CA

  Yes, the PRC (Public Relations Committee) is basically in charge of most 
  of those areas on the broad scale.  Overall communication with the 
  public should be what the PRC manages, however we may not have always 
  formally taken charge of the various email lists and other topics.  The 
  areas that the PRC clearly owns, and how the PRC sets policy and goes 
  about using then is still being defined over time.
  
  Several other PRC members and ASF members have been thinking about how 
  we do outreach - how we, as an open source and software organization, 
  can more actively attract developers and educate the public and 
  businesses about open source best practices.  Here on prc@ is probably 
  the best place to work on those kinds of subjects.
  
  
   2. Please encourage the doap files to be created more. Plus, I
   suppose doap files should not be maintained by each PMC,

   #DOAP# repository would be OK. (all committers can edit) -- and

  One of the things I hoped to do over ApacheCon next week is to create 
  and update more project's DOAP files to ensure we have complete 
  coverage.  In many cases if we send a patch to the dev@ list for a 
  project, I expect they'll check it in for us.
  
  I disagree that the DOAP files should be in a central repository.  The 
  best place to create and store these is in the individual project 
  repositories, since the individual projects really need to be 
  responsible to keep them updated.  Part of the problem with poor 
  maintenance of the DOAP files is that projects don't realize how much of 
  a strategic value to the ASF overall they can be.
  
   3. I had thought that the announcements at annou...@apache.org how

 At that point, it's really up to the individual projects to do a better 
 job of writing their announcements.  We can't do the work for our PMCs - 
 we need to let them write them themselves.  We can just make the 
 guidelines as easy to read and find as possible.

Hi,


As for the project news (release news), you folks can
use apachenews.org (Unofficial resource, but I guess
it is very useful for the users/BIGfans of the apache products).
http://www.apachenews.org/
(Historically, this is the heir of the Jakarta News/ Apache News)

Now, this contains the information on each projects (as
far as projects provide the information in DOAP files
-- http://projects.apache.org/ ). Very user-friendly website,
which has more than 3-year-history, I believe.

You can post hot news topics (especially, alpha/beta-version
releases and incubation-release)
on your projects to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I know that annoucements upon stable release should go to
[EMAIL PROTECTED](ASF-wide annoucement list)

# I am planning to competitive upgrade from MovableType to
# Apache Roller ;) , BTW


Sincerely,


Tetsuya Kitahata,




 (Note that a draft of this message was posted to PRC@ before posting here.)
 
 In recent threads on the PRC list, a couple of items came up that
 might be worth bringing to the community for further discussion. These
 suggestion all require community participation, and so a key question
 is whether the community would participate :)
 
  * Extending people.apache.org with personal profiles
  * [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] email drops
  * A Roller zone for PMC blogs
 
 
 Extending people.apache.org with personal profiles
 
 It's been suggested that we circulate a press release regarding the
 election of the 2007-2008 board, and include some headshots and bios
 of present and past officers and board members on our board page.
 We've started to collect more information about the people involved in
 the foundation at http://people.apache.org, but the site is not well
 publicized. If we would like to post profiles of our board members,
 perhaps we would also like work toward providing personal profiles for
 all of our committers. If we added personal profiles to the
 people.apache.org site, and added the capability to create a page per
 ASF project or group, we might end up with Who we are pages for each
 project that looked something like the profile page here:
 http://women.debian.org/profiles/. For discussion purposes, I've
 posted an example of an ASF personal profile at
 http://people.apache.org/~husted/profile.html, cribbing from the
 Debian site. Again, the format is for discussion purposes only.
 
 Should we encourage a more personal touch to our who we are pages?
 
 
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] email drops
 
 A recurring PR problem is finding someone with product knowledge to
 contact that's willing to respond. Perhaps we should encourage all
 projects to setup individual press@ and security@ mail drops that
 could go to people within the project, who could then forward valid
 messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Of course, it makes no sense to setup a project
 press@ drop unless there are volunteers in the project willing to do
 the work. If a project were up to handle its own press@, we could also
 copy [EMAIL PROTECTED], so that there is some central oversight.
 
 Should we encourage per-project press@ and project@ mail drops?
 
 
 A Roller zone for PMC blogs
 
 One of the most popular blogging softwares on the planet, Roller, is
 now an ASF project http://rollerweblogger.org/project/. Perhaps it's
 time to eat our own dogfood and encourage development of a Roller zone
 where our PMC's can post easy-to-aggregate announcement blogs. These
 would not be individual blogs as we have on PlanetApache.org, but PMC
 blogs that would focus solely on project news. The initiative could be
 tied to http://projects.apache.org/, so that there was a one-stop
 shop for project news. Aside from Roller, another way to go would be
 an XML-based feed, like the one that's being used at Jakarta. As
 always, the tipping point would be whether we have volunteers up to
 doing the work.
 
 Should we encourage projects blogs to post and aggregate project news
 and events?
 
 
 If the community is interested in doing more to publicize the
 foundation's activities, I'm sure there are other things we could do
 as well. Of course, a key question is whether we want to raise our our
 profile or just be the quiet juggernaut.

Re: Page of mailing list data

2004-11-06 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

  Just looking for an easier way than querying the mail lists one at a time. 
  Every now and then we discover that a list is inadequately moderated and 
  so I'm trying to think of ways to maintain oversight there.
 The mailing list query responder works on regex patterns..
 I've moved this to http://www.apache.org/~coar/mlists.html

For example, annnounce @ a.o. has very nice spam filter
in order to prevent spam mails coming from non-apache.org address From:.
Perhaps, announcement @ j.a.o. (etc.) can implement such a function --
then most of the moderators would not get bored by a large quantity of
daily junks.
# This can and should be implemented to the most of
# [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] lists -- axiom. can you imagine
# cvs commit message from non-apache.org address?

There are perhaps inadequately moderated mailing lists in a.o.,
however, i believe it that you still can find better way to ease
the burdens of moderators so that they can moderate appropriately.
* share of knowledge *

Sincerely,

P.S. I noticed this very useful.

 That said, it would be nice to have some form of outward communication on

 to juggle, but nice for those of us out here on the fringe.
 
 One example is the massive spam improvements. The amount of spam coming
 into my moderator queues dived and I spent a little while wondering what
 was up with my email server :) Fortunately I listen to infrastructure and
 after a while someone mentioned that spamassassin was in place and taking
 care of much.
 
 Unsure what the best medium would be. A weekly 'infrastructure notes'
 email?

Henri,

thanks,

I can tell it that infrastructure@ is not `open list`.
# Guess it why. can you pick up infrastructure@

And, I've decide to unsubscribe there at the end of November 2003.
(I'd been fed up with the newsletter controversy, there -- at that time)
It's closed list.

What I suggest -- very simple. Yes, I can tell you that
the changes of the infrastructural issues would have been
discussed at [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (Could you please
*give* me the number of the subscribers, if you can -- au --
and the nice url for the reference of the infrastructural matters?)

However, most of the committers (800 people, IIRC) would not
have access to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wow ... really *high traffic*
list, if i remember correctly. --- not opened.
In such a situation, using [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be better
to notify the serious changes in the infrastructural issue.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is very nice list for such notifications of 
serious infrastructural issues. (Do believe it -- objections?)


Thanks in advance, Love guys,

 was triggered. Given that it is this early it was based on IP ?

 Dw

It seems not -- not IP based. simply it is blocking
/^Subject: =\?(ISO-2022-JP|koi8-r|euc_kr|big5|gb2312|)\?(B|Q)\?/io 
or something.
# We DO know what this would mean. Especially, those who

As Brian told us, it was based on the script what i suggested
in various ways -- it appears.

This pattern rejects all the e-mails written in
japanese/russian/korean/taiwanese/chinese
-- in Subject: header line.
(Please refer to RFP for MIME)

Most of spam mails in japanese/russian/korean/taiwanese/chinese
have MIME encoded subject header line. So, I thought it that
it would be nice to *spamwatch* mails in such pattern -- in
order to reduce the *burden*s of *.apache.org mailing list moderators
and perhaps most of the committers who are normally using latinized
languages --.
What I *suggested* was ... perl script for individual committers
not for *default settings in mail server*

--

 but ... it turned out that it could have choked my neck.
 apache.org server have come to REJECT my private mails ...
 since 28th May, 2004.

Of course, I can tell you that I would not complain if there
were some nice notifications and how-to documents there.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] list is very nice list for *notification*s
and *communication*s for such.

I do not think it that (Brian's) spamwatch perl script is not nice.
Rather, really nice it has been. -- I do believe it that apache.org
is tackling spamming issues in TOP Level (By the way, congratulations
spamassassin guys! -- TLP now!) and it deserves praise. 

Please let me know if you have troubles in multi-byte issues.

Dear folks @ community,

Hello.

One question came to my mind about the licensing issue.

Greg Stein wrote:

   - author tags are officially discouraged. these create difficulties in
 establishing the proper ownership and the protection of our

 around the use of author tags

I think it that perhaps we should pay much attentin to the licensing
issue upon websites in ***.apache.org, too (not sure .. correct me if
i am wrong)

I could see some XML files (e.g. files in site module) having
author tags (/document/properties/author)
which contained real person's names and e-mail addresses.

Should we also change these old customs ? I mean, usage of
real person's names in author tags should be discouraged ?

# e.g. (Preferable?)
# site module:
#  author email=apache.AT.apache.DOT.orgThe Apache Software 
Foundation/author
# jakarta-site2 module:
#  author email=general.AT.jakarta.DOT.apache.DOT.orgApache Jakarta

 stopped reading due to it's verbosity/noise...

I think it that Gump has a very weak Van der Waals force (^_^). 
Maybe it is due to the fact that the messages (naggings) from Jakarta Gump

 No, Incubation has nothing to do with pomp and circumstance.

Pomp? .. I do not think it is pomp.
What makes it pomp might be the intentions/hearts of the
interested parties.

I would like to see the cheerful/considerate incubation.

However,

 The Incubator's purpose is to ensure that projects coming into the ASF

   - are legally clean,
   - that their communities are healthy,
   - and that they follow basic ASF policies/procedures.

I agree with this, too. IMHO, the problem seems that
the last two purposes listed here can not be measured
in scientific way. Also, i am afraid it that 99% of the
participants in incubator would be not laywers.
How can you, non-laywers, judge whether XYZ project is legally
clean/safe or not, by the way? (Sorry for such a childish question)
... Incubator project PMC has at least three laywers?

Also,
I'd like to know why there could be a lot of far from beta
projects in incubator. (Really are they far from beta?)

I am happy to see the nurturing incubation process  projects,
which can be also suitable for
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Points/
http://www.w3.org/2003/06/Process-20030618/

From the stand point of the affinity to the other
apache.org projects ...:

I think it that it takes over a month. 

First  Step: Accredited ASF Sister Project (1)
Second Step: Incubated Project (2)
Third  Step: ASF Project (3)
... *maybe* this is good. (not sure) ...

I think it that XYZ project coming to apache can get affinity to
the other apache.org projects during (1) process/step. (1) would not
have to do with legal issues.

... This means that if we can put the release news (headline) at

I think other TLPs can make use of the Web-Semantecized

If we can not recognize the sameness and differentia, often we

I've come to realize that Apache was far from bureaucratism, because
the dynamism of the Apache has been derived from right-side cerebral
cortex (Global brain). What could be perceived bureaucratism
for me was *not* bureaucratism in this community.
Also, Community Thanks in the higher level of our activities --
will keep this community sane.

Community *thanks* and Community *responsibility*

2003-12-21 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hello!

Now I am exploring about our brains. :-)

left-side cerebral cortex (A) | right-side cerebral cortex (D)
--|---
left-side limbic system   (B) | right-side limbic system   (C)

(A) can be expressed as Calculation Brain
(B) can be expressed as Organization/Planning Brain
(C) can be expressed as Communication Brain
(D) can be expressed as Innovation/Integration Brain

(A) is opposed to (C) as well as (B) is opposed to (D).
The confrontation between (A) and (C) can be expressed as
the difference of men/women. (Just a difference of the preference of
thinking)

(B) brain often takes responsibilities of local organization
(and person). Also, (B) brain is highly related to sectionalism,
bureaucratism.
(Bureaucrats often create trifling works in order to maintain their
*local* organizations and keep their prides ;-)

On the other hand, (D) brain (as opposed to (B) brain) can also
take responsibilities, however, they would be rather global
responsibilites. I imagined these *responsibilities* can be highly
associated with community thanks.

When I became Apache Software Foundation Committer, I felt strangeness
of the messages Thanks/Sorry from some ASF members. I tried
to confirm what makes them say such words in particular situations.
Now, I do realize that this was Community thanks/Community sorry.
( = These *thanks* messages are derived from the WILL of our community)

Yes, I have come to realize and now feel these Community Thanks/Sorrys
very comfortable. Also, I can proudly say that Thanks, Apache. Maybe,
this is one of the most important factors by which Apache attracts a lot
of developers and users from all over the world.
Also, as I've read the bylaws of the ASF, this bylaws seems to have
affinity to these kinds of Community Thanks/Sorry/Responsibility
... really nice.

... What do you folks think?


P.S. (B) brain prefers closed communication, on the other
hand, (D) brain prefers open communication.

 If you find this poetic, you will no doubt enjoy the Cyberiad

 where a psychiatric for robots is described, with a hypochondriac robot 
 carrying a cart with spares.

Great! Thank you for the info.

To tell the truth, now I am thinking of our brains.
(I am calling myself as brain-net explorer .. :-)

Can robot (computer) have its EMOTIONs? etc...
# The answer would be NO.
So, I felt that description (robot.txt) very poetic and meaningful.

1. Current Computer is able to replace our left-side cerebral cortex
(Brain for calculation -- 1+1 = 2 styled calc)
2. Quantum Computer will be able to relace our right-side
cerebral cortex 
(Brain for innovation/imagination -- 2 = 1+1 styled calc)

Cerebral cortex is the part of our brain, which makes us human beings.
(Other animals can not count (calculate) because they do not need such
abilities in order to Conserve Species. Identification/Organization
and communication abilities would be enough for them to do it)
On the other hand, limbic system (left-side and right-side) is animals'
brain) ... I do not know / I can not imagine what will be able to
replace our limbic system.

So, How robot can recognize itself as robot is really interesting
issue for me. -- meaningful

Not have to. If the community (e.g. tomcat-dev) want it

 You shouldn't be.

Stefano, anyone can not stop their the emotional reactions.
Remember, that there are some people who think it really
guilty to make the others incriminated (without criminal charge)
by their actions.

 As you see, there are many sides all the time and it's really hard to 
 find a balance.

Agreed. 

  Calling the ASF beaurocratic shows only how low your ability to

  No, I did not declare. I am now talking about the
  *beaurocracy* with the people in japanese government.
  Most of my juniors (Kouhai) / seniors (Sempai) are

  That's it.
 Oh, then if I misinterpreted your comments. Sorry for that.

Okeydokey. Japanized bearocratic system is (IMO) very
interesting theme for those who want to make a study of
bureaucratism, organization, etc., I am sure.
Each components (government officials) are very genious
and elite. Really genious. However, they are inclined to be
rationalism and careerism. In Economics term (or maybe the
same goes for the conceptualized Supply Chain Management),
it can be explained by these:

Hi,


Thanx to RoUS (Ken), now I can get the precise
statistics of the number of the participants
of each mailing lists in apache.org. Really great job, RoUS!

Well, now:
Subscribers: 8316 - announce@apache.org: (as of 21st October)
IIRC, as of 17th July (3 months ago), we had
Subscribers: 7400 - announce@apache.org

This showed that we got extra (additional) 900 subscribers to
announce@apache.org list, ASF-Wide Announcement List,
in these 3 months!

I assume this extra (additional) 900 subscribers has already
known that they would receive over 40k mails (newsletter)
monthly or bi-monthly.

Furthermore, I got just ONE private mail which said
please unsubscribe me from announce@ in these 2 months.
-- ONLY 1 --.
(NOTE: previous mail contains Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED])

Great! Statistics proved that most of the participants
to announce@apache.org list were welcoming such a newsletter!

Now, I can declare PROUDLY, that
To those who do not want to receive over 40k mails: please
unsubscribe. Can't you see the procedure of how-to @ the
bottom of each mails?.
Furthermore, If you just want to get the news of httpd *ONLY*,

17770 subscribers to announce@httpd.apache.org might be

We, developers, tend to view the world by using only their

Nope. I have to resign. The difference of the e-mail culture. 
We, Japanese, do not complain about the volume of the
mails (especially when they are useful and informative)
and I am accustomed to that culture.

Someone like me (who have such a mind) should not have become
the editor of that newsletter. There could be often friction
and it will cause the balkanization of the e-mail culture.

The original intention of the newsletter was
Newsletter will be one of the *glue* of the communities in the ASF
umbrella, beyond the artificial boundaries of technical languages etc.
Hope this can gradually lead the good course of the ASF, avoiding the
balkanization of each projects and keep the hand tightly with various
projects.: cooperative collaboration space for all the contributors

... It seems that the newsletter itself is going to the contrary.

 Eh, there are many other reasonable ways to establish a chain of

 superior.
 
 Some combination of the following would be as hard to attack as
 pretending to be someone else in a personal meeting:
 
 I mostly know you as the guy who sends mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 You send me your key signature from that address; I respond with a
 token and you send the token back.  Maybe afterwards I wait a month
 or two and follow your use of that email address.  If you keep
 sending useful patches to similar things as you've done in the past,
 that's a good indication.
 
 We have postal addresses of ASF members on file.  Tokens and key
 signatures can be sent back and forth via postal mail.

Ahh. Maybe, the best way would be the establishment of the *trust chain*
between [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or equivalent one) and each
committers/members ... ?!

If there are volunteers (in the United States) who manage the KEYS of
each committers, it would be realistic and really make sense.

--

As far as postal address is concerned, the ASF already has all the 
*NEW* committers' real addresses , I guess (Since we had to
sign the singature to CLA and write real address, as far as
I could see).

I am not a member of the ASF, so I can not handle (no

 I know Pier and Brian have been known to travel to Japan (for
 pleasure and business).  I'm sure others go to Japan periodically.

I've heard that Pier will come to Japan in October. (I could not catch
up with him @ the last travel of his, in July, though)

Please feel free to ping me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list :)  all

 I rarely, if ever, see any ASF members any more.  Only at conferences
 and such.  We're a virtual organization.  The way you build
 relationships in this community is through interactions on mailing
 lists and contributions. There isn't any other way, really.  That's
 why ApacheCon is so crucial. 

Really understandable. Thank you for the detailed and comprehensible
explanations.

Now, I can completely understand why ApacheCon is very important for
not only the members but also for the committers. Probably,
this event would be more important for the current (and upcoming)
committers. I am now absolutely in favour (from my sincere heart)
of the success of the ApacheCON. Unfortunately, I will not be able
to participate in that wonderful event, however, please let me know
if there would be still rooms of the contribution to the success
of that event.

 And, why we need to have European AC's too.  -- justin

Make sense. Quite make sense.

One day, the Asian AC (Beijing or Seoul would
be better than Tokyo) will be held , too. I do hope.

--

As far as I can see from
http://www.apache.org/~sgala/map.html
(Apache Community Worldwide: thanx to Santiago and Dirk),
there are few committers in Asia, Pacific, South America
and Africa. Of course, there could be some of the ratio
of the well-educated population issues, etc. I can guess, however,
North America and Europe (heavily) weighed community
would be not so much healthy.

I am sure that establish a trust relationship would be
one of the KEYS of the internationalization 
in the ASF community.

I am awaiting any suggestions, constructive opinions for
the internationalization of the ASF and about how to
establish a trust relationship, from you all.


Out of respect for the ASF,

Regards,

  Dude,
  
  How are we supposed to read this?
  
  Sander 'a bit behind on his japanese'
 
 Testuya's original message is plain enough:
 
  MIME-Version: 1.0
  Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-2022-JP
  Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
 
 it's just that my Mailer, and apparently yours, choose not to deal with this
 charset. The text is readable enough if I 'view source'.
 
 Maybe Tetsuya should tweak the charset of his English-language mails. (:

No. The root of the evil was the original mail (From Joshua),
to tell the truth.

I am using US-ASCII by default settings and most of my mails
are encoded by US-ASCII. (You can check by grepping the mail archives)

Joshua's original mail: (Est (heure d'.. part (Date: HeaderLine)
trapped and transformed into japanese. (and garbled)
So, my mail client recognized that my mail was written in japanese
and had put 'charset=ISO-2022-JP' headerline.

Mails from those who always use special characters (umlaut etc.) 
would cause errors and troubles. However, I do not blame them 
as a matter of course.

 There are other ASF Committers in Japan.  Lief Mortenson, for example, the
 author of the Java Wrapper and frequent Avalon contributor.

Aha. I've forgot that!

Great! My friend is now in Tokyo (and english-native), so they
(JaVa-nese) can talk with each other!
