Objective: spreading and dispatching news, interacting with the community. Currently 1400+ likes aka followers. See: https://www.facebook.com/apachestruts On G+, there is again an page voluntarily maintained by Struts PMC members, called Apache Struts. Objective: spreading and dispatching news, interacting with the community. Currently more than 3700 people are following. See: https://plus.google.com/+ApacheStruts/posts See also on G+: Apache Software Foundation, Apache TomEE The idea is to link this pages to our site just like we did with the twitter account in the branch (and other Apache projects do as well on their front page). So how is this supporting commercial enterprises? One could argue that we are using (free) services of commercial companies, yes. We do that all the time at Apache. I fail to see how this is promoting Twitter, Google or Facebook as companies. If 100 other companies came along and asked us to put links to their sites on our site, would we do it? If not, why not? Would we be selective, or add anyone who asked? If the former, what are the criteria? Why isn't LinkedIn in the same group as the special three we've chosen to advertise? Because we are free to chose our tools. If volunteers he want to maintain FB, G+ and Twitter and link to the accounts there, it is fine. It is a service to our users, because they can read news in the tools of their choice. If the project choses LinkedIn as another tool, we should link it as well. Criteria is: does the PMC want to use the tool? Yes - link. No - no link. Similar to maven: we use maven because we like it. If the Gradle team would ask us to support Gradle, what would we say? Ironically, the latter two are getting prominent ASF support since they are platinum sponsors: http://apache.org/foundation/thanks.html Sponsorship does *not* buy favours. That's very explicit. And that is also why there is a specific, foundation-central, and non-project-specific thank you page. I don't see what Sponsorship has something to do with our toolset. Linking to Struts related resources on Twitter, G+ or Facebook is as much of a support for commercial enterprises as linking to Struts Sourceforge is or Struts GitHub would be - free community resources offered and hosted free of charge by a commercial enterprise like SourceForge and GitHub. Once we've checked with our legal people, and this usage has been approved by them, I'll be fine with it. Until then, I'm very conscious that the ASF is legally a charity, and is subject to losing that status if we don't abide by the rules. So I would rather ask the question and get the official answer than discover that we were responsible for the ASF losing its status over an assumption we made. There was an e-mail from Simone Tripodi to the Board mailing list (11.01.2011). Shane Cucuru responded and it was very clear to me that projects are free to use the social media they want. We just need to take care on the branding, be able to let other PMC members access these tools and to make clear, if the channel does speak on the projects behalf or not. Maybe I don't get the issue right, but imho this whole discussion is just about one question: can we link to our Twitter/Facebook/G+ channel or not. And given the fact we are allowed to use these tools, why should we not be allowed to link to them?

Re: Edit Struts2 Wiki
2012/12/3 Ken McWilliams ken.mcwilli...@gmail.com: There are a few times I would like to update the struts2 wiki. There are a few pages that could stand for some non technical fixing (small language errors). I answer some struts2 questions on StackOverflow from time to time ( http://stackoverflow.com/users/514065/quaternion) and often cite the relevent org.apache.struts documentation where helpful. One annoyance that I would like to correct is the Evaluated field for all tags. Currently every field is false, I interpret the field to mean that the attribute is evaluated as an OGNL expression or not. It would be helpful for new users if this was correctly accounted for. This has been a nuisance for some time. When trying to edit the set tag ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/editpage.action?pageId=14256) I get a not permitted message. My confluence user name is Quaternion, real name Ken McWilliams. In short may please have edit rights to make trivial changes?

Re: Preferred Way to Inject Dependency in plugin
2012/11/30 Umesh Awasthi umeshawas...@gmail.com:
Hi All,
I am creating a plugin to enable JSR303 validation, idea is to provide a
generic interface and let user provide which bean Validator they want to
use be it Hibernate Bean Validator or Apache one or any other which follow
specifications.
I was thinking about what can be best way to inject that provider in my
plugin.
I checked how Spring's LocalValidatorFactoryBean
http://grepcode.com/file/repo1.maven.org/maven2/org.springframework/spring-context/3.0.0.RELEASE/org/springframework/validation/beanvalidation/LocalValidatorFactoryBean.javaClass
doing this, they have a default implementation but provide a way to let use
inject there own bean validation provider
private Class providerClass;
public void setProviderClass(Class? extends ValidationProvider
providerClass) {
this.providerClass = providerClass;
}
What can be possible and best way to achieve this?
I do not want to use any other external API to add extra dependency
You may create a custom interface (BeanValidationManagerProvider) with
default implementation base on Apache, this way your plugin will be
useable out of the box. User will always have an option to implement
their own class and provide desired dependency.

Hi all
Hi all, I just joined the party and new over here. Let me know how I can be of help, as its boring to sit idle :) . Cheers, Vineet
Re: Preferred Way to Inject Dependency in plugin
Thanks for the inputs
I have this BeanValidationManagerProvider interface with a method public
Validator getValidator() which will return Validator based on the actual
provider.
Any Bean Validator in reference to JSR303 will implement
javax.validation.Validator
So in my BeanValidationManagerProvider Impl class i was thinking to
providing a way to let user inject actual provider with this setter method
protected Class providerClass;
public void setProviderClass( Class? extends ValidationProvider
providerClass)
{
this.providerClass = providerClass;
}
and than i will be able to get Validator by a simple call
Validation.byProvider(this.providerClass).configure().buildValidatorFactory();
May be i am wrong in my process, but i was wondering how best we can let
user decide which provider they want to inject
Thanks
