Bei diesem von Google finanzierten Programmier-Wettbewerb ergänzen die Entwickler von drei Open Source Projekten in einem etoy.CONTAINER während 24 Stunden ihr Projekt um eine bestimmte Funktion. Damit soll sowohl dessen Weiterentwicklung gefördert als auch das Verständnis in der Öffentlichkeit über den Open Source Entwicklungsprozess verstärkt werden. In der ersten Phase, die jetzt gestartet wurde, können Entwickler, aber auch Anwender von Open Source Software ihre Wünsche für neue Programm-Features in ihrer bevorzugten Open Source Software einreichen. Mitglieder der prominenten Hackontest-Jury, die 8500 Dollar Preisgelder vergibt, sind unter anderem Jeremy Alison (Gründer von Samba), Bruce Perens (Gründer der Open Source Initiative OSI), Alexander Limi (Initiator Content Management System Plone), Harald Welte (OpenMoko-Entwickler und Initiator gpl-violations.org) und Jono Bacon (Koordinator Ubuntu Community). http://www.hackontest.org 4. CH Open Source Award 2008 * Als weitere Initiative des Jahr der Informatik 2008 vergibt die /ch/open den CH Open Source Award, um die Entwicklung und Nutzung von Open Source Software in der Schweiz zu fördern. Die Auszeichnung wird in insgesamt fünf Kategorien vergeben, die gesamte Preissumme beträgt 10'000 Franken. Eine Jury aus OSS-Dienstleistern, Experten und Fachverbänden wird die Preisträger küren. Teilnahmeberechtigt sind Personen, Firmen und Organisationen aus der Schweiz, die OSS einsetzen und fördern. Awards werden an Entwickler, Firmen und Einzelpersonen vergeben: http://www.ossaward.ch 5. OSS Weiterbildungstagung am 24. Mai 2008 *** Wie und wo wird Freie Software und offenes Wissen im Alltag eingesetzt? Wie erhält man Support für Open Source Software und welche rechtlichen Aspekte gilt es zu berücksichtigen? Antworten auf diese Fragen stehen an der 2. OSS-Weiterbildungstagung in Fachreferaten, Fallbeispielen und Workshops im Zentrum. Unter anderem referiert Marcus Dapp, ETH Zürich, wie man mit Open Source Communities kommuniziert und Hilfe bekommen kann. Nando Stöcklin von der PH Bern erläutert die Chancen und Herausforderungen von Wikipedia für Schulen. Und Anwalt Dr. Christian Laux erklärt die Grundlagen der unterschiedlichen Open Source Lizenzen.

It would be great to see more Apache projects represented there, either with a small booth or with a presentation. I'm sure it's also a good opportunity for potential sponsors operating in the D/A/CH area. Please spread the word! Thanks! I'd be interested in participating. Should we just throw CfPs at them or should we coordinate Apache CfPs beforehand? :-) Coincidently, I ran into the CfP of German openexpo.de (ends April 30th) some days ago. This event seems to be related to the swiss one. I think the ASF should represent there, too!

Moving ( looking for a job)
Hi, some of you have already heard about it, this is to make it 'official': I'm doing the faithful duty of a good husband and will follow my wife who starts a new job in Palo Alto, California. So we will be moving there in the next months. As she is a smart person and I am not, I am looking for anyone that wants to hire a software architect / engineer with experience on the J2EE and Linux/Unix platforms and strong roots in the open source community. You must be willing to help me through either the H-1B or O-1 visa process. If you are interested, just ping me. I will be both at ApacheCon US and Asia if you want to talk to me F2F. Any hints on what to look out for when moving to the Bay area are gladly accepted. We already got warned about house prices. :-) Best regards Henning -- Dipl.-Inf. (Univ.) Henning P.

Is CVS no longer accessible in any way?
Hi, (I was thinking about sending this to infrastructure@ but this might be of interest outside the infrastructure group, so I send this to community@) attached is a mail that I got a few days ago. It is a quite innocent (and actually a very good) question, that I cannot answer. For those of you that are not that much involved in the Jakarta and particularly in the Turbine world: Turbine-3 is sort of an experimental/advanced branch off the regular development tree that is probably used only in Scarab, which is an issue tracker written by some Turbine people @ tigris.org. Turbine-3 never saw an official release and is considered dead by the main Turbine developers. This is important to know, because for that reason, this tree was never brought forward to Subversion. And now CVS and public CVS access is gone. The sources themselves are still on minotaur (/x1/home/cvs/jakarta-turbine-3) but I can see no way to access them any longer from the outside. That sucks. I'm pretty sure that this is not the only part of the CVS tree that was not brought forward to Subversion. There is old code, obsolete code, code referenced in books, manuals, wikis, blogs and almost everywhere else, that somehow points to the old CVS repository. I know that for the sake of progress, CVS is gone for good. However, it might be a good thing to have a documented (I searched a bit on the www.apache.org/dev/ pages and aside from CVS has been retired, there is not much information) way to tell our users how to get the old stuff. Maybe we could set up a read-only CVS through archive.apache.org? We lost quite a bit of code in the java.apache.org - jakarta transition (e.g. I was never able to recover any Turbine code prior to 2.1 and the transition to Jakarta). IMHO we shouldn't make that mistake again. It is a good thing that CVS is no longer in active use for new code and projects. However, CVS is a vital part of our code history and some people do need access to that history. Just wiping it out is IMHO not a good thing to do.

Messages like this are IMHO the main reason, why Avalon failed. Stephen, you should understand, that community always means compromise. You didn't seem to be able to accept that. In the end, these tensions lead to the end of Avalon. Story is over, no need to kick a dead horse. One of the good things about ASF code _is_, that you can take it somewhere else and go on with it.

I'm sorry - but you will have to exclude myself from the above endorsement. The Avalon community established a PMC to represent the community interests concerning the direction and administration of the Avalon project. The community interests were clear - a single platform, one specification, a cohesive solution. That decision was not respected by the outgoing chair nor the board of directors of the ASF. That is not the definition of a job-well-done. Instead this is much more about the weakness of individuals - in particular the members of the board of directors of the ASF and not least of all our outgoing chain. However - there is much that can be learnt from this. The weaknesses of the BOD can be attributed to their collective unwillingness to confront members of their own board. The weakness of our Chair was more a question of his personal loyalty to the community. Irrespective of the above obstacles a real and tangible alternative to ASF continues under http://www.dpml.net.

Therefore, you have one other option involving SSH, but allowing you to use your local mail client. Minotaur.apache.org is configured to allow SMTP relaying via the localhost interface. So what you do is set up an SSH tunnel that connects your own localhost port X (X can be any value above 1024) to minotaur's localhost port 25; then in your mail client configuration, you set your SMTP server to be localhost, port X. When you send a message, your mail client will connect to localhost:X, relayed over your SSH connection to localhost:25 on minotaur. I do this, though not with apache.org's server. In a similar way, you can use the POP service that runs on minotaur's localhost interface. Tunnel to localhost:110.

We also started to collect the locations of the interested people (see CVS:committers/docs/de-meeting) but somehow other tasks got a higher priority on my todo list and it seems that nobody else cared to track this down any further. Now, as it is pretty clear that there will be no ApacheCon this year here in Europe, I'd like to pick up the thread another time and suggest a meeting at this years [1]LinuxTag in Karlsruhe (10. - 13. July). According to the organizing association, LinuxTag is Europe's Number 1 Event for Linux, Open-Source and Free Software. It is accompanied by a conference/congress with plenty of [2]lectures, workshops and even a 'coding [3]marathon'. And the best of all: it's [4]free! Just a [5]preregisteration is required... Okay, while looking at the list of all the interested people and their locations it appeared to me that Karlsruhe is probably one of the most central locations we can get: it's a bit nearer to the north of Germany than Munich (which was initially proposed the last time) and it's also reachable for people from Switzerland and Austria. Another interesting point is the possibility to get one of two rooms reserved for open source developers and their projects. I'm willing to try to get in touch with the right people @ LinuxTag if there is enough interest for a meeting. Note, that there are also some ASF related speakers at LinuxTag including Ken Coar, Rasmus Lerdorf and Christian Egli from Lenya, a Cocoon subproject currently under incubation (schedule and links see below). Perhaps they are also interested and can spend some time on a meeting/party... Ken, Rasmus, Christian? Anyone around here? Well, if there is enough interest for this little happening we should decide some things as soon as possible; the time is short, I know: - who: are there enough people to organize something? - when: possible dates are 10. - 13. July ? - where: can we get a room? party location at evening? wasn't there somebody from Karlsruhe around last time? Okay, I'd also like to ping committers@ to ensure that we get the most possible visibility. So, that's it for now... open for discussion... opinions... ? Cheers, Erik BTW, I'll be there at 12.

The wiki theory is that it is so easy to repair vandalism that the immature cretins basically lose interest in their juvenile activities. For more discourse on the subject, see: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?SocialAcceptabilityOfWikiVandalism Hi, while I basically agree with you on the Wiki point of view, the question (at least to me) remains, whether the Apache Wiki is an experiment in communication or a tool for documentation. Imagine someone trying to demonstrate the power of the community supporting an Apache project in public by showing that there is a community supported Wiki site with contains many answers. Imagine that someone calling up the page while doing a presentation in public... Imagine a developer sending a potential user or developer to the Wiki for more information. Imagine someone competing with an Community based Apache project, knowing that there is an important/interesting talk or presentation about it and changing the wiki contents before or during (!) the talk.

RE: Apache Wiki defaced
If you don't have any PKI infrastructure yet and just aim for a give me some certificates approach that doesn't really need to have strong security needs, you might want to check out TinyCA (http://tinyca.sm-zone.net/) which is a really nice, easy to use and handy CA tool. It needs OpenSSL and perl-Tk. I use it for all my self-rolled certificates all the time. It is really only one program which acts as a wrapper around openssl.

Noel - if you need a hand with the cert creation/download/etc. code - do let me know; I'd be happy to donate some time and code which is otherwise just gatehring bitrot.

Re: How BSD hurts OpenSource
Uhh, Licensing discussion breaks out on [EMAIL PROTECTED] Film at Eleven. Everything in this article is old news, rehashed many times to death in public places like LKML or /. There is not a single new word in it. So please let it rest. It is IMHO freedom when every software author can choose the license that he wants for the code that he wrote. If people want GPL, fine. If they want BSD, fine with me, too. If they want to make money from their closed source stuff, well, go ahead. We all must eat. Put please keep this out of lists like this. I'd say that most people are sick and tired to hear the same old arguments rehashed over and over again by people with too much emotions and ideology and no idea that all their arguments have been discussed over and over again since at least ten years. I'm still waiting for the day when anyone will throw a _new_ angle into this discussion. The last somewhat new angle that I percepted was the table dancing license from Microsoft AKA shared source (You can watch it but you must not touch it. Unless you bring a big wad of cash).

From the other side of things, GPL'ed libraries have also been a Free Software Business success story (for example: sleepycat, Qt). Nah. Sleepycat is BSD-like. The key to success here (just as with e.g. MySQL) is dual-licensing which is something you can do if you have some sort of organization that holds the sole copyright of a work. This isn't very practical if you have e.g. the Linux Kernel with hundreds of copyright owners. If you really want an in-depth view on the compatibilities of the various licensing models, look at the Linux kernel module loader and the tainting mechanism of the kernel depending on the license of a module. If you feel sick now, stick with another OS. ;-) Regards Henning -- Dipl.-Inf. (Univ.) Henning P.
