 3. 24h-Programmiermarathon «Hackontest» lanciert
 *
 Die /ch/open lanciert im Rahmen des Jahr der Informatik 2008 den ersten
 internationalen Hackontest. 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).

   three people from three different Apache projects. Mine was the only
   presentation on an Apache project. I'm not sure we can come up with
   enough proposals for a full Apache track but we can certainly try. So I
   decided to forward the CfP here to reach a larger audience inside the
   ASF. 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! (And if the organizers are
  hard/sym-linked with each other, we can test run for Winterthur (very
  nice city!). My intention was to submit a talk about the ASF in general
  there.
  
  BTW, what about an ASF booth at both events? The ASF should be more
  visible at events like these! This is a [EMAIL PROTECTED] thing, right?
 
 yes it's good to keep them informed but PRC is a closed list with
 limited subscription. IMHO subjects like this are best discussed in
 public. 
 
 IMHO apache is now big enough to start creating a voluntary list of
 committers who are willing to represent apache on a per country basis.
 maybe people.apache.org could help...

Moving ( looking for a job)

2007-10-08 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
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

Re: Apache license headers

Very nice! I love the compactness and readability of Ruby (no joke!).

If you are interested in a more overengineered solution to that problem, 
there is CodeWrestler at 
http://henning.schmiedehausen.org/eyewiki/Wiki.jsp?page=CodeWrestler 
Especially the license.ReLicense and license.CheckLicense modules.


I use this tool on the projects that I work on and e.g. the last 
Velocity Release got its license headers 'codewrestled'... :-)

Hi,

I've just written a small Ruby script to check whether all your files 
have the Apache license headers and optionally add them where they're 
missing. It's as simple as:


   ruby check_license_headers.rb # list files with no header
   ruby check_license_headers.rb add  # add headers automatically

It scans for 'java', 'xml', 'bpel', 'wsdl', 'c' and 'cpp' files but it's 
rather easy to add more files type. Might not be bullet proof but it 
worked well enough for me. Thought I'd just post it here in case someone 
else finds it useful.

Is CVS no longer accessible in any way?

2006-02-26 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
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.

Best regards
Henning

 Now, hasn't their been licensing disputes from (L)GPL camps, IIRC JBoss??
 Where they were accusing the ASF of breach of licensing.
 Can't ASF pay back with the same coins, referring to their own authority

 about that the licensing is incompatible...
 So, Mr Fleury, please drop the following from your distribution (incl 
 non-apache);
 
  * log4j
  * tomcat
  * jetty
  * beanshell
  * jasper
  * hsqldb
  * mx4j

It's not for us to decide for projectx whether they deem ASF-2.0
licensed software to be incompatible with their (L)GPL'ed code or not.
The people that release ASF 2.0 licensed software don't need to care
about this, because the problem is not the ASF 2.0 license but another
(in this case (L)GPL) which states that the result must be licensed
again under this other license (in this case (L)GPL. 

In other words: The ASF IMHO does not need to care. Because the ASF 2.0
is not violated.

 In my opinion (and people here knows I'm the kind who confronts, that's no 
 secret) throw that at JBoss + FSF and see the reaction. Nice Christmas 
 present.

If this gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling all over, go ahead and tell
them...

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. 

Good luck with Metro/Merlin. But now, please let the dead rest.

 I'm sorry - but you will have to exclude myself from the above

 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.  The fundamental difference -
 no distinction between the people who contribute and the people who run
 the process.

 @apache.org branding. I am still learning that way but I know that we
 are not a marketing place. If they not abusing their powers they are
 welcome to help building a good community and good code.
 
 I hope that we can make some rules in Apache to prevent that to happen.
 I think a abuse of e.g. mentor powers should be punished by a ban! I
 think we do not want that to happen here. So we should make sure that is
 not!
 
 How can we make sure that this will not happen in the ASF?
 
 WDYT?

 I am sure that the upper-tier of ASF would shiver at the thought that hordes

 the same arguments of why Wiki won't work. But it does. Why? Because *most* 
 people *want* it to work.

But the few that don't will spoil the show. We had our share of Wiki
defacement. With a wiki, that is easily corrected because all pages are
in _one_ place. If you have code defacement (consider a malicious third
party put a backdoor into the httpd stable branch) and anyone checks out
code from the CVS with this backdoor, your project reputation is toast
(/. reports a that a backdoor in widely distributed web server has been
found. Film at eleven).

 
 Can it work on code? _I_ am absolutely certain, but I never expect that the 

Sorry Niclas, but in the last few weeks I've read quite a number of
postings of you on the Avalon and general apache lists, that suggest
that you either live in a dream world where everyone is everyone elses'
friend or that you have no clue what you are talking about  

In the real world, there are probably ~99% of the people that are
interested in working constructively together. But the last remaining
percent is enough to put grafitti all over the walls in any bigger city
(probably in Sweden too), burn holes in the seats on the subway and
litter the streets. In the end, the majority of the 99% must adjust to
the 1% of idiots. 

It is the same thing with the internet. On a wiki, where defacement and
pranks are easily repaired, the majority might be able to tolerate the
annoying people on the net. With a code repository where everyone can
get a cheap copy and redistribute it: No way, Jose.

This is a meritocracy, not a democracy. Prove me that you know what you
are doing, earn trust and you will get more power.

 'military style rankings' that makes up ASF and most other OSS projects.
 
 Future will tell, but I am putting my money on Open Participation Software 
 (OPS) where everyone is welcome to join in, not barriers of entry and 
 militarism of promotions. ;o)

It seems to me that you have no idea how a larger organization should be
structured. And the ASF with 800+ committers is such a larger
organization. 

There have been lots of experiments in the dot-com bubble startups with
non-hierarchical structures community concensus and self
management. In the end, those companies survived that have modeled
themselves after the good old executive, middle-management, workers
model what has been proven to work in the last few centuries.

Because the others couldn't even agree who should wash the cups after a
meeting and had to hire a consultant for this. 

IMHO you should reflect on:

provide the best basis for law and order. (Theodore M. Bernstein: The

tried out or at least not tried out on a marginally successful project.

Nah. I beg to differ. IMHO the main reason for the startling number of
Apple Laptops between Power Users (at least this is the reason why I
consider getting a Powerbook) is, that this is the only Unix-based,
main-stream system that offers you a wide range of professional end-user
applications on top of Unix. The reason for the acceptance is
vendor-support, not UI slickness. Hell, I sticked with fvwm2 till
middle this year and I still miss a few of its features with Gnome. For
day to day work, I need a bash window or two. And emacs. :-)

And you can run an Unix based application (e.g. for a presentation)
_and_ Powerpoint on one computer. Can't do this with Linux. Can't do
this with Windows.

Laptop support for Linux still sucks. A Powerbook runs all day without
having to recharge. My trusty Toshiba Satellite cleans out its batteries
within two hours under Linux and 3 1/2 hours under Windows. 

Yes, you can get OpenOffice and Gimp for Linux. I don't care. I want
Photoshop and Microsoft Office. And Games... :-)

* Python/Apache are terrible projects to look at. These are established 
 communities towards the core of coding (not as deep as Linux, but close). 
 Instead start looking at a higher level at open community projects 
 concerning things that affect non-coders.

IMHO these are technogeek communities. Not intended for end users.

 The Infrastructure Team has put out requests for help for over a year on
 things that would really help.  There have been a number of people added
 over the past year, who work on specific areas, such as JIRA, the Wiki, etc.
 
 Since last Fall we have added a number of additional root people (and will
 add one more this week).  Unfortunately, we have also grown significantly,
 and some of the people who previously did root work have curtailed their

 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

 The colors got a little tweaked when I converted to JPG, but that can be
 fixed, and if people think it's too busy, I can probably simplify it.  I
 was also thinking about dumping the green entirely and just using the
 color of the shirt itself as the field.  
 
 Anyway, comments and suggestions are more than welcome.

Re: Inappropriate use of announce@

2003-10-21 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
I won't. Life is not fair. I have several customers there (Hofheim), so
I know about this. 

Solution: Move. E.g. my last house move and the location of my office
were purely based on the number of carriers able to offer me bandwith
there. I live in this century, I want to interact with its technology on
the leading edge. Then I must be willing to create foundations to make
this possible. One thing that the ASF is all about is laying foundations
and creating software that people build stuff on.

If you voluntarily chose to stay in a location where you can't get what
you need to keep up, you can't expect others to scale down just so that
you can do.

Henning

   Thus, I urge all ASF projects (and subprojects) follow their example

 No, it means that, at least as far as the IRS is concerned, this is
 potentially an issue, as 501c3 charitable organizations are not supposed
 to be politically active.  The intent is to prevent people from being able
 to make political donations to support a candidate's election and write
 off those donations, as one example.  However, there are plenty of
 advocacy organizations whose 501c3 status is not a question: the EFF, for
 example.  So long as any advocacy we do is around issues and not elections
 or votes or specific politicians, we're good.

Meeting @ LinuxTag

Hi,

as we got no real solution about a meeting at LinuxTag, I'd propose that
we do as suggested by Lars/Rasmus: Meeting Point at the PHP booth

I'll be in Karlsruhe from 10th to 11th, so if anyone wants to chat about
Turbine or other stuff, I'd be happy to meet you there.

Re: Meeting @ LinuxTag, KA, Germany

2003-06-23 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
Hi,

a meeting @ linuxtag would be a reason for me to go there. Until now I
hadn't planned it. 

As we toyed with the idea of a get-together of the german apache people
around christmas last year (gee, another six months gone?), this would

 [I'm crossposting this to community@ and party@ to catch some more eyes; 
 please reply on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 Folks,
 
 some time ago we already had a discussion about a possible ASF meeting
 here in Germany. 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. July and maybe I can also make it one day earlier.

 For linux tag it is most certainly too late - but given that we do not
 have a European/Asian conference planned anytime soon - I could easily see
 a group of coordinated German Apache members working with something like
 LinuxTag to have a german mini apache conference tacked on the end. And
 even borrow the apache logo/pr/name/etc for such.

I'm all +1 on moving our repositories forward, but I've got used to some
of the nice tools surrounding SVN that I don't want to miss.

And then there is the question of things like maven supporting SVN just
as well as CVS. 

For bk there is some sort of CVS compatible read-only view into the
repository. Is this possible for SVN, too?

 Once Karl has finished up the branch/tag support in cvs2svn we can
 do some experimenting with converting cvs repositories.  This is
 the major obstacle, the price of not being able to look at history,
 unless going back to some cvs graveyard, when moving to svn at this
 point in time.  Hence the wait for cvs2svn to be finished.
 
 And then there is the community backing.  Each project has to have
 enough people wanting to move away from cvs, over to subversion.
 I haven't done any polling, but I've a hunch that it won't be an
 objectionless transition for all.

Apache Wiki defaced

2003-06-07 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
The current homepage of the Apache Wiki
(http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi) easily qualifies as one
of the more disgusting pages that I had the misfortune to see this year.

While it would be nice to change it back to a more Apache-Like content,
this opens the question of leaving the door open with no lock really
works in the long run or if we must live with wiki terrorists.

 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.
[1]

To most people, events like the defacing of the main page is an
annoyance. But if we want to promote the wiki as a resource of valuable
information to users, IMHO this could be damaging for the credibility of
the projects.

Regards
Henning

[1] Sounds paranoid? Well, judge for yourself: At least one large
Software Company has been reported to pay PR agencies to place positive
stories about their products / negative stories about competing products
as user reports in the public discussion groups on some well
recognized news sites here in Germany (Heise Ticker).

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.

Re: How BSD hurts OpenSource

2003-05-14 Thread Henning Schmiedehausen
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).

 Probably not the details, but on the other hand, the concept of the
 GPL is clever, and the idea of 'not getting ripped off' appeals to
 people.
 
 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. ;-)

 lot of respect for.

Ok,

we might want to pool the locations and find a spot in the middle. :-)

So far we have Karlsruhe, Aalen and I'm located in Buckenhof which is
for all useful purposes identical to Erlangen.

Regards
Henning

 Hi Henning,
 
 yeah, Munich or any other big city in the southern german area would be
 great.
 
 btw, what about a 'german division meeting'. I'm from Aalen (100km east of
 Stuttgart, 200km north of Munich) and would like to meet some other Apache
 fellows from germany...perhaps we can arrange something...perhaps even on a
 regular basis?

 someone (andy?) started a trend of setting up personal
 web pages at cvs.apache.org (that being where all committers
 have accounts) and i'd like to refresh the idea in everyone's
 mind 'cuz i think it's a good one; help us get familiar with
 each other a bit, maybe.
 
 just put something in cvs.apache.org:$HOME/public_html .. from
 looking at it, there are almost 60 people who have at least
 set up the directory, if not put useful stuff in it.
