unless I am doing something wrong it looks like I still do not have any write/edit permission on the wiki. > I > agree as well for determining a checklist for the graduation and keep > in mind 1) a stable release and 2) community development are crucial > issues ATM, IMHO. > If there isn't an active community contributing on the project, even > if the code is mature, I'm worried it wouldn't be accepted as TLP. +1 > >> +1 also for me with a little but... >> I do agree with you that the 1.0(a) stuff is kind of obsolete at this point. >> I would do an exception for the client part though.

If I am not completely wrong some major sites (e.g. twitter) are still using version 1.0a of the spec. For this reason, if we want to gather any crowd to use Amber it would be good to support at least client side also version 1.0a otherwise people would be oriented to use some other Java libraries (e.g. Scribe). The effort to do it for the client module should not be to huge, but there is obviously an overhead. But again just my 2 cents :) Regards Antonio > Please take this as a strict personal point of view ;) > > Other feedbacks from other committers? > TIA, > - Simo > > [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AMBER/Index > > http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ > http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ > http://twitter.com/simonetripodi > http://www.99soft.org/
