This weekend, Yahoo went nuts with its mail server, and I can't POP into it right now. I have changed my .forward, so I can receive new mail--but basically I need a quick recap for the weekend's activity.
1) Are we in agreement to do Beta 2 for LogKit, Framework, and Excalibur now? 2) I skimmed a little on the GPL/APL issues on the Yahoo mail site--can I get a quick summary of where we are on that? 3) Peter, you hade added a makeReadOnly() to some classes, which ones, and why did Initializable not suit your needs? Since we are in beta, I would like to not force a change in how we use Avalon framework components if necessary. Your example has warranted a change, but wouldn't it be better to use the framework for things like this? Just a side note, the reason all my components explicitly check if contextualize(), compose(), configure, and parameterize() have been already called is because I am explicitly enforcing the contract that is in Avalon. As Peter has discovered with the DefaultComponentManager and Configurable classes, if a contract is not explicitly enforced, someone will abuse that contract. I guess you could call it defensive programming--but I would rather force people to do things correctly than have them blame me for an unsecure product. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
