I am in favor of moving things back to Apache, too bad the refactor wasn't done here to begin with though.
That's my fault. When Petar started the work, the changes would be too big for supplying patches at Jira (one patch would be a few megabytes, for instance). So, I said I would check if we could set up some sort of sandbox on Jakarta where he could commit the changes, but I ended up not pursuing such task.
The consequence of this is, that the changes need to come through the incubator.
Are you sure that's the only alternative? I mean, the project is already stale, I am afraid that would slow down things even more. What if we are able to automatically apply each change, using SVN scripts? If he started the Sourceforge repository from a given ASF repository release, it should not be that hard.
- Gettings CLA's on file - Start a vote to get Petar on board as a committer.
If we start such vote and get him approved as a Cactus committer (which CLA in place), would we still need the incubator step?
The first 3 is to make sure that everything is covered legally.
I understand our precautions on the legal field (and that's one of the main advantages of ASF compared to other OSS organizations), but I can assure we're fine on Petar's case, i.e., he will gladly follow all the procedures we ask him too. -- Felipe --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
