Thanks for the candid perspective, Paul. OSS is a challenging space. The fact that castle is an umbrella for many projects, the number of moving parts and interests are even higher.
At the same time that we could have a clear goal/direction and I could enforce it through a "heavy hand", people's motivation to be involved with OSS play a major role. Therefore we should encourage experimentation and disruptive innovation (that's why I consider Henrik's proposal valid). We should strive for finding the balance that make our "work" fun and productive (that's why the repositories will be merged again). > Every OSS project had a different version of Caslte.Core. That's a tough one, since we dont have control over every OSS project. I believe the issue is rooted with the versioning mechanism of the CLR, and they are aware of that - unfortunately I dont see a solution coming any time soon, as it's typical at MS, every one has their own view of what's the best solution is, mutually-exclusive views, which are hard to merge and/or get compromises. But maybe we can do something to make it better, suggestions? Henrik, For the future it's better to not use the Castle name unless something is fully blessed by the team, as to avoid confusion.
