Hi Mark, hi all Thank you for your welcome messages. To say a little more about me, I'm the maintainer of a java virtual machine called JnJVM using gnu classpath as its core classes. The vm has originally been developped by Gael Thomas. You can get more informations on his home page
http://www-src.lip6.fr/homepages/Gael.Thomas/ It's more a personal page, but i'm optimistic one day we'll have something more professional. Cheers, Nicolas Mark Wielaard wrote:
Hi all, Now that we are growing so fast it is probably a good idea to introduce new developers "officially" on the list so everybody knows when the GNU Classpath family gains a new member. Everybody with CVS write access is of course also listed on our savannah page: https://savannah.gnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group=classpath Nicolas Geoffray has been helping us out with RMI, Serialization and Classloader issues. Christian (twisti) Thalinger has been helping and fixing issues so the Cacao plus GNU Classpath combination truly rocks (especially on non-x86 platforms). Note that you don't have to apply for CVS write access if you don't want to. If you just want to supply an occasional patch now and then and your paperwork is in order it can just as easily be applied by one of the regulars after you sent it to the classpath-patches list or added it to bugzilla. But it is often easier to be able to do it yourself. So don't hesitate to ask me to add you to the list. At the irc meeting at the start of this month we discussed whether more formal rules are needed. Everybody seemed to agree that if the legal side is correctly handled then we should not impose any extra procedures unless there is a clear need (people acting in some anti-social way). So the "rules" (1) are more like gentlemen agreements. We expect people to play nice, listen to each other and take each others opinion seriously. This seems to work just fine. And we hope to keep it that way. Please help out by reviewing patches of new members quickly with some extra care and love (nitpicking allowed if you do it gently). Happy Hacking, Mark (1) Our "rules" are outlined in the GNU Classpath Hacker Guide: http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/docs/hacking.html Everybody should read them and where possible improve them!
