hi

(from what i can see) JRCS is in the sandbox at the moment. some sandbox components have entries on the commons web site linked to web pages for that component.

(like most other things here at apache) there isn't a central body responsible for creating the links - it's up to volunteers to take the initiative. if you want to create some web pages for JRCS and link them from the commons page at jakarta, then what you need to do is create some patches and then commit them (if you have commons karma) or post them to the list.

the commons web site is generated using anakia from xml (the format will be familiar if you've used maven for documentation). these documents are stored in cvs in jakarta-commons/xdocs. the right thing to do is to patch the original xml documents in there. you can then check the results by re-creating the html by using the top-level (ie jakarta-commons) ant task.

there are general three approaches which people take to creating web pages for their components but i'm only going to explain two of them (since the third would take a lot of explaining and requires karma for daedelus).

the first is by creating a new xml document in xdocs. take a look at xdocs/
digester.xml as an example.

the second approach can only be used by maven-built components. here, you use the documentation generated by maven and deploy your site to the server using maven.

i'm not sure which you prefer so i'll not go into any more detail.

Folks,

I donated JRCS, a Java framework for managing RCS/CVS archives,
to the Jakarta.Apache for a long time. It was originally in
Maven (which is currently using protocol based access to CVS)
and later moved to the Commons.

Right now JRCS lacks a home at Apache. I'ts not even listed on
the sandbox. I don't think it's likely anyone in Jakarta or
anywhere else will contribute anything to the project with such
anonimity.

I'm new to Apache, and I would need help to get JRCS visible on
the Jakarta site. Any volunteers?

The framework is fairly complete and stable, with JUnit tests
covering most of it. The only feature lacking I know of is
support for binary (-kb) archives.

T. Hariharan [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] conducted a series of tests over
600 or so archives. He recovered all the versions from each
archive, and assembled the archives back, all with JRCS.
Everything went fine, except from some discrepancies in the
order in which the CVS and JRCS diff algorithms think things
should be done. It all works all the same.

The JRCS project currently lives at:

  :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvsjakarta-commons-sandbox/jrcs

I still maintain the page at:

  http://www.suigeneris.org/jrcs/

and make releases when things get fixed or improved.

Comments welcome.

Regards,

Juanco
