I should have said software grant. That is, unless we vote Jason Matthews in as a committer (or already is one unbeknownst to me), which we will probably want to do if he's committed to helping maintain the code. At any rate, after reviewing the code, should we decide to assimilate it, we ought to fire an inquiry to the PMC list since it's more than a small patch. My preference is to get something signed whether it's a software grant or the usual mandatory CLA after voting the contributor in as a committer. In other news, we need to write a status file to keep track of what we need to get done before a 1.2 release. I'll get to it over the next week if no one beats me to it. So far we've got the VMS parser issue and a review of the NTP/SNTP code. We ought to scan the bug list, but if Ant is waiting for a new release, we can postpone bug fixes to 1.2.1 and make 1.2 only a functionality enhancement release. daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
