Exactly, first grow a little more in commons proper and then move out if the scope or community grows towards a jakarta level.

I'm +1 for the following reason:

It does make sense that feedparser would be a higher level subproject of
Jakarta and not a commons component, but it doesn't make sense to
promote a 3 person community to subproject status just yet.  I think
feedparser should follow the path of commons math and httpclient.  Stay
on the commons-dev mailing lists, and when the community grows start
thinking about migrating out of the commons.

+1

To promote feedparser out of commons at this point might create the
possibility for another BCEL.

Dirk,


from what I can see feedparser seems more like a top level
java project

than a commons one. Maybe it should go straight from the sandbox to jakarta?



What I'm worried about this is that we might be a bit early for a top level java project. We only have 3 developers and we haven't done a release yet (because we're prevented from doing one). Maybe its time for the incubator but I'm a bit nervous about that since it seems REALLY complicated from my perspective. Maybe its easier now...


My current goal of moving from the sandbox to the commons was to do a release and just get more developers. Then in a couple months we can look at the situation again.

Is there a pattern of projects moving from the commons to a top level jakarta project?

I just want to do whats easy and conventional for now ;)
