Thoughts?


Hm... Your proposal does make sense
but I am not quite sure if incubator
is the right way to deal with the
sandbox. Reasons why:

 o Sandbox components are usually
   small. Whether they can exist
   as their own full project is
   questionable. Or do you want
   to incubate it as an explicit
   jakarta commons component?

 o Access to the sandbox should
   be easy without any hurdles
   to give a testbed for try-outs.
   Not sure if the Incubator is
   the right place for such things.

 o Big, donated code chunks do
   need incubation. AFAIK all
   donated code has to go through
   incubation anyway. AFAIU most
   (well, hopefully all) code in
   the sandbox is coming from
   within the ASF ...so incubation
   is not required. Why should we
   move it to the incubator then?

I think what we require is some process.

 o How to handle dormant sandbox projects?
 o What is the definition of dormant?
 o How to handle code donations to jakarta
   (commons)

Not sure whether passing all this
on to the incubator really will make
things that much better ...or easier

WDYT
