Hi, the Ivy project [1], a dependency manager for Java builds, is thinking about its future and wants to become a true Open Source project [2]. We have been in contact, particularly with Xavier Hanin, to discuss the possibility of Ivy moving to the ASF.
The Ivy project has prepared a proposal to join the ASF incubator [3]. The Ant PMC has just voted the following resolution : ------------------------ The Ant PMC sponsors Ivy moving to the Apache Incubator. If the Ivy community wishes to move Ivy to become an Ant subproject after successful incubation, and if the ASF board agrees to it, Ant will welcome Ivy as a subproject after the incubation period. ------------------------ The proposal still needs people willing to take the champion and mentor roles at the incubator in behalf of Ivy. See [4] for a full explanation. The champion can be any member of the Ant PMC or a member of the ASF. The mentor has to be a member of the ASF.
