Hello everyone! The developer(s) of https://github.com/davidmc24/gradle-avro-plugin are interested in finding a home for the Gradle plugin that generates Avro specific classes for the Java SDK. This is the equivalent of the Avro maven plugin that we currently maintain and would provide the same functionality to downstream projects using gradle. This software is already Apache 2.0 licensed.
The principal contributor (David M. Carr) has been in touch on the mailing list and has graciously offered some time to guide with the transition. Based on these discussions, it is being proposed to donate this implementation into the Apache Avro project to continue developing it together with the Apache Avro community following the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) guidelines. This vote is to determine if the Avro PMC is in favor of accepting this donation. If the vote passes, the PMC and the authors of the code will work together to complete the ASF IP Clearance process (http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/) and import the gradle plugin implementation into the Avro codebase. +1 : Accept contribution of the gradle-avro-plugin implementation 0 : No opinion -1 : Reject contribution because... Here is my vote: +1 (binding) Discussion and non-binding votes are welcome! The vote will be open for at least 72 hours. Thanks, Ryan [original-discussion]: https://lists.apache.org/thread/dtjtzjqq61g8cdtosgnqg1s1tygg09sq
