Hi Uwe, I would not say commonly used but this is an option for smaller projects to find a home - and Apache Commons Sandbox IS the incubator of Apache Commons.
To make the things clearer * checkout commons-email or commons-exec (Disclaimer - I contributed to both projects) * commons-email actually stems from Apache Turbine and was probably promoted to a regular component quickly * commons-exec was a dormant in the sandbox for some time before there was enough activity to justify a regular Apache Commons component * both can be considered useful but there are not sexy (actually you could call them outright boring), have little code and get an occasionally a release * as Apache Commons committer you have a SVN karma for all components Cheers, Siegfried Goeschl > On 31 Oct 2015, at 11:35, Uwe Barthel <bart...@x-reizend.de> wrote: > > Hi Siegfried, > > Thanks for your clarification. > > It's really commonly use to bypass the incubator for small projects to become > Apache Commons subproject status? > > I’m a contributor and not deeply involved to assimilate new projects in ASF. > Thats is, why I vote with zero. > > mit freundlichen Grüßen > Uwe Barthel > -- > bart...@x-reizend.de > > >> On 31 Oct 2015, at 11:01, Siegfried Goeschl <siegfried.goes...@it20one.com> >> wrote: >> >> Hi Uwe, >> >> for such small components Apache incubator is sort of overkill - setup can >> be daunting and Naomi is unlikely to attract a large community.
