My 2 cents, If we switch over BigG as outlined in the Jan 29th email from Dain [1] in the next few months(?)/year(?), then we should just move XBean outside of BigG as a separate project.

I agree with both of you. I agree with James that XBean is getting close to needing it's own mailing list (I don't think it is there yet, but I can see what prompted the request). I with Ken that when XBean gets to the point of needing a separate mailing list it should start the transition to becoming a separate project. My guess is XBean will make a turn to become a standalone in the next 6 months or it will get settle into just another subproject of Geronimo. I'm curious to see how it will all shake out. :) -dain On May 25, 2006, at 6:23 AM, Rodent of Unusual Size wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > James Strachan wrote: >> >> So I was wondering; maybe we should create mailing lists for XBean >> and >> then it becomes effectively a new subproject with its own identity. >> >> Given the slow release cycles of Geronimo, XBean could end up being >> the cool & trendy young sister project, releasing often which could >> innovate and help gain traction faster which, given that stuff that >> works in XBean will ultimately work great in Geronimo too is a win- >> win >> alround. > > If XBean is as separate as all that, it should be its own project > and not part of Geronimo.
