Hi everyone, The GContracts project (design-by-contract extension for Groovy) has been archived: https://github.com/andresteingress/gcontracts/ I believe there is sufficient merit in the functionality it offers for us to consider taking up support of the codebase, and the project owner, Andre Steingress, is happy for that transition to take place.
I think there are some regulations to follow from the ASF side. Since you and Andre are the sole committers it should not be too difficult. Best of course would be if Andre would be a Apache member, then we could do this as simple code contribution
We could try to re-invigorate GContracts outside the ASF but I think our community where a larger pool of folks can contribute when they have availability makes more sense than another single person trying to take it over and then potentially running out of steam down the track. We could give it it's own repo and have it as a subproject but for now I think it is easiest just to have it as an optional module in the core repo (targeting Groovy 4). In the PR, I have marked the main annotations as @Incubating for the time being. For further details, see here: https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/1337 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9671
+1 except... would this loose the history? That would not be nice. bye Jochen
