After some discussion with David Loyd on IRC, the context has been
clarified : Log2Log won't be an Apache project.
Here is the copy of this convo :
<dmlloyd> elecharny: don't worry - log2log is a completely separate
project. No impact on MINA or any ASF project whatsoever - and thus it
is out of Alex's (or anyone else's) jurisdiction :)
<elecharny> where will it be stored ?
<dmlloyd> jboss.org
<elecharny> ok
<elecharny> this was not clear in Trustin's mail...
<elecharny> so my question :)
<dmlloyd> it's a reasonable question :)
<elecharny> can you answer it on the ML so that Alex don't get mad ?
<dmlloyd> hm, well I think alex gets mad any time he sees the name
"David Lloyd" and "Logging" together :)
<dmlloyd> but I can do so
<elecharny> dmlloyd, don't think that Alex has anything against you at all.
<elecharny> it's all about the way the ASF works
<dmlloyd> yeah, the whole veto thing
<elecharny> there are rules, they must be followed, thaht's it
<elecharny> in three years, Alex just vetoed one single thing, and it
was the log proposal
<elecharny> pretty reasonnable ...
<dmlloyd> sure
Another thing that's I don't think is correct : I searched about an
announcement on the SLF4j site about this MDC improvement and didn't
found any. After some googling, I found the convos here :
http://www.nabble.com/basic-MDC-support-for-java.util.logging-td13142522.html
It's certainly mandatory to CC the MINA mailing list for such things, as
it has an impact on the code base. Some of us may have some opinions or
ideas about other technical solutions, and would prefer to be informed
before any decision is made. And having to google to get the rationals
is definitively painful...
This is the way we work, and it should be followed, for the good of the
project !
Thanks.
