> I am not concerned about the icla or not
As a PMC member for Apache MyFaces, you *should* be concerned about this.
... Yes I agree! But that was not questionalbe (from my side). I think that "I am not concerned about the icla or not" was wrong understood. sure I care about the ICLA stuff, but I am pointing out to another issue here. The sort of "offline" development. Sending offline a patch to a committer for letting him commit the stuff is to me a -1. Looks like a "bypass". I mean how can a discussion come up on stuff like that? Only when the commit is done? That's not what I understand from "open development". Discussion, after inspecting the committed code? No, to me. Creating an issue on jira is important (not "only" b/c of the licensing). The lack of license headers in java files needs to be fixed. I hope it's now more clear, what I am concerned about... (be sure about the iCLA/license header too). But offline development is bad, to me. -Matthias
