I think that the main thing is to get into the categories that people looking for "something like OFBiz" would look.

I suspect that if it was in the project-management category, we would get people who are upset that they have to load up so much software to get a PM tool.

We would be alone in Application.

<category rdf:resource="http://projects.apache.org/category/content"; />

So content does not show yet, I added it 3 months ago

I agree aboutbeing in "frameworks and tools" category.
I wonder if OFBiz would not be alone in an application category ;)
What about "project-management"? We have a good component.

The category chosen for OFBiz is a bit odd.
It is in the "Database" category. https://projects-new.apache.org/projects.html?category

"Frameworks and tools" looks like a more accurate choice given the exiting categories.

Perhaps we could ask for a new category "Application" to be added.

The rank by number of committers looks good with OFBiz in the top 1/3 of projects.

Hi all,

IIt seems that the registration of our project at
http://projects-new.apache.org is not correct as it isn't listed in the
overview of Projects by PMC (
https://projects-new.apache.org/projects.html?pmc). The reason is explained
below.

Could we have this fixed please?

Best regards,

I finally found time to investigate:

this is because ofbiz is not in pmcs reference list [1] used by the site to
create pmcs.json [2]

it seems one step was missed during OFBiz TLP creation [3]

As PMC Chair and/or member, you should be able to fix it [4]

Once done, just tell and I'll regenerate the pmcs.json file

Regards,

Hervé

Now that every committer has commit privs, I continued my improvements
(about
Attic, whimsy, categories) and added an About page:
https://projects-new.apache.org/about.html

It is pretty basic at the moment, but tells important things to
contribute.
The format is quite simple, but since it's handwritten html...

Now what remains to do before we can switch projects.a.o to projects-new
content?
I made a list of "TbD" in the About page listing content that exists in
previous site that should be somthing like imported IMHO

WDYT?


Notice that the Comdev PMC does not have any DOAP file, then no page to
describe its structure. Same applies to special comittees
(Infrastructure,
Travel Assistance, Security Team, Legal Affairs and Brand Management).
Don't
you think we should list these PMCs like any other?

Hervé
