Hi All, Over the past few months Cameron and I have tried to make the RADiX vision a reality. Here's a brief update on the work and a preliminary of what will be shown at ApacheCon 2011 http://www.slideshare.net/PaulRamirez9/apache-oodt-radix. In addition, there is a Wiki that we have been using to collaborate on https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OODT/RADiX+Powered+By+OODT; this is a great place to start to understand RADiX and will likely be the basis for installation documentation. As always volunteers are more than welcome. Feel free to use this list to provide feedback to stuff on the Wiki.
Thanks, Paul & Cameron Begin forwarded message: From: "Ramirez, Paul M (388J)" <paul.m.rami...@jpl.nasa.gov<mailto:paul.m.rami...@jpl.nasa.gov>> Date: April 18, 2011 8:14:16 AM PDT To: "dev@oodt.apache.org<mailto:dev@oodt.apache.org>" <dev@oodt.apache.org<mailto:dev@oodt.apache.org>> Cc: oodt-dev <oodt-...@jpl.nasa.gov<mailto:oodt-...@jpl.nasa.gov>> Subject: RADiX for ApacheCon Hey All, Cameron and I are going to send in a proposal to talk about RADiX at Apache Con in November. RADiX aims to be an easy distribution of OODT with components integrated out of the box. It will provide a direction for both the source and deployment structure of OODT and allow one to easily get from one to the other. Feel free to help out or provide input to this effort at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OODT/RADiX+Powered+By+OODT . We have an initial goal of getting Crawler, FileMgr, and Workflow integrated by end of June and the rest of the components by end of October. As always comments, suggestions, and commits are welcome. As a side note, our Apache Con presentation will focus mostly on RADiX but it would be nice to have a presentation that focused on OODT vocabulary and its paradigm to building data systems; which would flow really well into our presentation. Any others that want to help out in this Apache Con effort the submission deadline is Friday, April 29th http://na11.apachecon.com/. We're hoping that we can build synergy with anyone else that is going to submit a presentation proposal. Thanks, Paul Ramirez & Cameron Goodale
