FYI, I've moved my RSS reader servlet (named "Inbound") to sandbox/
morgen/parcels/inbound.

Hi all,
We had several discussions last week about example parcels, and
made some decisions...
For 0.6, we are going to have four "example" parcels:
* ZaoBao, currently maintained by Morgen
* Amazon wish list, currently maintained by Chao
* Flickr, currently maintained by Ted
* Hello world, to be created by John
Example parcels are treated as part of the 0.6 release, and need to
be maintained as we would any other parcel that is part of 0.6.
Unit tests must pass. If new bugs are introduced they will be
treated as regressions. For right now, example parcels live at
parcels/osaf/examples, although we may move them as part of a
general flattening of the package/parcel hierarchy.
We decided to promote the amazon and flickr parcels to "example"
status, as they have turned out to be compelling examples. We'd
like them to continue to work against the latest milestones. We
have not yet checked them into the tree, this should happen soon.
Ted is going to get permission from the original authors before we
checkin the flickr parcel to the tree. We also decided to create a
very simple "hello world" parcel; this parcel is intended to
provide a very gentle introduction to creating parcels.
On a related note, we're going to create a "sandbox" area in our
svn repository to hold parcels, tools or other projects that
developers are working on but are not formally part of the release.
We will have no expectation that code in the sandbox is maintained
in a working state. More details will come in a separate email
(from Bear).
Someday we may create a "contrib" area, which would function as a
holding place for working parcels that are not yet part of the
release, with a different set of expectations than we have for
example parcels. For now, we think that "examples" and the
"sandbox" will be enough to support our current practice.
Cheers,
Katie
