Agreed. It's also important to remember that, beyond keeping all of the dev discussions in one place, one of the main reasons ASF projects are set up this way, with commit messages and wiki changes going to the dev list, is for legal oversight. That doesn't necessarily preclude other options, but whatever else we do, we need to ensure that we retain oversight. -- Martin Cooper Don > > Martin Cooper wrote: > > On 1/17/06, Sean Schofield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >>>IMHO, it sounds like Jive is not up to the task of managing an > >>>ASF-style dev list.
