Hi,
This is a linked vote to release both Texen 1.0 and Anakia 1.0. These are
branches from the engine, with new package designations org.apache.texen
and
org.apache.anakia. We are breaking these out to separate the issue
tracking
and release cycles, and to encourage involvement from community members who
are interesting in using those tools but not the entire Velocity package.
Anakia??? Texen??? (What is Texen again???)
Aren't those things completely abandoned? I mean, I thought that DVSL
was supposed to supersede Anakia technically, i.e. people were supposed
to use that. Of course, DVSL itself is now abandoned as well, like for 5
years or so.
What is this? What are you guys doing? Isn't this necrophiliac behavior
a bit too blatant even for you guys?
It's like you believe that by gathering around some old bones, and
chanting some voodoo incantations (release cycle, issue tracking, blah
blah) that the bones will rise up, flesh will grow upon them, and they
will once again walk among the living. Even if this were possible,
should the dead be disturbed from their justly earned repose?
The above is rhetorical, I guess, but here is a question I would like an
answer to for the record: Are you really truly encouraging people to use
these things?

I'd like to be more specific on criteria: Please only vote +1 if you have
actually downloaded and tested the release candidate. If you are generally
positive but are not able to test the release candidate, feel free to vote
+0.
The release candidates (compiled with JDK 1.4.2, tested on JDK 1.5 and JDK
1.6) are available from:
http://people.apache.org/~wglass/anakia/candidate-1.0/
http://people.apache.org/~wglass/texen/candidate-1.0/
Vote:
[ ] +1 Yes, release both Anakia 1.0 and Texen 1.0. I have personally
checked the release.
[ ] +0 Yes, release both Anakia 1.0 and Texen 1.0.
[ ] 0 I'm neutral.
[ ] -1 Do not release because ____________________________
The vote will be open for 72 hours until Wednesday 9AM US Pacific time,
though I'll keep it open until next weekend if we don't get 3 PMC +1 votes.
My vote is +1.
Thanks,
WILL
