Well, maybe we moved on a bit too progressively, but actually, the code has already been taken off-Apache and some work has already been done: https://scm.ops4j.org/repos/ops4j/laboratory/hivemind/ For explanation: - hivemind1 is a copy of the HiveMind 1 trunk - hivemind2 is a copy of the HiveMind 2 trunk - devel is a branch of HiveMind 1, where we made our first changes The two copies from Apache's source repository are completely unmodified, except the inconsistent newlines in the XML files. The plan is to release ASAP what would have been HiveMind 1.2 under a new name. Based on this, we'd like to provide support and maintenance, i.e. there won't be any new features, bug fixes only. After that, we're going to start development of a NextGen HiveMind based on hivemind2. So, what's the proposal? - Someone from Apache changes it in the OPS4J repository? - Apache changes it at Apache and we merge the changes? - Apache changes it at Apache and we start over? - We just leave it forever? It seems a bit unfortunate, that something like this happens with the first project being moved to the Attic, then again, that's part of the learning process of how to do that, I guess ... ;) Cheers, Raffi -- The difference between theory and practice is that in theory, there is no difference, but in practice, there is.
