Thanks Raymond.
Strictly the code should not be in SVN until it has been cleared
legally and part of that would be to deal with issues like the
copyright here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/sandbox/rfeng/
ejb/binding/pom.xml
First step of the legal side is to have receipt acknowledged by an
authorized member of the ASF which could be any of our mentors or the
IPMC Chair. This ack would be reflected in the ip-clearance page.
Then we can vote to accept the contribution (lazy consensus by the
IPMC being enough but they do need to be notified).
There are more details on the process here:
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/ip-clearance-template.html
I have questions about what we are going to do with this but I'll
leave those for your other thread.

Hi,
Sorry for the confusion as I'm new to this situation. I meant to
get the code into SVN as a base for discussion. I chose the
paticular branch simply because I only need minor effort to get the
code built.
I moved the code to my sandbox for now (http://svn.apache.org/repos/
asf/incubator/tuscany/sandbox/rfeng/ejb) and removed it from the
branch.
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&rev=511566
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&rev=511567
I'll start another thread to discuss if and/or how we can accept
the contribution.
Thanks,
Raymond

There has been no discussion at all about this contribution in the
community. We've had someone from a vendor attach code in JIRA, a
co-
worker say they would review and "possibly check it into a sandbox"
and then this commit to a branch only the vendor's employees are
working on. Not one single mail to the dev list. This isn't
community
development, it's a code dump.
Please take this out of SVN and talk to the community about it - you
might find people are interested in it.
Could one of our mentors/IPMCers comment on if this -1 comes with
enough of
a technical reason to make it a veto? If thats the case you need
to revert
the commit now before anymore discussion Raymond.
Hopefully there will be discussion and development of the ejb
binding on the
ML in future, but the way its been done I don't think warrants it
being
removed right now. As I understand it there has been a CCLA
received by
Apache for the code. In the past there's been a lot of similar sized
function committed to Tuscany trunk with no discussion until
afterwards, and
this code didn't get put in the trunk. More discussion would be
better but I
think one reason people do it this way may be as its easier to
talk about
things once there is actual code in SVN to refer to and try out.
The commit
was done late on Friday probably they're off for the weekend now,
so how
about waiting to see if they start discussions about this
contribution on
Monday.
...ant
PS, Rashmi, this looks really good to me and nicely written, i
think it
would be a great addition to Tuscany. Hope you don't get put off
by this
procedural debate and and can stick around to help develop Tuscany
further.
