Part of the 'privilege' of being able to host your project on Jakarta is the requirement of needing to accept our way of doing things. Of course being dictators about everything isn't going to work...things like forcing everyone to use OSX and a certain IDE definitely won't fly... However, when there are areas where we know damn well that something is the right way to do things (such as using the ASF license, using Gump's nag features, having javadocs targets and being consistent in using documented code formatting), that is part of being part of the Jakarta Community and the group of people who 'get it'. It is part of being in a larger community collective and sharing some similar values and development principles. That is what should make us different than Sourceforge... -jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
