As I said: the more I think about it - the more I like the idea!
You've got my +1 :)
But is that what you mean? (+1 is active not passive)
It is what I mean, though it's contextual (is for all of us). In my case
it's:
If someone were to dig into this and find or create a solution, I would
actively test it, hassle infra/whomever, throw in ideas and do a little
coding - but I'm not going to be much use if a large chunk of time to
code/design is required.
This all sounds like a nice idea, and could potentially solve the difficult
issues and choices which we seem to be trying to make.
But is it practical? Is there a tool out there that does this? Are there one
or more people willing to drive this through and make it happen in the next
three months?
If its possible and is going to happen then we shouldn't do Jakarta Language
Components. But if this idea isn't going to happen then JLC should be
created. How will we make the decision?
It's nice to talk - Robert's mentioned the idea in the past so it's good
to have more brains thinking on the idea; however I wouldn't let it get in
the way of simpler ideas for dealing with the current state. Presuming it
involves a large buy in from the foundation - ie) not something we could
do on our own - I'd factor in 6 months to a year to get that large a
group moving :)
