Hello guys, first of all let me introduce myself. My name is Petar Tahchiev and I am from Bulgaria.
I wanted to enroll in the last-years Google Summer Of Code where I applied with the project of migrating the Cactus build system to Maven. Unfortunatelly me and Felipe Leme (my mentor), who I would like to thank once again for the encouragement and the help he provided me, weren't qualified. Later I had a few personal issues to solve, but the point is that I continued to work on my own and sooner I managed to migrate the Cactus project to be built with Maven. When everything was done I started submitting patches in the cactus jira, for some known bugs. The problem with the patch of the build system was that it turned out to be very large so I couldn't apply it in the jira. Then me and Felipe agreed that it would be better to move the cactus to a separate repository and test the build system there (you understand that the new build structure was absolutely different from the old one and merging was a kind of a tough task). So I got my work and imported it in my own repository at the sourceforge.netwhere we began testing. The point is that when we wanted to apply the changes in the cactus trunk in the Apache repository we were adviced by Martin van den Bemt that we have to ask that the project be moved in the incubator first and then when the code is appropriate for the cactus's trunk move it in the trunk. Now the process of moving Cactus in the incubator is stalled, as well as our work on it, because I want to move it in the incubator, before I continue making additional changes and implementing new features. So my request to you guys is this: if anyone can help us move the code in the incubator, he is more than wellcome. Thank you very much. P.S.
