Then server-related discussions would end up on the
mailing lists of the new project. There is still some
discussion going on, and it is not focused on the
WebDAV client afaik. If the new project is not taking
over the whole Slide codebase, it shouldn't take over
the existing mailing lists either. I don't consider
that decision as something we can care about later.

We might end up doing that if Slide is officially
declared dormant/unsupported, but so far the
participation in this discussion is clearly insufficient
for such a step. Besides, I see the new project as a
potential home for more than just HttpComponents and
the Slide WebDAV client. For the moment, I can think
of the following:

- HttpComponents
- Multipart Request Entity
  (not HTTP, but required for WebDAV)
- WebDAV
- CalDAV (extension to WebDAV)
- not-yet-commons-ssl (HTTPS)

Anyway, with just the two of us sharing our views,
this discussion is moot. Allowing 7 days for a vote
and 3 days in advance for a board meeting agenda,
we're already too late to make it to the board meeting
on Aug 29. The next scheduled meeting after that is
on Sep 19. With all due respect to Oliver, if we
don't see significantly more (diverse) input from
the Slide side until early September, I would prefer
to send HttpComponents TLP on it's own. The WebDAV
client could still join when things for Slide are
sorted out here at Jakarta.

cheers,
  Roland
