Hi Jukka,

Personally, I will be very happy if you want to join the team. It will be a
great benefit for the Graffito project if we can work more with the
Jackrabbit team.  Furthermore your Jackrabbit incubation & JCR experiences
will be also very usefull of us.

Contrary to Alex, I think the project main goals are clear : Graffito is a
framework for building content oriented applications like forums, news
management (mainly for portal servers). Let me know if the following page is
not correct (or can be improved )  : http://incubator.apache.org/graffito/.

Now, we are facing to the JCR support that's why the subporjects
JCR/mapping, JCR/Spring,..  are there. Those tools could be move outside the
Graffito project. I'm open to discuss on that but I have no time to organise
this change.

+1 so see you as a new mentor.

Thanks,
Christophe

Hi graffito-dev!

I just joined the mailing list after a long while of following the
project by the web site and the incubation status reports. I'm a
committer and the release manager of the Apache Jackrabbit project,
whom some of you already know from the Jackrabbit mailing lists.

I've been keeping an eye on Graffito as an approach of building
applications on top of the JCR API, and would like to help increase
the coupling between the Jackrabbit and Graffito communities. To do
this I'm volunteering to join Raphaƫl as a mentor of Graffito, of
course assuming that you'd have me as a mentor.

I'm not a long-time Apache veteran and have few contacts with the
Portals project, but I've got fresh hands-on experience from the
Jackrabbit project ranging from early days of it's incubation to
successful graduation. Along the way I touched virtually all parts of
the incubation process and a good number of other practices that
define the Apache Way. I'd love to share that experience with you.

BR,

Jukka Zitting
