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 On 7/6/06, Jukka Zitting <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
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.
