Jukka:

[Repeating a posting I made recently on the Jackrabbit Dev's ocm thread. The decision point appears to be at hand.]

Let me suggest that a *fresh* name for the "jcr mapping" component within Jackrabbit would help 1) create a bigger buzz, 2) bring in fresh contributors and 3) reduce confusion.

Here are a few names that I came up with. To my knowledge, any one of these could be used without confusion. But, *any* name shorter and snappier than "jcr-mapping" would be +1 with me.

  * Occam
  * Jacob
  * Snowshoe  (non-hibernating jackrabbit)
  * JackInPOX  (like JPOX, Java Persistent ObjectX)
  * Jacko

Any idea, at this point, what name you would use for this subproject in
Jackrabbit?

I have "graffito" in my dependent code now.   I would not want to change
this to "jackrabbit" as that would imply a dependency that does not
exist.   (Other JCRs are not excluded.)



I would figure that the mapping too would end up as something like a
"jcr-mapping" project within the "org.apache.jackrabbit" group. Note
that the "Jackrabbit content repository" appears independently as a
"jackrabbit-core" project within the same group, so having the mapping
tool as a Jackrabbit subproject wouldn't imply a code dependency on
the Jackrabbit core as they would both just share the JCR API
dependency and the same groupId.

Hi,

To better prepare for a move to the Jackrabbit project, I'd like to
propose making a release of the JCR mapping subproject. The code seems
to be stable enough for a release and all the IP issues have already
been resolved, so there should be no major remaining issues.

Would someone like to step up as the release manager? It's a task that
gets you pretty familiar with various policies and procedures of the
ASF. I'll be happy to assist in any way I can.

PS. I'd like to follow up with a release of also the full Graffito
framework, but it's probably easier to do a more limited release
first.

BR,
