Hi Oleg,

I only have an opinion on point 1. If there hasn't been
serious trouble with Jakarta, I don't think we should
leave our home. Option 1.2 sounds good.

I do *not* include an idea for a different name here,
since that should probably be discussed in a
dedicated thread.

cheers,
  Roland

Important things to discuss. Please make your opinion known






Folks,

There are three issues that I think we need to discuss:

(1) I inquired with the Jakarta PMC regarding the possibility of the 
project name change (Jakarta HttpClient -> Jakarta Http). The reaction was 
overwhelming negative, primarily due to high likelihood of branding 
conflict with Apache HTTPD, which is a very valid point. We have several 
options here: 

(1.1) leave Jakarta and join another TLP (either Apache Tomcat or Apache 
HTTPD) where _might_ be permitted to call the project jHTTP or some such 
sort
(1.2) stay with Jakarta and try to come up with a radically different 
project name
(1.3) essentially do nothing and keep the same name. In this case we are 
likely to not be permitted to release any lightweight HTTP server or proxy 
under Jakarta name

(2) Migration to JIRA. This finally can happen and happen very soon. The 
question is if we still want it. If yes, might have to decide on the 
project name before the migration takes place

(3) 3.0 release. 3.0rc3 have not had any major bugs reported for quite 
some time. Do we want to release another RC4 before the final release or 
not?

Please let me know what you think. Everyone is very welcome to throw in 
their ideas

Cheers,

Oleg
PS: Henri, I took liberty of putting you on the CC to keep you in the 
loop. I hope it is okay with you
