I have become very interested in your product, more so I am interested
in helping with some development. I was planning on writing a decent
listserve mailet. I've been looking through the code of the last
release and am finding it hard to follow. I look at the head of the cvs
and I see significant changes and it appears you've started a push to
the new Avalon Framework. My questions all pretty much relate to that
push. How far along is the complete switch? What version of Avalon was
used in the latest release? Can I get the source to the Avalon that was
used in that release (I'm having a real hard time finding it through
conventional CVS use, Avalon has changed a lot). What is the current
roadmap planned for James? Should I begin my development with the
stable release or should I start by using the <blank>? Is there any
work being done on the readability of your code namely the includes.
Let me explain. In all your files you include entire packages with
wildcards. When coming across a method or Class it is hard to find the
javadoc/source to grasp an idea of what is fully going on, because the
realms are so large. I suggest that includes should avoid wildcards and
try to include only what is actually used in the particular file. This
will make browsing the source much less painful.
Any suggestions/comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mike Stanley
