So therefore I call forth the opening for the position of the Official Roadmap Maintainer :-)

(I don't think I have the time to update a roadmap - I rather use the time for coding. But if someone is savvy enough with JIRA and ChangeLog, and bothers to pester the committers what their plan are next in a regular interval, they would make one killer roadmap writer... Anybody want to take the job? It would be easy enough to maintain in the wiki)

Its a very good idea to publish an honest road map, even if it will be
changed every other week. Hope is fun.

Short, simple to understand and attractive to end-users.

Using the Wiki in trac is a bit intricated compared to JSPWiki. However,
combining Wiki with issue mgmt, version control and roadmaps of
milestones in an easy manner seems worth trying.

Any plans to broaden the functionality scope in a similar direction?

Heya!

I don't think moving to Apache Incubation had anything to do with it,
really - I believe it's just the fact that all of the developers are
busy elsewhere with new jobs or children. Or both, in my case.

You're right that we haven't kept the web sites up to date. When
you're under time constraints, SVN and code takes precedence :-). If
there's a volunteer who would like to help in maintaining the web site
and the wiki, it would be a great help. No coding expertise required;
just someone who wants to write about JSPWiki. But yeah, we should
really stick something on the websites.

As to why there haven't been that many plugins or templates... I don't know. Perhaps there just aren't that many users anymore for standalone
wikis :-/.

I wouldn't use the JIRA as a guideline for project activity; if you
take a look at Firefox Bugzilla, they'll have major things open from
2004 or so in it...

Hi Guys

I'm an avid fan of JSPWiki, but I'm concerned about it's future with it
being part of the Apache incubator project

The reasons are:

- Edits on jspwiki seem to be slowing down
- No-one has been contributing Templates. When I started using
JSPWiki at
ver 2.0.x there where a whole bunch and then it slowed down. By ver 2.6
no-one was contributing any more
- The same applies to the plugins
- The http://incubator.apache.org/jspwiki/ site seems very lean and
nothing
much seems to be going on
- The JIRA site seems to have items logged in 2008 with no resolution

Having said all of this; the number & frequency of subversion commits
seems
to be fairly ok which might indicate that their is perhaps nothing to
fear?
:)

I know the more people helping on a project the better. Unfortunately
I can
only be an avid user and fan and not contribute due my hectic work
and 60+
hours weeks.

If we the fans have nothing to fear, may I be so bold as to ask the
team to
stick something on the main page of jspwiki.org as well as the incubator page explaining that there is nothing to fear and that the project is
alive
and kicking. Also (I'm not sure if this is somewhere), do you have
any idea
of the release roadmap concerning rough dates... i.e. from 2.8.3 to
3.0 to
3.1?


Thanks Guys

A major fan

Greg
