I've been playing around with it for most of the day, but just realized
that the notification was just via JIRA, not to the list.
Last night Gavin loaded our dump file.
You can grab our code at: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/odf/trunk
Great news. I've updated the project status page:
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/odftoolkit.html
(May take an hour or so to show up)
Once it has updated, can people check through and ensure all the status
entries are up to date?
At that point, the website, the code, the issues, and the mailing
lists are all at Apache.
How are we doing on code grants?
We should think about what we want to put in our first release, whether
we want to consolidate the work we already have and do a quick release
(say in 4 weeks) or whether we want to do something more ambitious.
Before a release could happen, there are a few steps that are needed. Off
the top of my head, these include:
* Licenses of dependencies need to be checked
* NOTICE files need to be created, including dependency details if needed
* License and Incubator discalaimers need checking/adding
* Rat needs to be setup for the project, with appropriate excludes
* Missing license headers (as identified by Rat) need to be resolved
* The release process needs documenting
These things can be a bit of a faff on the first release, but they make
life much much easier going forward, so it's worth tackling them soon (and
they need doing before the first release)
