Mr Coar, please check your facts before implying yet more untrue statements in 
this and other matters. It doesn't suit you to be caught in FUD spreading and 
carrying untruth to your fellow developers here at the ASF.
IMHO, you have broken not only "unspoken principals of the ASF" (which you are 
accusing me of), but what is normally called "human decency" and one of the 
foundations of most societies; "Thou Shall NOT LIE".

I don't know your motives behind this action, and hope it is only a matter of 
"over-excited to prove me wrong" and/or "ignorance to check up your 
statements". 

This is so sad. IMHO, an apology is in order, not to me, but to those who have 
placed their trust and confidence in you to a person of integrity and 
respectability to represent them in this organization.

Cheers
Niclas

So when he carries untruth that would have been very easy for him to check, 
that validates "just correct him", and when I make the disclosure of what I 
believe to be ASF-wide public information, the flamefest and attacks are 
appropriate ??

Apache Community Worldwide -- again

2004-09-27 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hi Community!

http://www.apache.org/~sgala/nightmap.html

I remember this fantastic effort of the "Apache Community"
--- Apache Community Worldwide --- However, unfortunately
it appears that this map has not been updated since
the end of July, 2003.

When I became a committer in apache (last year), I was very
attracted by and interested in such community efforts
created by so many people in apache.org.

--- Apache Community Worldwide ---
is sure to be one of the greatest derivatives of this Apache Community.
You can see the "day and night" activities from various countries
in the world.

I wish this (ACW) to come to life again. Need help?

Cheers,

-- Tetsuya <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Actually - not quite true. The MAP updates; (or at least it should) the
HTML does not. Note that it is only regenerated 2 times an hour for the
shadows and clouds - once every 3 hours for committer locations and once a
day for the list of committer URLs.

Note that recently we also added:


http://wms.asemantics.com/asf/?styles=emotions&VERSION=1.1.0&layers=rawworld,rawday,comloc&width=600&height=300&request=getMap&format=png&bbox=-180,-90,180,90

which gives you a near real time cloudmask. And yes - you can see the
huricanes quite clearly - with a few of the commiter loc's awfully close !

I guess we should make a page;' the options for layers are

rawall2520 rawbluemask rawclouds rawday rawdeepblue rawetopo5 rawgg 
rawmap
rawnight rawnl rawpol rawsw rawveg rawworld rawxerox

Options for styles are emotions, icbm, bluedot, dot, scope, labels, no

Hi,

These are the step by step instructions:
- Checkout the committers CVS module.
- Read /committers/krell/README and /committers/krell/FAQ
- Add your url to /committers/urls.txt

An excerpt from the FAQ:
Q1: I want to get on the map!
A1: Do this:
1. Get a web page you can edit (public/private your choice).
2. Put your lat/long on that page (probably in the header)
   like so:
 
3. Add the url of that page to ../urls.txt
4. Wait till somebody in the know regenerates the map, or
   figure out how to get into the know.

Smart point. Well, what would you say to using [EMAIL PROTECTED]
address (list)?

I am afraid that some new committers (and old ones who have not
been guided properly) would not know the existence of "committers"
module ... etc. etc. The matter is worse, there are many who do not
know this list! This is a chance to evangelize them. :)

I will do the volunteer of notification if needed (and if
there's no one else to volunteer)

P.S. "ICBM howto" is in committers/krell/FAQ .. IIRC.

the only untrue statement that i am aware of having made is that stephen was
omitted from the distribution list.  and i became aware of my mistake this
morning.  yes, indeed, stephen *was* on the distribution, and i gladly withdraw
the statements i made which were predicated on my mistaken assumption, and

they were hidden behind a twisty in my mailer.  that does not excuse my failure

more carefully.)

i don't intend to get into the 'bring me a rock' scenario concerning
who said what when to justify whichever.  all the information is
available in the archives.  i imagine either sam or brian will post
relevant pointers.  if they don't, perhaps i will.  notwithstanding,
there *are* documented incidents leading to the reservation.

that opinion may or may not reflect actual fact.  let us assume for the
moment that it does.  'was not right' is also a matter of opinion.  what
is not a matter of opinion, but is rather a matter of fact, is that niclas
quoted a private message in a public forum without consulting the author.
attempting to raise awareness by defining a hypothetical case, or even an
actual case with the specifics removed, would have been much more acceptable,
although there is a slippery slope.  quoting a private message without
permission isn't acceptable at all.

> Will the actions taken by Niclas in defending the principals of openness

possibly, in terms of roles involving representation or social responsibility.
this sequence *should* have no effect on opinions concerning his technical
ability and contributions.  people are people, however.

i am dismayed that the private message was exposed the way it was.  i am
much more concerned that the individual involved apparently doesn't see
the action as incorrect.  if i felt comfortable that it *did* understand
why it was inappropriate, i personally would be glad to regard the incident
as a one-time mistake arising from misunderstanding or cultural differences,
and most of my concern would evaporate.

Smart point. Well, what would you say to using [EMAIL PROTECTED]
address (list)?
You can't just do that without the committer's consent. They'd have to 
supply their coordinates somewhere and not everyone may want to divulge 
where they are located. For instance, I consciously avoid putting the 
coordinates of my house in the ICBM. I used to have my office in there, 
but now that I work out of my home office I moved the ICBM coordinates 
to the back deck of Sam's Anchor Cafe.

I love the map though. It is a very cool thing.

That might get some additional people on the map. Would it be a good

That would illustrate the fact that we're a global community and be

If you take those URL's and change the image format to RDF or to CSV of
CVSPLAIN (comma separated value) you can get the data out to get yourself
an image map which can be put directly into the HTML (i.e. with an shtml
or something or a crontab) rather than getting a GIF image.

You and the rest of the community have my sincere apology for revealing 
content that I was unaware of had a confidential nature, as I knew the 
readership was already fairly large and that there existed no indication in 
the message about the confidentiality in the matter.

I still maintain my _opinion_ that more transparency would be appreciated.

I am equally dismayed as Ken is, that a flamefest took place, where other 
issues were brought in to the picture. Whether I fuelled those flames or not, 
I am not sure. I really tried not to, and refrained from answering many 
accusations based on that it would not lead anywhere, and only make the 
situation worse. Those are IMHO still just accusations.


Cheers
Niclas

P.S. I prefer not to be called "it"  :o)

i think the point that's missing is "how do new committers (or old

Smart point. Well, what would you say to using [EMAIL PROTECTED]
address (list)?
I am afraid that some new committers (and old ones who have not
been guided properly) would not know the existence of "committers"
module ... etc. etc. The matter is worse, there are many who do not
know this list! This is a chance to evangelize them. :)
I will do the volunteer of notification if needed (and if
there's no one else to volunteer)
P.S. "ICBM howto" is in committers/krell/FAQ .. IIRC.
I know from experience that it took a while for me to become aware of 
the existence of so many "semi-private" lists/resources.  E.g., 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], committers module, 
planetapache.org, etc.

I think it would be good to announce these again.  Perhaps an automatic 
"welcome new committer" email would be best to bring awareness of these 
things to future new committers without bothering old committers.

You can also add [EMAIL PROTECTED]

About [EMAIL PROTECTED] I haven't read anything.
I didn't know about planetapache.org, but now I've found the info :)

I was trying to have it running just before or during the hack-a-thon.
In fact, it was one of my projects for this time. Anybody who wants to

xplanet has the "virtue" of changing the command lines parameters and

Additional features planned was that the bulb would be brighter if the

If people read the dev pages often, they will see that
some of us are gradually updating that area to assist
each other.
http://www.apache.org/dev/

It is up to each PMC to make sure that their people know
