Re: [PROPOSAL] Stonehenge
Robert sounds like a worthwhile initiative Thanks for the feedback! i like the idea but i do wonder a little whether the practical scope of the project needs some more rounding out I agree it would make sense to help tie down what would make this a successful project, release, etc. Any thoughts on how to make this more concrete? AFAICT (hopefully the committers will jump in and correct any misunderstandings) the project seems likely to consist of independent products, each (ideally) corresponding to a suite of applications target described by a sort-of-specification. Yes. the scope's really pretty broad so i think a little more detail about scaling out would be useful: how would stonehenge approach adding new suites especially when donated from outside the developers group? I guess I imagined that there would be two approaches. One is that someone might develop this outside of Stonehenge and then do a grant. However, I would expect a more likely approach is that someone would contribute via the normal JIRA / patch process. Do you see any issues with either of these?

I actually expect that the way a true community will form around this project is when the next application is something that is born out of Stonehenge itself .. that is, someone proposes an idea and then we discuss it, refine it, develop an architecture, document it and implement it in 17 different ways. In that case there could be external contribs and JIRA/patch contribs too but most would be by project committers directly writing the code.

Fwd: [VOTE] Release Apache UIMACPP-2.2.2-incubating
Hi, The UIMA-CPP 2.2.2-incubating release, which is the first release of the part of UIMA that supports C++ components, is waiting for a couple of more IPMC votes to approve its release. The original email to this list (attached below and also here: http://markmail.org/message/meropdoa4vmsmeut) asking for review and voting is dated Sept 16, so it's been awhile. Could a couple of other IPMC members please vote on this release?

The release artifacts and the annotated RAT reports can be found here: http://people.apache.org/~eae/uimacpp-release-candidates/2.2.2/03/ UIMACPP makes it easy to create UIMA-compliant component from C++ analytics. This is extremely important for multimodal analytics such as speech-to-text, machine translation, image analysis, and many others. As a C++ library, UIMACPP also enables creating UIMA compliant components in other programming languages which easily link to C++. Included in this release is support for Perl, Python and Tcl via a common SWIG wrapper. UIMACPP utilizes several other Apache projects: APR, Xerces-c and ActiveMQ-CPP. Another, and final dependency, is ICU4C from icu-project.org. An official release of UIMACPP was delayed until a mechanism was in place to run C++ analytics as native processes; UIMA-AS has finally provided that mechanism. Previously, UIMACPP analytics had to be run under a JVM process through the JNI, which put many restrictions on operability. The UIMA project dev-list vote to release UIMACPP was 6 +1's, and no other votes; see the vote here: http://markmail.org/message/dmf2wk6zzq7dlsft Many thanks for your support, Eddie Epstein - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What we need is someone in the incubator group to add the directory. I _think_ all Incubator committers can be in that group, judging by the people who are already in that group.

Qpid Graduation - for top level (resolution)
It is with the support of our mentors and a community vote on our dev list that Qpid would like to proceed to graduation. In our last graduation vote the incubator PMC felt that the Qpid project should increase its diversity. Over the intervening months Qpid has added more independents to the project PPMC, bringing the diversity to 7 legally independent parties (not counting those mentors who will stay on to help advise). Qpid also continues to attract more contributors, so the committer pool and diversity should continue to expand as contributors are voted in as committers. Qpid has also made an additional release since the last graduation attempt and is currently working through close down of the next release. Attached is the graduation resolution, which was critiqued (/bashed :-) on the general list on our last graduation attempt with updated would be PMC... Please review our resolution, and provide any feedback or questions before a vote is started on the general list to graduate Qpid as a top level project many thanks. --- WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best interests of the Foundation and consistent with the Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management Committee charged with the creation and maintenance of open-source software related to distributed messaging, for distribution at no charge to the public.
