Hi,
wrong list, try the tomcat mail lists instead:

calendar splitting (was Re: ECS?? _TOP_ level project of Jakarta??)

Good point, I would accept that place as a home for the back end
objects. Possibly split
iCalendar between JAMES and Jetspeed or make it its own module that
plugs in to either.
Front end - Jetspeed, Back end JAMES. I would like to see Apache create
an Exchange killer, but that talk is premature :).

Maybe too late to jump in here, but I see it today :(

I think the best thing to do would be to have a standalone calendar 
backend, communicating with James as transport, and with Jetspeed (and 
also beans for Velocity and even JSP), for server side front end. An 
applet could do a client side processor if this is wanted/needed.

Jetspeed can do with a calendaring portlet (which is not written, BTW), 
that could take calendar objects using whichever transport

It makes more sense to home the calendar project in James, IMO, than in 
Jetspeed, specially now that standard wars will begin ;) But I think 
Jetspeed people will not opose to have you there either.

I will present myself also. I'm Santiago Gala, working in Jetspeed. I 
decided that I was too misinformed about apache stuff and I have decided 
to subscribe (not read in archives) to force myself to read general 
apache related lists. Being the typical bottom-up person, I start with 
jakarta-general. :)

Hi to all,
Santiago

Avalon Excalibur 4.1 Released
-
  The Avalon team is proud to announce the 4.1 final
  release of the Avalon Excalibur.

About Avalon

  The Avalon project is Apache's Java Server Framework.
  It is separated into five sub projects: Framework,
  Excalibur, LogKit, Cornerstone, and Phoenix. Its
  purpose is to simplify server side programming for
  Java based projects. It formalizes serveral best
  of breed practices and patterns for server side programming.

For more information about Avalon, please go to
http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon

About Avalon Excalibur 4.1
--
  Avalon Excalibur contains several premade Avalon
  Components and utilities to make your server side
  programming easier. There are several pool implementations,
  Component management implementations, and database
  management implementations.

For more information about Avalon Excalibur 4.1, please go to
http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur

ChangeLog for Avalon Excalibur 4.1

*)  Initial port of Cocoon's Source resolvers and XML
  parsers [CZ]

*)  Added many fixes to the XML Resource Bundles and Resource
  Bundle access code. [NP]

*)  Update the extension management code and make it
  more robust. [PD]

*)  Add new Container abstraction to separate ComponentManager
  from Container code (i.e. ExcaliburComponentManager
  violates this). The new ContainerManager and Container
  abstraction make the system much easier to manage. [BL]

*)  Add new CommandManager architecture to manage all
  asynchronous commands and the ThreadManager architecture
  to manage the thread allocation policy for the CommandManager. [BL]

*)  New component to handle automatic XML Catalog resolution. [DP]

*)  Many improvements to the cache component. Extended
  cache validation support, multiple store backends,
  and more. [EP]

*)  Add an XPathProcessor abstraction Component with
  ThreadSafe implementations for Jaxen and Xalan
  backed XPath processors. [JT]

*)  Made automatic proxy code even more robust. [PD]

*)  Add support for recursive property resolution.
  Added appropriate unit test to accompany feature. [PD]

*)  Optimized pool implementations, and provided a
  new abstraction for managed pools (in scratchpad). [BL]

*)  Add many new LogTargetFactories to LogKitManager. [GP]

*)  Add new LoggerManager abstraction that works with
  the new framework Logger abstractions. [BL]

*)  Fixed some classloader issues in the i18n package
  for loading resources. Also fixed some i18n related
  issues in FileUtil and IOUtil. [PD]

*)  Applied many optimizations and logic fixes to DataSourceComponent
  code. [LM]

*)  Applied fixes to ReadWriteLock from Avi Drissman
  ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [BL]

*)  Officially deprecate Lock in favor of Mutex. They
  have the same purpose, and Mutex is more correct. [BL]

*)  Optimize logging calls throughout components.
  Also, make the log messages more informative. [BL]

*)  ListUtils now checks for duplicates when merging
  Lists. [PD]

*)  Make BinaryHeap and PriorityQueue use Objects instead
  of Comparables. Optimize BinaryHeap code. [PD]

*)  Add new Buffer classes to the collections package.
  These are amazingly performant. It is based on CircularBuffer,
  which is now deprecated. [BL]

*)  Shake out some more performance of CLI Util, as well
  as better support for DUPLICATES_ALLOWED. [BL]

*)  Added some build improvements. [LM]

*)  Add new profiler instrumentation interfaces inspired
  by Matt Welsh's SEDA architecture. [BL]

*)  Add new asynchronous event queue system inspired
  by Matt Welsh's SEDA architecture. [BL]

*)  Update all the components to the new LogEnabled interface. [BL]

As a James commiter I can see this as being a sensible route, James exposes
the Mailet API which would provide hooks into the mail system for icalendar,
or indeed any other mail oriented application.

Announcement: JakartaPMC elections for 2002

2002-01-30 Thread Dirk-Willem van Gulik

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Folks,

It is time for the yearly election of the Jakarta PMC by the
committers of Jakarta.

For a background - please take some time to read:

http://jakarta.apache.org/site/management.html

The Project Management Committee (PMC) was formed by the
Apache Board in September 1999. The number of PMC seats is
set at seven.

Annually, all seven seats will be up for renewal. The ASF
board will be asked to provide a person or persons to
administer the nominations and a subsequent ballot.

The administrator(s) will determine the mechanics of
the voting procedures. Any committer to any Jakarta code
base will be eligible to vote.

Once the new PMC is in place, the first order of business
will be to determine a chairperson from amongst their ranks.

The list of current members can be found in our Project Credits.

Scedule:

0:00 GMT  - 2002-2-7Nominations close
0:00 GMT  - 2002-2-9Publication of candidate list.
0:00 GMT  - 2002-2-9Publication of voter's list.
0:00 GMT  - 2002-2-12   Candidate list final and announced.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
*[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and
an individual message to all people with commit

T+7 Nominations for PMC needs to be in by 0:00 GMT 7th of
February 2001. You can either nominate yourself - or
nominate someone else. What counts is the confirmation
from the nominee being received.

-  Posting a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with your candidature, a short
description about who you are, what you want to
accomplish.

-  Or if you are volunteered by someone else - a similar
message confirming that you are accepting the
nomination - with again - some details about yourself.

-  PMC seats are open to anyone. Regardless as to
wether you are a committer, lurker or coder. And
you can even nominate a complete outsider (assuming
he or she would consent of course.)

T+9 On the 9th of February we will send out a list of candidates to
general@.

You then have exactly 48hrs to complain about omissions,
mistakes, etc.

T+9 On the 9th of February we will email out a list of all the
committers eligible to vote to general@, *-dev, members@ and
all commiters individually.

Check that you are on that list.

Otherwise you will not get to have your vote counted.

Your @apache.org address will be used.

T+12Final list of committers eligible to vote compiled
and published to general@.

T+12Final list of candidates compiled and published
to general@.

T+12On the 12th of February we will send each committer and
general@ a ballot form.

The ballot will contain the names of each candidate and the
short description they have provided.

Please return this to us on the address

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

before the 19th of February.

Voting Rules:

- You have seven votes.
- A ballot with no votes is invalid.

- If you do not use all seven votes - the remainder of
  the votes will be counted as abstained.
- Returned ballots which are unreadable are invalid.

Reminder: your vote does not have to be cast in public and
for the truly paranoid - pgp keys for the voting volunteers
mentioned above. Regardless of encryption: your vote will
go on record in the clear with the ASF and ASF records are
subject to the usual provisions for US corporations and
board control.

My only issue and I guess this is directed more at you Jon, is it
doesn't give me a clear idea about what we want.  Can you give me a
good idea and I'll be glad to submit a patch to that effect.  It just
seems like we should be asking for something and being specific.

 project are unsurpassed, with response times in minutes. He is always
 open to suggestions by other developers (and non-developers) and is
 willing to sacrifice a lot of his own time to improve the projects he is

That is a very good point. However, privately, Sun knows exactly what we
want.

There is still some stuff that goes on behind the scenes around here that
unfortunately isn't exposed. Needless to say, discussions about opening some
of that up (including posting what we want to the public site) are going on
now.

This is fun.

p.s. The spec lead for JSR107 had a nice response to my complaints about the
license issues for that JSR. It went something like this:

 As for the license, I can find no mention of Oracle requesting any money
 for anything.  I seriously doubt if this license is significantly
 different than licenses for JSP's sponsored by other companies.

Uh. Yea. Whatever dude.

PMC Nomination

2002-01-30 Thread Conor MacNeill

Hi,

I would like to nominate Diane Holt for the PMC. Diane is a current PMC
member and a committer on the Ant subproject. I think Diane brings a
somewhat different perspective from the typical hardcore developer types
here at Jakarta. I think that balance would be a good thing for the PMC.

[PATCH] /home/cvs/jakarta-site2/xdocs/stylesheets/project.xml,v

Regarding subcategorizing the leftnav:

Okay, I'm showing ya'll this cause I said I'd do it but I don't want to
apply it cause I think it looks really crappy.

I don't yet know enough about velocity to try creating a submenu type
entity with a smaller font but I'm not so sure this could look good any
way you slice it.  Anyhow whoever said it, it was a good idea, but it
looks ugly.  Here is the patch for the interested:

 For starters:
 I think the J2EE stuff should be under at least the same license as the
 rest of the JDK.

I think it is - or at least it used to be? The J2EE trademark is protected as 
much as the Java trademark is - in some ways less in some ways more.  Ask Sun 
whether you can have an opensource java impl and they will say no because we 
haven't revealed it all. The differenceis that J2EE also has significantly 
more IP tied up in it that would possibly make it a difficult proposition to 
cleanly rewrite - though this is the same with some parts of core java 
classes (ie RMI and friends).

 In truth J2EE is kind of a scam.  It claims to be aiming for
 compatibility and universality but the truth is the vendors play too big
 of a role in it.  They want to have lots of room for proprietary
 extensions.  Its market one thing but actually sell another.

Isn't that the best way to advance technology? Leave room for vendors to play 
and when the vendors have played with a feature long enough, merge the best 
ideas together and develope a spec. It was a lot worse in past but with 
auxilliary APIs/JSRs like deployment and management APIs coming out.
