Approach.  

Use struts if you're using JSP
Use Tapestry if you want to attach logic with div tags
As for turbineCheshire cat grin...a lot of people use it with velocity.
Use Cocoon is you live breathe and die XML and don't mind the extreme joy
that comes from writing web pages in XSLT with its user friendly regular
expression-like syntax


Yes struts can use things that aren't JSP but is not OPTIMAL for that.
Tapestry is well pretty different (I make no bones that I like it best for
webapps)
Turbine ...Cheshire cat grin
Cocoon can theoretically be a toaster if you configure it right, but has the
largest learning curve of the 4.

I understand why you came here to ask this, but its not really a good place
to ask (its more of an administrative list).  You'd be better going and
asking each of the projects (who will probably send you links to their
website).  Generally these messages devolve into flamebait because each
project feels very passionate about their approach (enough to devote real
time to developing it in fact) so asking them all in a room together what's
the difference is well...often not pretty.

It seems this is the consensus, to add most committers - one by one or 
ten by ten. Let's go with that for now, almost everyone is agreeing with 
the goal of having everyone who cares included ( I didn't see a vote 
yet, but it seems pretty clear we agree on this ).

I don't like the process of hand-picking either - unfortunatly that's 
the norm in ASF ( membership and all other PMCs use the same mechanism).

I hope after we get past the first stage we can have a  [VOTE] and 
change this to people _volunteering_ for PMC - by sending a mail with
subscribe subject and the list of sub-projects the person is 
volunteering to monitor.

IMO the only way out of this discussion is to divide the problem into 
very small pieces and have real VOTEs and counting of each of them. 
Proposals with more than 1 atom have no chance, and most of the 
problems occur because everyone seems to think he knows what the others 
think without asking.

Please people, write down what you want, separate it in very elementary 
pieces, then post a VOTE and see what the majority things ( it may be 
consensus or a simple majority - but at least you'll know what other 
think ).

Like:

1. Extend the PMC:
- to include all committers ( even if the don't want )
- to include all the comitters who want
- to include all who want and prove they understand the rules
2. Future extension of the PMC:
 - hand-picking by current people
 - people volunteering - because we trust them already to write the code 
and do the work, and it's fair to let them join whenver they want.

3. Jakarta and TLPs
 - 'encourage' every subproject to TLP
 - let each subproject decide if they want to leave jakarta- without 
encouragements
 - 'encourage' only subprojects that have problems
 - do a selection based on some characteristic ( like projects that 
fit togheter - whatever that means)
 - try to keep jakarta togheter and increase the community ( as 
jakarta-commons did ). If someone really wants to go - of course let him.

4. Is jakarta a good thing ?
 - yes, not perfect but we are improving and working better with other 
jakarta people
 - no, it's just a mess
 - yes, other projects should do what jakarta does !

I hate when people keep talking about consensus and argue as if they 
knew what the consensus was, but we don't have even the most elementary 
vote to indicate what a majority thinks.

And BTW - please make sure that the votes explicitely state that all 
_committers_ should vote, but only PMC member votes are binding !!! 
That's why people should volunteer for PMC, however this is about

Re: Extending the PMC ( was: Re: [PROPOSAL] Proactively encourage TLP status)

2004-01-14 Thread Henri Yandell

Currently that doesn't happen. Would be nice if it could, but it just
doesn't fit.

When someone wins a vote, they're invited to join. If they accept, which
they signify by joining the PMC list [the Jakarta Chair moderates it],
then the Jakarta Chair passes their name onto the board and they're meant
to get inked into the committers/board/committee-info.txt file when it's
official.

From the previous batch of 20 or so, there are still 3 people or so who I
didn't hear back from after two email attempts, and the other 17 [made up
numbers] are still not in the committee-info file.

I'm unsure when an announcement to this list would/should happen under the
process above.

The only part that is enforced is the board part, so until someone appears
in committee-info, they're not technically on the PMC. There's a
/committers/pmc/jakarta/pmc-pending.txt file which shows who is currently
waiting addition to the committee-info.

Ideas?

Thanks for the update.

I don't understand why anything but the actual vote needs to be in private. There should probably be 
a public nomination list with reasons for hand picking (if hand picked) and a public results list 
with just a tally, like how JCP does it (http://jcp.org/en/whatsnew/elections). Also this process of 
electing members in batches of 20 or so is time consuming and cumbersome, I think, unless there is a 
valid reason that this list is not aware of.

 I don't understand why anything but the actual vote needs to be in

 There should probably be a public nomination list with reasons for hand
 picking (if hand picked) and a public results list

If you are nominated and not elected people would know.  Otherwise, there is
privacy.  I do agree that when the results are known they could and should
be published.

 Also this process of electing members in batches of 20 or so is time
consuming

The problem is that there are 100s of Commiters, and only a relative handful
of PMC members.  So the PMC members nominated as many people as they knew
from working with.  There are a lot on that list.  Once they are on, I hope
that they will be able to nominate the bulk of the remaining active members.

Time consuming, yes.  Something of an artifact from things getting as out of
hand as they did, so hopefully not something that will need to be repeated.

I don't think so.  We want *everyone* to accept.

Or should I go ahead and publish the list of people who are being
recommended to the board as PMC members [probably a day or so after a
[RESULT] on the pmc list just in case there are arguments over the
results].
Yes - once we get the list complete (based on acceptance)...

Actually, this used to be the place where people could ask questions like this, and 
chat about everything under the Java sun.

A while back, we co-opted the General list for use as the PMC public list. And 
subscribes to General have been falling every since. Less than a third of what they 
once were.

Perhaps once most of the Committers are on the PMC list, we can move the 
administrative nonsense there again, and let the General list be the General list 
again :)

 Yes struts can use things that aren't JSP but is not OPTIMAL for

Thanks to the Velocity Tools,

many people, including myself, find Struts and Velocity to be an optimal combination.

As a side note, Roy just insisted that a vote to release a product from the
Incubator be moved from the PMC list to the general@ list.  I am assuming to
perform that function in public.  Perhaps you'd like a public admin@ list?
