Hello Petar,
please start vote threads for voting on proposals, not to
initiate a discussion. I've seen it mentioned that Jakarta
is way too vote-happy.
There was some discussion of the idea on this mailing list
more than a year ago, see the threads at [1], [2].
The key items I remember are:
- Umbrella projects are not well received by the board.
- Testing is a category, not a project scope. [3]
To avoid re-iterating the same arguments again, I suggest
the following steps:
1) everyone read through the old discussions
2) define a project scope that includes JMeter and Cactus,
but preferably no existing TLP or large subproject
3) choose a project name that is not a category
4) go TLP and show that the project works
Once the new project is up and running, it is still time to
attract other subprojects, or to adjust the project scope.
I've made suggestions for 2 just before the previous
discussion ceased.[4] There were also some name suggestions.
cheers,
Roland
