 Hello Henri,

 Maybe that's the wrong page for these info... .

not wrong probably just a little confusing

the jakarta commons charter encapsulates the opinions of the jakarta pmc
at that particular moment in time.

Hello Henri,

I was looking to these page :

Maybe that's the wrong page for these info... .

Hi Jan,

Which page are you looking at?

The current charter is at: 
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/management.html and doesn't contain the 
text you're quoting.

Hello everyone,

I am currently discussing the Jakarta project charter and have a few 
questions about the structure of the whole jakarta-subproject-package 
system. I am a bit confused about the terminology used in the charter. :

Apache-Java and Jakarta originally hosted product-based subprojects, 
consisting of one major deliverable. The Java language however is 
package-based, and most of these products have many usefull 
utilities. Some products are beginning to break these out so that 
they can be used independently. A Jakarta subproject to solely create 
and maintain independent packages is proposed to accelerate and guide 
this process

My questions about this :

1) The jakarta project has subprojects and each subproject consists 
of different java-packages. Originally these packages hava one major 
deliverable but due to the package-based system they have now many 
usefull utilities. Is that correct ?


2) Some products are beginning to break...  : Do they mean a 
'subproject' is breaking out or a 'package' is breaking out ?


3) I don't understand the last sentence, is there a sepparate 
subproject with a controlling function over the different packages 
from other subprojects? If so, is that subproject the 'Apache 
Incubator' project ?


Thanks in advance,
