Hiram, Could you please make sure that the project gets worked on here at Apache? Am a bit concerned about code getting forked out and then becoming geronimo becoming a dependency on an external project. If activeio folks want to come here and join forces with trifork folks, that would be ideal

That's a possibility. I would not mind bringing the project into apache if it will help grow the community. But I think the first step is to see if activeio is the kind of think that new Trifork orb is interested in. Regards, Hiram On Jul 7, 2005, at 12:16 PM, Davanum Srinivas wrote:

I'm sorry Jeff. It is a good idea to solicit ideas here. What I was thinking was to start it off inside Geronimo. As it's popularity grew, we could transition it to a sub-project; I don't think sub-projects are evil. When it becomes a wildly popular project, we can spin it out as a TLP.
