RE: [DISCUSS] V4 JPA contribution

2016-12-14 Thread Grande, Oliver
Hello,

Sorry for the late reply, I have been busy the last weeks.

I like to give you an update from my side. I had an discussion here at SAP and 
it turned out that in case my code will not be part of Olingo, so not part of 
an Apache project, it is preferred that it is publish on the SAP public Github 
(http://sap.github.io/). I'm currently in a process to getting a repository.

Regards,
Oliver

Hi,

I noticed the discussion about the JPA processor contribution has died 
down. The contribution was submitted the 24th of August and at this 
point I think adopting an approach is becoming more important than the 
approach itself.


I think a JPA processor is a really important part of using Olingo for a 
lot of people and giving a proper platform for others to contribute to 
it is a vital step.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like Apache GitHub 
integration is currently fairly lackluster. It does not seem to 
seamlessly integrate with a lot of GitHub main features. For example, it 
does not seem to integrate with GitHub issues, which is a big part of 
what makes a GitHub repository "lively". As it stands, you mostly end up 
with a shell of what a GitHub repository should be.



With that in mind, contributors would probably have to get familiar with 
the jira issues and the ASF repository overall. If you add that to the 
fact that contributors would also have to sign an ICLA, I think this 
would deter a lot of potential small contributors. Also, it could be 
confusing to have an Alpha under Olingo that is not officially supported 
or that might be dropped at any time.


Personally, I think either :

- Put it on the GitHub repo and wait for the project to reach an 
adequate maturity. (Maybe have some kind of link or encouragement from

Hi all,

I would like to reanimate this discussion. I have been trying to find
information about having an Repository which is not under Apache control
as part of an Apache project but I could not find any useful information
about this.
In my personal opinion we should not use the GitHub repository because as
an Apache project we should rely on Apache infrastructure. This allows all
Olingo PMC members to have committing rights and prevents a single person
from having to provide/own the GitHub repository.
Also I would see this as a good way to attract users/contributers to Olingo
which we might miss if the connection between the GitHub repository and
the Apache Olingo project isn`t clear.
Also in my opinion we would not lose anything by providing an Alpha version
via Olingo. If there is no feedback or contributions coming we can still
decide not to take this forward. This would also mean that the current
Olingo PMC members do not have to provide support for the Alpha version.

Here is a link on the Apache to GitHub features:
https://reference.apache.org/pmc/github for those interested. These
features could be useful to integrate the GitHub mirror more.

Please consider the points above and let me know what you think!

I have already expressed my preference below: a GIT repository, hosted
at the ASF infrastructure, with full-fledged GitHub integration.
We will not loose anything about attracting extra-ASF contribution, but
as PMC we will retain control over the repository itself.

Obviously, this will require contributors to sign an ICLA, but I urge to
remind that this is the one of the pillars of how The ASF works.

If this is seen as too onerous and discouraging new contributors, then
simply The ASF is not the right place to be and the V4 JPA effort should
better find its home as one of the numerous github-homed open source
projects in the wild.
With no official relationship with the Apache Olingo PMC, naturally.

I have already expressed my preference below: a GIT repository, hosted 
at the ASF infrastructure, with full-fledged GitHub integration.
We will not loose anything about attracting extra-ASF contribution, but 
as PMC we will retain control over the repository itself.


Obviously, this will require contributors to sign an ICLA, but I urge to 
remind that this is the one of the pillars of how The ASF works.


If this is seen as too onerous and discouraging new contributors, then 
simply The ASF is not the right place to be and the V4 JPA effort should 
better find its home as one of the numerous github-homed open source 
projects in the wild.

With no official relationship with the Apache Olingo PMC, naturally.

Hi,

Has anyone officially been in contact with Oliver Grande since his 
contribution? I know he is active on the user list, but I think it would 
be nice to have his opinion regarding all of this.



I personally think creating a github repo and giving access to Oliver 
Grande is indeed a good idea. If the ASF repo is not used, I still think 
it would be nice to keep some kind of link with the main Olingo project 
to let users know that the "main Olingo team" encourages contribution to 
this JPA processor. Currently there is "odata4-JPA" listed as a Olingo 
component, which leads to a summary with the POC jira items. Just an 
idea, but would it be possible to delete the POC jira items and maybe 
have that "odata4-JPA" summary link to the JPA processor potential 
github repo?

This is a valid point. If we put this code into an ASF repository the Olingo 
project as a whole is somewhat responsible for this code. This risk could be 
reduced by making the contributor Oliver Grande an Olingo committer so he could 
keep working on the code. He also started answering mails on the users list 
already so he seems committed. Of course adding another committer would require 
a  vote on the private mailing list and requires the consent of the Olingo 
project.

We could also think about giving commit access to the separate Git repository 
more freely to users that ask for it. This might also be an incentive for more 
contributions. I think it is possible to give commit access only to the new 
repository while leaving the core repo alone.
We could also ask for volunteers on the user mailing list while clearly stating 
that we won`t accept this contribution to Olingo if there are not enough users 
that promise to contribute. Having an Alpha release could also help identify 
potential committers. And I don`t think that an Alpha release would require 
maintenance from the current Olingo PMC/committers.

IMO, at least there are two reasons for me
- Working with ASF repository is cumbersome than the Github. Meaning working 
with external pull requests, code review features etc. I wish Olingo repo was 
on GitHub, instead of using the mirror.
- second, most important is these are not part of ASF (yet), Olingo by 
including these in their repository comes with certain amount of 
responsibilities from committers, about their completeness, correctness, 
documents and management. Unless these are reasonably proved by the external 
community effort, Olingo committers are on hook to maintain these as if they 
were part of Olingo repo. So, my suggestion is wait until that time, then we 
can take vote to include with Olingo repo. If you are thinking outside of 
Olingo, then that need to be approached as new Apache project, that probably is 
completely separate effort.

Hi all,

With Olingo Issue 1010
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-1010)
we got a big contribution for the V4 Olingo code line. I personally think
this is great and we should integrate this into the Olingo project. The
main question I have how this could be done best.
   From the V2 JPA extension we learned that the inability to make JPA
   releases independent from the core library hurts the development
   process.
   Also a lot of feedback was centered around extending the JPA processor

   met. Any feedback here is welcome.

For first steps I would suggest:

-  Delete the POC JPA Jira Items as they are not needed anymore

-  Integrate the code into our repository in a branch so everyone
can look at the code

-  Decide on a repository

-  Decide on a releas

RE: [DISCUSS] V4 JPA contribution

2016-09-21 Thread Amend, Christian
This is a valid point. If we put this code into an ASF repository the Olingo 
project as a whole is somewhat responsible for this code. This risk could be 
reduced by making the contributor Oliver Grande an Olingo committer so he could 
keep working on the code. He also started answering mails on the users list 
already so he seems committed. Of course adding another committer would require 
a  vote on the private mailing list and requires the consent of the Olingo 
project.

We could also think about giving commit access to the separate Git repository 
more freely to users that ask for it. This might also be an incentive for more 
contributions. I think it is possible to give commit access only to the new 
repository while leaving the core repo alone.
We could also ask for volunteers on the user mailing list while clearly stating 
that we won`t accept this contribution to Olingo if there are not enough users 
that promise to contribute. Having an Alpha release could also help identify 
potential committers. And I don`t think that an Alpha release would require 
maintenance from the current Olingo PMC/committers.

As for being cumbersome to work with the Apache repositories I agree. But I 
also heard that Apache is working on a tighter integration with the GitHub 
mirror. I am not sure how far this has progressed. Do you know anything about 
this?

RE: [DISCUSS] V4 JPA contribution

2016-09-21 Thread Amend, Christian
This GitHub repository was a first start to encourage users to start an 
implementation if I remember correctly. If we want to host the contribution as 
part of Apache Olingo then a simple Github repository is not the way to go 
IMHO. We should request an ASF repository.

But I like the idea of having a separate repository for this.
