Re: Question about viability for incubation: BinEd Hexadecimal Editor
Hi Miroslav The main question you have to ask yourself is about the potential community around your project (user and dev communities). So, the fact that your project is small or on a specific use case is not really a problem if we can build a community around. Incubation phase is a good place to build your community, grow your project (code, feature, release).

Re: Question about viability for incubation: BinEd Hexadecimal Editor
Just going through the incubation template and listing where you are there will help you. Then you can change your development to match the gaps you identify. You already identified some of those. Do spell them out and put some words towards how you would fix them. You also need a champion for this. > On Nov 3, 2021, at 11:14, Miroslav Hajda wrote: > > Hi all, > I'm considering to try for BinEd hexadecimal editor for incubation / proposal: > > https://bined.exbin.org > > Unfortunately neither code is great nor the applications are stable, and > there are also various other issues: > > - Project is crude / not mature and relatively small library / app > - Project is a niche tool suitable only for limited use cases > - I believe there are some users, but not many > - There is no active community of users or devs using the project > - I'm sole developer slowly progressing the project in my spare time > - Main features are still missing (for example content analysis) > > Project is under Apache license and I hope it might be a fit to the Apache > Way and I would love for the project to grow more beyond what I can provide. > > Another question is if it would be viable under current circumstances to > attempt for incubation or whether it would be preferred to fix things first. > > Maybe I should try this at later date, try to have some start of community as > recommended in cookbook first with people willing to help in different roles > - not sure when / if it will ever happen thou... > > I would be grateful for any input and sorry if it's not proper topic for this > mailing list / wrong place to ask. > > Best regards, > Miroslav Hajda > > - > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org > - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
Question about viability for incubation: BinEd Hexadecimal Editor
Hi all, I'm considering to try for BinEd hexadecimal editor for incubation / proposal: https://bined.exbin.org Unfortunately neither code is great nor the applications are stable, and there are also various other issues: - Project is crude / not mature and relatively small library / app - Project is a niche tool suitable only for limited use cases - I believe there are some users, but not many - There is no active community of users or devs using the project - I'm sole developer slowly progressing the project in my spare time - Main features are still missing (for example content analysis) Project is under Apache license and I hope it might be a fit to the Apache Way and I would love for the project to grow more beyond what I can provide. Another question is if it would be viable under current circumstances to attempt for incubation or whether it would be preferred to fix things first. Maybe I should try this at later date, try to have some start of community as recommended in cookbook first with people willing to help in different roles - not sure when / if it will ever happen thou... I would be grateful for any input and sorry if it's not proper topic for this mailing list / wrong place to ask.
