 Pier.  I've manually approved your e-mails.  Anybody want to voluteer to
 moderate for a while?  Meanwhile, I've added [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the
 allow list for general.
 
 BTW I thought the PMC list was meant to be unmoderated?
 
 Fixed.  And the pending e-mails were approved.

 I can see what Kevin is saying by establishing a 'baseline' though I think
 that getting agreement about what that baseline is will be more discussion
 than it is worth...I think it is easier to simply point at FooProject and say
 that BarProject is going to emulate FooProject...

Good point... I think the Turbine docs are a step towards this.

Having a column, line wrap would be nice though.

Why is the Tomcat so frisky???

2001-12-15 Thread Kevin A. Burton - burtonator


http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/

OK.

What is the deal with that Tomcat logo?

I know it is from the old Tomcat product even while it is back at SUN.

Who was the artist?  Very cool that this was snuck past SUN marketing.

I mean it is a 2D picture correct?  Why does the kat have 3 legs?  

The point is that the 3rd black leg isn't really a leg.. right?

I mean Tomcats are really well known for one thing.  If you have seen one
roaming your neighborhood at 3AM.

Anyway... would be interesting to hear about how this got created.

 Has this been accepted as psuedo standard across Jakarta?

No, each project has it's own coding style. There's no Jakarta wide
standard.

 I agree with 90% of it.
 
 Also... I have noticed that a lot of code isn't formated to column 80.  A lot
 of
 people aren't even trying!  :(
 
 What do people think of this as an addition?

I think allowing each project to define what is acceptable is the way it's
working now and it's probably best to leave it that way.
