[Proposal] SuperXMailer

2003-04-01 Thread Andrew C. Oliver
Hi All,

I'm pleased to finally propose the SuperXMailer for Jakarta via the 
incubator.  I'd like for the Jakarta PMC/committers to vote a tacit 
approval of the project before we work on acceptance into the 
incubator.  I'm sure that despite the inevitable controversy, folks will 
see a true value in this project and its active community.  
Unfortunately the source repository and mail archives are down at the 
moment, but I'm sure they'll be restored soon.

Note that there is also something strange with the bug database.  We now 
have email deobfuscation which defeats schemes like 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and such, as well as acoliver at apache 
dot org.  No worries, the mail will be harvested and get through!

Thanks for your consideration.  Please feel free to submit your vote in 
advance.

-Andy

[0] rationale

SuperXMailer, the project hosted at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/superxmailer/ is a tool for harvesting 
email addresses from web pages and mail lists, storing them in any 
database or XML file, and sending them email addresses. It features 
opt-out lists, email verification and much more.

The project is the creation of a number of Apache committers and is run 
as a meritocratic community-developed project.

Presently the CVS repository and mail lists are down (as of 3/30), but 
we have opened up a support request and will have it up again soon. 

[0.1] criteria

Meritocracy:  SuperXMailer follows the Apache meritocracy rules, with a 
core of committers including ASF members.

Community:  SuperXMailer has a modest, but very active community.  Its 
users are very pleased with its performance and capture capabillities.

Core Developers.  SuperXMailer has an active and dedicated team of 
committers.  The project was founded by Andrew C. Oliver, who is 
extremely dedicated to SuperXMailer and authored the majority of the 
codebase.  Nicola Ken Barrozzi and Glen Stampoultzis are frequent 
contributors of components and bug fixes as well as some significant 
extensions.  Sam Ruby has offered to provide Web Services extensions via 
Axis.

Alignment:  SuperXMailer makes use of Lucene, POI, Struts, Velocity, 
Turbine, Xerces, Tomcat and Xalan.

Scope:  SuperXMailer is entirely a server-side application, well aligned 
with the overall goals of the Jakarta project.

[1] scope of subproject

The project shall create and maintain packages written in the Java 
programming language constituting the framework, management tools, 
search/database and mailer, a standard library of additional components, 
documentation, a web site and additional examples.

[2] identify the initial source from which the project is to be populated

The project currently resides on the SourceForge (http://tapestry.sf.net).

[3] identify the Jakarta resources to be created

[3.1] mailing lists(s)

superx-user
superx-dev
[3.2] CVS repositories

jakarta-superx

[3.3] Bugzilla

framework - superx
components - web site, contrib library, documentation, examples
[3.4] Wiki

The SuperXMailer developers would like to make use of the ApacheWiki in 
order to facillitate the admittedly spartan documentation.  However, its 
extremely easy to use.  Many Apache committers have received mail from 
persons using it with great results. 

[4] identify the initial set of committers  (Any Jakarta commmitter is 
welcome to add their name here)

Andrew C. Oliver

Nicola Ken Barrozzi

Glen Stampoultzis

[5] identify apache sponsoring individuals (Any Apache member is welcome 
to add their name here)

Re: XDoclet2@Jakarta and LGPL libraries.

Can you get Mark Wutka to state that his LGPL explicitly permits linking 
and that section 6 of the LGPL does not apply to end users, etc etc?  Is 
he the copyright holder?

If so than you should be good to go (from my understanding).  (As the 
copyright holder he can explicitly address the issues that are of concern)

Hi!

As you might know, the XDoclet team is preparing for Jakarta membership (for

XDoclet 2 needs a DTD parser, and the only decent (actually great) DTD
parser we have found is Mark Wutka's DTDParser
(http://www.wutka.com/dtdparser.html). It's LGPL. I've heard that LGPL is a
no-no for Jakarta projects. Would XDoclet's depending on Wutka's DTDParser
(with its current license) rule out our possibilities for Jakarta
membership?

And we need to work on implementing a CMM process for opensource.   The 
SDLC seems like an excellent way to do that.  If we can get developers 
working along the SDLC, I think we could get a more repeatable 
development process.  Far superior to standard opensource stuff! ;-)

Is this reply FAQ/Wiki'd somewhere?

Seems to me to be a good set of questions to ask of an LGPL project to
cause happiness all around. Assuming it's okay with the powers that be,

 Hi Aslak (and James),
   Sorry I have been so slow with this, but I just put out a DTDParser
 1.21 that has a dual-license. You can either use the old LGPL license or
 an Apache-style license (pretty much cutpaste of the Apache license).
 Let me know if you have any questions, concerns or if I forgot something
 important. The only difference between 1.20 and 1.21 is the licensing
 change.

state did not intend verbal.  I was intending this would be something 
similar to what the classpath folks do.  (which extends the rights in 
the GPL)  In any case, I took this information from a conversation with 
Brian B on the open licensing list.  If this goes further, I'll look the

that was Brian's answer to me.

[0] rationale

SuperXMailer, the project hosted at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/superxmailer/ is a tool for 
harvesting
email addresses from web pages and mail lists, storing them in any
database or XML file, and sending them email addresses. It features
opt-out lists, email verification and much more.

The project is the creation of a number of Apache committers and is 
run
as a meritocratic community-developed project.

Presently the CVS repository and mail lists are down (as of 3/30), 
but
we have opened up a support request and will have it up again soon.

[0.1] criteria

Meritocracy:  SuperXMailer follows the Apache meritocracy rules, 
with a
core of committers including ASF members.

Community:  SuperXMailer has a modest, but very active community.  
Its
users are very pleased with its performance and capture 
capabillities.

Core Developers.  SuperXMailer has an active and dedicated team of
committers.  The project was founded by Andrew C. Oliver, who is
extremely dedicated to SuperXMailer and authored the majority of the
codebase.  Nicola Ken Barrozzi and Glen Stampoultzis are frequent
contributors of components and bug fixes as well as some significant
extensions.  Sam Ruby has offered to provide Web Services extensions 
via
Axis.

Alignment:  SuperXMailer makes use of Lucene, POI, Struts, Velocity,
Turbine, Xerces, Tomcat and Xalan.
Scope:  SuperXMailer is entirely a server-side application, well 
aligned
with the overall goals of the Jakarta project.

[1] scope of subproject

The project shall create and maintain packages written in the Java
programming language constituting the framework, management tools,
search/database and mailer, a standard library of additional 
components,
documentation, a web site and additional examples.

[2] identify the initial source from which the project is to be 
populated

The project currently resides on the SourceForge 
(http://tapestry.sf.net).

[3] identify the Jakarta resources to be created

[3.1] mailing lists(s)

superx-user
superx-dev
[3.2] CVS repositories

jakarta-superx

[3.3] Bugzilla

framework - superx
components - web site, contrib library, documentation, examples
[3.4] Wiki

The SuperXMailer developers would like to make use of the ApacheWiki 
in
order to facillitate the admittedly spartan documentation.  However, 
its
extremely easy to use.  Many Apache committers have received mail 
from
persons using it with great results.

Hi All,

I'm pleased to finally propose the SuperXMailer for Jakarta via the

will
see a true value in this project and its active community.
Unfortunately the source repository and mail archives are down at the

We now
have email deobfuscation which defeats schemes like

Thanks for your consideration.  Please feel free to submit your

Re: [Proposal] SuperXMailer

2003-04-01 Thread Ben Walding
All,

In order to minimise the possibility of brand overloading or brand 
segmentation I propose that we introduce the standard community building 
techniques. 

So to this end I propose the immediate creation of
* a wiki to capture all this valuable discussion
* a set of blogs so that members of the team can interact and display 
their internal thought processes and avoid venting their opinions in a 
non-constructive manner (eg. on irc)

With these community building channels in place, it will only be a 
matter of time before we @ jakarta can say
Let the good code roll

(I see some people are referring to this as a joke?  I fail to see the 
amusing side.  Email harvesting is an important feature that may also 
aid in community building. We can harvest the names of users that have 
referred to jakarta products and then subscribe them (for free - 
initially) to an announcement list). This is called value-adding in 
the commercial world. Some of you communist coding hippies may not have 
heard of this.

Of course there is no value in open source since it is all free. =)
