Re: [site] Kill the vendor support page
Well, there's not many people on it. I'd solicit their opinion. Do they actually get business from this page? If not, then definitely kill it. If such people do get business from this page, I'm less certain. Specifically, if the vendors are Jakarta committers, and they find the pages useful, we should consider keeping it. People donate lots of time to Jakarta and open source. It seems a good cause to help them bring in more consulting work, and low harm to Jakarta for sponsoring a page on such a very non-commercial site.

[site] Kill the vendor support page
As per the previous email, I'd like to raise the question of killing the vendor support page. With Tomcat moving to TLP, there's even less Jakarta support here than before. Mainly it's Ant, Struts, Log4j, Tomcat and HTTP Server. Alternatively, we could attempt to make it a Java support page for Apache products, or even talk to someone - probably the board, maybe prc - about having an Apache version of this. However, I think that doing it ourselves is probably outside our scope and I suspect there won't be a huge amount of interest Apache-wide to having such a database of vendors. Any thoughts?

Re: Add Xythos Software to Specialized Solution Provider
Sorry to bounce you over to another list Melissa, but Tomcat is no longer in Jakarta. You could try mailing their list (dev@tomcat.apache.org), but bear in mind that they don't have a vendor support page. In fact, now that Tomcat has moved to tomcat.apache.org, the Vendor support page has less and less relevance to the existing community. Time for me to ask the community if we can kill that page :) It's possible consensus may be to keep the existing page and add your link; ie) we'll make it a [EMAIL PROTECTED] vendor support page.

There were at least 3 +1's from PMC members on the Tapestry list, so this thread (and the similar one on pmc@) are really about whether anyone has a -1. If nothing comes up in 72 hours, Howard can then mail the board with the request (ccing the pmc). As Howard just said, we've not got anything set in stone, and given that even we don't do the TLP bit that often, I figure we can just continue to bumble through each time :) Mostly it seems important that the subproject have written a proposal, the PMC members involved are +1 and the community at large has had a chance to -1.

Re: [RESULT] Tapestry TLP
Nobody is very sure of the protocol here. I suspect that if someone felt strongly enough, they could start a vote to prevent the Tapestry team from submitting the request to the Apache board. I'm -1 on that!
