Re: [VOTE] Commons moving to TLP

2007-05-14 Thread Davanum Srinivas

Should it be commons4j.apache.org? (j = java or jakarta)? am not
worried about the java package name...

thanks,

My preference is for a java-only commons.apache.org. I don't see that as scary 
or unreasonable. My +1 is based on that assumption.

Also, from a practical matter, our projects already use org.apache.commons, so 
this is already recognised in the ASF.

From: Martin van den Bemt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

If moving commons TLP is just a "twisted" (maybe a bad choice of a word) way to 
come back to
jakarta.apache.org in the end, I am -1 on the TLP move..

We currently have 2 projects moving TLP (Turbine and POI) and after that we 
need to start thinking
about every other project at Jakarta.

So if the goals is to make commons Jakarta, we should aim for that, instead of 
artificially trying
to accomplish that.

If I am not mistaken the real goals/questions are :

- Fix oversight issues
- Be more transparent for the board
- Move towards a community with the same focus (= eg reusable java components)
- Be able to say in one sentence what Jakarta is about (is consequence of above)
- See where we can fit project that are in maintenance mode or not actively 
supported anymore.
- How to handle projects that don't fit well within the new focus, but work 
pretty well as part of
Jakarta (are people waiting for being on eg 15 PMC's to be able to support 
these projects)
- And Apache wide : is there only a place for projects that have a "healthy" 
community ?

Mvgr,
Martin

Re: POI TLP -- constructively

2006-12-18 Thread Davanum Srinivas

+1. take a break :)

On 12/18/06, Andrew C. Oliver <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I really liked hearing Avik speak up because he's been hurting for
awhile and not spoken up.  It was Nick's first release, cut him some
slack.  POI has been around since 2001, in Apache since 2002.  It is
nearly 2007.  Talks of mentoring us or incubating us are a little
patronizing and insulting (multiple of us our even members of the
foundation though I forget who).  Much of the thread is about bashing us
and bashing me in particular which I stupidly reacted to partly out of
fatigue.  I appologize for that, I've been very busy launching
http://buni.org and planning our corporate structure.

It is fair to say that not many POI people participate in Jakarta.
However, to add perspective we never joined the "Jakarta as it is" -- we
joined Jakarta as it was...and one day this formed around us.  It is
fair to criticize our build...it is pretty rusty and yucky.  I do
however thing focusing too much on it is a bit well...mean.  Nick has
been doing a great job and a lot of work.  (I on the other hand will
have to merge my patches into SVN before I can even commit them since
they're off of CVS :-P ).  However it was his first release.  Moreover,
Apache's "release policies" have evolved considerably since the last
official release and none of us have a valid signed key...that needs to
be rectified (laziness, don't like conventions where all the cool key
signing parties).  We're not the only one's guilty of kinds of neglect.
Our own Marc Johnson (who cofounded the project) has been extremely
frustrated at the lack of responsiveness in getting his access/etc in
order and no one at POI seems to be able to jerk the right chain in
Apache to make that happen (and I think he requested from this PMC with
no effect).  So much that he's given up!

In any case, legal issues aside (which have to a good degree abated, but
take yourself back 5 years) I really don't want POI to really merge into
Jakarta (which is really now the successor to Jakarta Commons) and I
don't think the majority of the committers do either.  On the other
hand, I really don't think POI by itself can be a TLP as its scope is
too narrow (historically this was deliberate).  I also don't think that
parts of POI have much of a future as we're moving to an XML formats
era, but other parts certainly do.  Partly because of projects like POI,
Microsoft is even moving.  Once the default is to save in an XML format
then will anyone really care about POI "as it is" as more than a
migration tool.

That being said, there is considerable interest in unified APIs for each
of these verticals (spreadsheets, documents, etc) and considerable life
in POI with a very active userbase.  Many people dealing with data
formats have asked for common APIs for the various verticals that output
to the various formats.  Moreover, many of us are no longer as single
minded with regards to Java as we once were (POI ruby for example).  And
achieving API compatibility across these could be interesting.

I therefore propose this:

* Jakarta PMC has the responsibility to not call more votes on
restructuring POI during the next X months.  (Access or otherwise)

* POI committers have responsibility for achieving the proper oversight
procedures and putting out a new release in the next X months

* POI committers have responsibility for putting together a TLP proposal
and working out a consensus.

(BTW that pretty much is batting 1000 on this:
http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta/JakartaPMCRequestTLPBenchmark)

Full disclosure:

I've also submitted a counter proposal to the committers as an
alternative to leave apache entirely.  However thus far most folks seem
to value POIs association with Apache and the opportunities afforded
them, even if they find it "difficult to work with" as one person stated
in response.  I suspect TLP status would alleviate some of the mutual
snags between apache and POI (for one we could get poor Marc his access
back despite him having sent in his CLA now like 3 times including when
the project moved to Apache and for two we'd be sending our reports in
ourselves and thus have to do more proper oversight).

However, PLLEEAASS let's press the PAUSE button
until January 3rd so that we can all get very drunk and open presents
rather than jerk each other's chains in front of a computer on a mailing
list.

The above file is missing the eol-style property.

Briefly, an incompatibility with the jsr-77 spec was fixed a long

provided a patch that appears to fix it.

We're getting the Geronimo 1.1 release ready and would really like to
use an officially released jar of commons-modeler rather than having
to  copy the code into geronimo svn and produce a custom jar from
that.  Could anyone take a look at the patch, apply it if it appears
OK, and work on getting a 1.2 release of commons-modeler out?

Re: Jakarta Apache Tomcat as a TLP ?

2005-03-21 Thread Davanum Srinivas
Yes, Noel. i have the same feeling that Stephen has:

"it seems likely (based on emails to the thread from Tomcat
committers) that this PR release would have been a non-issue. "

So the tomcat committers would be doing it on their own terms. with no
one pushing them. Quote from Mladen's email:

"so many Chairmans and Directors with opposite statements"

Quote from Costin's email makes me think that they are ready for it:

"If tomcat would be a top level project instead of jakarta-tomcat,
most likely Remy would be the PMC chair. Acording to ASF rules, the
PMC chair is the ultimate decision maker for a project."

And i love the quote from Remy:

""more code, less politics"

So i'd say what is the benchmark for TLP? If the tomcat committers
want it and show the will to do it. Why not?

The only question in my mind is do they want it?

dims

Re: Jakarta Apache Tomcat as a TLP ?

2005-03-21 Thread Davanum Srinivas
Pros:
- Tomcat pmc will be responsible for all its actions and decisions
- Report directly to board every quarter
- No meddling from outsiders (jakarta-general folks and others (read
jakarta pmc) from the peanut gallery :)
- Top Level domain - http://tomcat.apache.org/
- One of pmc members can become a VP 
- Tomcat committers (via pmc) will have full control over all affairs
including what to name the thingy :)

Cons:
- Can't think of any off the top of my head.

Re: [draft] SD Magazine: request for change

2005-03-20 Thread Davanum Srinivas
Tim,

AFAIK, Neither the Apache Board nor the Jakarta PMC has engaged JBoss
or taken a stand on the situation. Whereas folks top down in JBoss
have consistently sang the same tune. I personally faced this
situation at WS-Edge 2005
(http://www.sys-con.com/story/?storyid=46047) when Marc brought this
up in a public forum (and me and geir remained silent on the issue).

So, in your opinion, the Apache Board and Jakarta PMC should stay out
of this *AS USUAL* (Please note that as individuals people can do what
they want and the Board nor the PMC has any control). Right?

Rémy,

You will probably need to resend the CCLA...i can't find in the
regular location where ccla's are recorded.

- Can u please explain what you mean by "current attitude"? 
- Are u saying that Tomcat is *NOT* really "Apache Tomcat"?
- Are you saying that we need to formalize a mechanism to figure out
which company is a leading contributor to a certain project?

thanks,
dims

PS: Remember, i was with you last time there was a blow up about
certain contributions to Tomcat.

Re: Leading Contributor?

2005-03-19 Thread Davanum Srinivas
Tim,

This is a *VERY* slippery slope. All of us are committers at Apache on
a personal basis and our employment is no bearing on our committer
status. Remember, they (or anyone for that matter) else can fork
Tomcat (and call it by any name they want and do whatever they want)
if they crave publicity. IF they want to do joint publicity, they can
of course contact the prc and make as much press releases to their
heart's content. This is not the right way to do it.

criticism, patches,
contributions etc :)

Thanks,
dims
