Re: [draft] SD Magazine: request for change
Noel J. Bergman wrote: Remy Maucherat wrote: it is obvious Apache has the notion of company contributions. Companies authorize individuals where their employment agreement might be in conflict with a CLA, and companies can provide a Software Grant in the case where the existing IP is owned by the company. This applies equally to IBM, Sun, BEA, Gluecode, DevTech, or JBoss. This is an accurate legal description but not really an issue to me. Clarifying the IP flow of company -> committer -> ASF would suggest that we would be ok to say "Tomcat by Apache and lead contributor JBoss via Remy." None of this is new. It has been discussed at length, and is fairly well established. This is a legal distinction having nothing to do with the promotional wording of the Jolt awards. Big +1 to Jolt needing a correction. I don't quite know how to feel JBoss's desire to promote their contributions to the ASF. I'm guessing IBM, Sun, and BEA contribute more to the ASF than JBoss does, but these larger contributions come from companies that do not have a strategic goal of marketing themselves as open source leaders. I think one of the great things about the ASF is that it does allow commercial involvement in their projects. I'd love us to figure out how we ARE comfortable thanking JBoss, IBM, etc.. rather than only reacting when we feel a line is crossed. -- Serge Knystautas Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.

Re: Why use maillists??
J Aaron Farr wrote: Finally, Jakarta did have forums at one time but I don't think they were heavily used: http://issues.apache.org/jive/index.jsp IMO this is the best point. Open source projects get to try dozens of different communication patterns (IM, IRC, NNTP, personal email, Forums, Wikis, mailing lists, phone calls, CVS, bugzilla, etc...). Mailing lists have emerged as the most effective means for open source development. -- Serge Knystautas President Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.

Re: Apache should join the open source java discussion

In lieu of forming a statement for the ASF as a whole, what about organizing/encouraging/guiding people who want to participate? Maybe specific resources that should be targetted, such as where the most active and/or productive discussions are taking place. -- Serge Knystautas President Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.

Re: compressed body in HTTP POST request; using Jabber for IM
Adrian German wrote: The application we are building involves a few hundred (perhaps thousand) devices/stations which are distributed in a fairly large territory (say, the size of Indiana) which act as mini-browsers and send information to a server (to which they connect, authenticate and all that) periodically. Now the line on which they communicate is dial-up (gsm/gprs), so being able to compress the POST requests would keep the costs down. Also, these stations/browsers might be behind a firewall, so the TCP connection can only be initiated from a station to the server and not the other way around. We were thinking of using either Tomcat or JBoss for the server, and it was not clear to us if the server would be able to handle properly a compressed request. If it does it already then maybe we missed it, and we apologize and we'd be very grateful for any pointers. Have you considered sending information using SMTP and zip attachments? You could then use James (http://james.apache.org) to handle the zips and do whatever is appropriate. You would still need a minibrowser for retrieving information, but this might be an efficient way to send data from lots of clients. SMTP is easy for the client, and while James isn't as friendly to develop with as I'd like, it could work. Just a random idea. -- Serge Knystautas President Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.

Noel J. Bergman wrote: Is it my mailer that's making a mess here, or is something else going on? This is the second message I've seen today that is attributed to Ted but was written by someone else (in this case me, in the previous case Stephen) The two messages from "Ted Husted" that concern you contain: Received: from PC15 (roc-24-93-14-71.rochester.rr.com [24.93.14.71]) which appears to match other messages from Ted. My guess is that Ted started to compose a reply and accidentally sent it before doing any edits. I think the confusing message (for me at least) was at 11:17 a.m. EST with message-id [EMAIL PROTECTED] It appears from Ted Husted, but it is a replying and criticizing text apparently from Ted Husted. The text even says, "Ted, you seem to be.." which is very confusing if the message was *from* Ted.

Unfortunately the Hibernate 2.1 release that is due out soon has a pluggable caching architecture and is moving away from JCS as the default, so this publicity opportunity may slip away soon. -- Serge Knystautas President Lokitech >> software . strategy . design >> http://www.lokitech.com p. 301.656.5501 e.
