I've done for myself these above (2-4).

But I have a trouble using WinCVS,

I noticed I succeeded in the commitment, but
there seems no footprints (I mean, the e-mail "cvs:commit" .. mail
from [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

It seems that WinCVS uses
e.g.
'cvs -z9 commit -m "Fixed the older Jmeter download version"
sourceindex.xml binindex.xml'

then messages were...

Messaeges---
Checking in sourceindex.xml;

when commit.

If any committers using winCVS know about this issue, please let me know.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.


P.S. This might be a memorial 100th mail to apache-world for me
as well as the first mail using .apache.org account.  ;-)

2003-06-06 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hello,

It seems that there was no objections, opinions etc.  for this.
So, I'll make this within 36 hours.
(In holiday, taking in consideration of the social effects ;-)

Sincerely,

Tetsuya.

Re: New Top page

2003-06-06 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hello, Danny and All,


Thank you for your opinion. ("Opinions keep the community healthy and
wealthy" ... Oh, this is my opinion, also ;-)

There seem many points of view in analyzing, reviewing and
evaluating the top page

1. Total size (byte)
2. Keywords
3. Number of links
4. Look and Feel
5. Consistency

From the point of view #1, 

<1>  http://jakarta.apache.org/ (now)
   HTML: 32841byte  Images: 8584byte  Total: 41245byte
<2>  http://jakarta.terra-intl.com/index.en.html  (proposal)
   HTML: 42956byte  Images: 8584byte  Total: 51540byte

From the point of view #2,

<1> 1081 words (Approximately)
<2> 1310 words (Approximately)
This is often used as an indicator of the search engine
optimization.

From the point of view #3, #4 and #5

<1> has self-contradiction in itself, because the related-projects and 
jakarta-projects co-exist in the same table and separated in the 
left side navigator (Apparent in JAMES). This inconsistency
triggers some sorts of confusions to the beginners of jakarta-world.
However, if we remove JAMES from the top page's table (explanations)
to keep the consistency, I think it is apparant that JAMES' top page
views would be gradually decreased.
(Java beginners do not know what JAMES is, so not be
inspired, motivated to click the left side navi's JAMES' link)
<2> keeps the consistency and keeps the JAMES' top page views
from the standpoint of nature conservation ;-)
/* Maybe its' top page views will be rather increased, because the users
 tend to click the links in 'TOP' or 'BOTTOM' .. statistics show */
Also, the top page of jakarta would be a portal of the most
of Java users and developers, as far as the related-projects
are explained in detail and it is arranged properly.

--

I had come to the conclusion that <2> is better than <1>,
given careful consideration to these points above totally.

Any thoughts??

[PATCH] xdocs/site/source.xml -- diff howto

2003-05-30 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hi,

I noticed that my favorite mail client, Becky!, was great enough to
automatically append colored-label to the mails which have "[PATCH]"
prefixed subject. And I accidentally found that I once submitted a patch
for the introduction of the "how to make -u style diff using WinCVS" to
xdocs/site/source.xml. (It was mid of September last year, and maybe 
Andy was too busy to apply that ;-) ... it was in this mailing list.

Here I made a patch for it (including expanded explanation)
, zipped (contains site_source.xml.txt), and attached to this e-mail.

Please apply this.

Sincerely,

Oh, joy! Why did it come out to light that I am a man?
Russian gentlemen often take me as a lady because my first name
ends up with "ya". ;-)

By the way, congratulations upon the promotion of Tapestry to Jakarta

Re: [PATCH] index.xml patch for introduction to related projects (was Re: [PATCH] Re: Jakarta Newsletter ...)

2003-06-01 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hi, Robert and all.

I created new one and put on
http://jakarta.terra-intl.com/index.en.html
This is my idea.

1. Created a new table for the introductions of related projects.
   (Ant, Avalon, DB, Incubator, James and MAVEN)
2. Added a direct link to related projects' "site" (for incubator
   and DB, especially it would be necessary)
3. Fixed the order of "James Released" and "Scalab released" in
   "other news" section. (Sorry, this was my mistake)
4. Fixed some typos and grammatical errors.
5. Added direct "ComponentsList" link in the row of Jakarta
   Commons' explanations (I think this is very very useful!)
6. Added "Projects in Proposal" for future enhancements. (Now N/A)

And this is based on the newest CVS.

If this would be better than the existing one, I'll re-submit 
patches within a couple of days.

Sincerely,

You are right. Also, Danny and Steven are right.

Even though I've shown (and other ones) the way to
make a change to vendors.html, there was no one
(no company) who created a patch for it and no one
posted here in this mailing list.

So, I've come to change my mind that the "sanity check"
(remain difficulties to change vendor.html) is still necessary.
It's a decent barrier to discourage sales and marketing
people to use apache.org as a marketing vehicle.

Please discard the patch I once submitted,
"[PATCH] Instruction to create a patch to vendors.xml"
in the top of this tree.

Very sorry.

How can I express my feeling, deepest gratitude .. I am very flattered.

Sure, I would be very pleased to join to your family

Now, I am translating the apache incubator site, so
I am feeling more closer to apache family.
http://incubator.terra-intl.com/  (Japanese)
I'll DO the best cordially if your families accept me as one
of jakarta/apache citizens.

P.S. By the way, is there "jakarta-general" project??
I remember that there were discussions about the promotion of 
"jakarta-site" project in July, August last year...

Thank you for the mentions. I see, "a" means "advanced", "adjusted"
or something, right?
Again, many thanks Larry.

By the way, probably you can use the list of the
"products list available as of 31st May, 2003"
in the upcoming newsletter and to check the difference
between downloadable versions on binindex.cgi.

Re: New Top page

2003-06-08 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hello, all.

I've done this.


1. Added direct link to "commons-components-list" on the table of
   jakarta-commons.
   (So, please keep the consistencies in components.html > commons-dev)
2. Created new table for the instruction to the related-projects
   (Ant, Avalon, DB, Incubator, James and MAVEN)
3. Fixed misc. (e.g. Turbine do not have Torque any more etc.)
4. Added "Projects in Proposal" for the future enhancements. (Now N/A)


1. Added direct link to www.apache.org (Apache Jakarta/Apache Website)
2. Added direct link to the "ASF Glossary" (Reference/ASF Glossary)
3. Deleted duplicated "Avalon" to keep consistency (Products/Avalon)
4. Added direct link to "HTTPD" project (related/HTTPD)

Sincerely,
Tetsuya.

Probably it was my problem. I did not subscribed to site-cvs
(subscribed as another mail account). I think this caused the problem
and my mails remained in the queue.

I suspected that it was due to the problems of WinCVS, but it was not.

Re: Gump and Unicode

Tim,

I looked at the code in codec.

It is obvious that GUMP error would occur the same as 
Jakarta-Jetspeed and other projects experienced once.
(Also, in my Japanese environment, it is garbled character)
This means that we Japanese can not build codec. (Default
codepage is different) ... Needless to say, I failed.

Please change the "Ntilde" etc. to \u*** style.
(just use "native2ascii" in your env)

Remain the archives on http://jakarta.apache.org/mail/

Technically, it might be possible. However, mangling e-mail addresses
would turn out that the 'mangled' mbox archives are meaningless, IMO.
(we can not import the UNIX mbox style text with such mangled e-mail
addresses to the mail clients)

> However, unless the mailing list software can also be persuaded to hide the

> Might be worth trying a combination of approaches.

For example:
1. Hide the raw text (current month only) which would be created
automatically
2. Create gzip compressed files every 6 hours and put them into the mail
archive directory (***/jakarta.apache.org/mail/), simultaneously delete
the older ones...

These above could be one of the approaching methods.
(But I am not sure HOW TO accomplish this ... infrastructure@ matter??)

These above are on the assumption that the spiders can not read the
gzip compressed files. Am i right or wrong??

I agree, but with qualifications.

How about preparing new page for the companies/vendors which have no
'committer' in jakarta? Just devide into the vendors.html
and vendorlist.html.
And make vendors.html for the vendors which employ the committers and
vendorlist.html for the vendors which do not employ the committers.

I really want to prepare the vendorlist.html with the list of the
regions (Asia, US, Europe, etc.). Apache-Jakarta is suffering the
shortage of the Asian vendors' support.

If there will be no 'another page' which can complement the vendors.html,
I oppose to your opinions (especially the requirement for *committership*).

[JAKARTA NEWSLETTER] News on Jakarta from May to June, 2003

2003-07-02 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
Hello, All


We are now preparing the 'Jakarta Newsletter Issue 9',
news from May to June 2003, which would be published
in the middle of July 2003.

The 'Jakarta Newsletter Issue 9' will be appeared at
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/news/200305.html
and the editorial deadline would be 00:00 GMT, 6th July.

We lowered the barrier to entry - users and developers will
be able to easily contribute, as prepared the
ApacheWiki (http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi).

If you have anything to be added to the ApacheWiki, please go to
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?JakartaNewsletterDrafts/Issue9
and fill in up what you want to append.
If there's nothing news-worthy on the projects, then please just
write *N/A*.

If you have been voted in as a new committer in jakarta or
jakarta-related projects within these 2 months, please add your
name to the list on ApacheWiki.

Probably, the former newsletter draft (Jakarta Newsletter Issue8)
would give you some hints in writing the articles.
cf. 
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?JakartaNewsletterDrafts/Issue8March2003


If you have any questions about this, please send your messages to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Personally, I am interested in this project, but I am not a *member*

How about posting your message to

Maybe, you can find the ASF *member*  outside of jakarta.

There are only 35 potential "Mentor"s (I mean, sponsors) in jakarta, as
you can see. If you are confident you can build a powerful community,
IMHO you do not have to stick to seek the Mentor in jakarta.

I hope this mail might help you to some extent.

1. There are many many non-English-speaking "members" as well as
"committers" in jakarta. However, unfortunately non-Latin1-speaking
"members" are a few. This means that they can not easily understand
many hardships which people in multi-byte area *must* undergo.

2. Given that some of the members/committers in jakarta got aware the
importance of the internationalization, I think they pretty do not know
how to deal with it properly. (In short, they can not *test* easily in
their environment)

3. In jakarta/apache, there are some projects using so called "Resource
Bundle". (AFAIK: jakarta-jetspeed, maven and jakarta-struts, etc.)

4. Personally, I think it might be a nice idea to create i18n subproject
and make *soft link* to each subprojects' directory/ resource bundles.
In this way, we do not have to download all the subprojects' (e.g.
apache-maven) modules and can contribute to the translation materials.
(just download the i18n module and contribute to it)

5. The i18n subproject described above can also attract many
contributors who are interested in the internationalization issues in
general. The effort of the i18n proj can influence all the Apache
related products. Maybe it can be a nice *community* which focuses
on the internationalization issues related to the opensource communities.
It would be very sad if the *know-hows*/*knowledge database*
for the i18n/l10n issue will not be gathered in one appropriate place in
apache/jakarta. The i18n subproject might be able to become a *symbol*
of the ASF's i18n, and this gives a good *SIGN* that ASF is welcoming
all sorts of the users' communities all over the world. I think it would
be very nice if any committers in a specific subproject can easily ask
to the community concerning with i18n issue, "I am lacking the know-hows
on the i18n/l10n issue. Are there anyone who can support me/us here??".

6. Personally, I do not think the i18n issue is not only related to java
but also to all the *language*s. So, I suggested, "you do not have
to adhere to jakarta, IMHO".

6'. I think apache-httpd project had a great success in the i18n/l10n
issue, so their knowledge might help you a lot.

Andy,

1: Do you know the existence of
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-project/
?
Is this outside of ASF?  Doesn't this project have a concrete goal?

2: I did not mention any kind of "people sit around tables and make
speeches"... it might be better to go to party@ or wherever...

3: Sure I mentioned "soft link" (symbolic link might be preferable), but
it is not related to "soft" project. It's like uh ... jakarta-site
module and jakarta-site2 module... what Andy taught me just a month ago.

4: IMHO: If the original proposal from Robert are missing in some
points, it might be a good *task* for the committers/members
to adjust/mold it to suit it to the whole benefits of the ASF.
Internationalization (in various meanings) brings the prosperity to
the ASF more and more, I am sure.


APPENDIX:
These kind of *gathering all the knowledge/translations from all over
the world* bring immediate results to the logging packages/ portals etc.,
needless to say.

[Newslettter] Jakarta Newsletter Issue 9 -- May-June 2003

Jakarta Newsletter Issue 9
==

 Date: May-June 2003 
 Url: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/news/200305.html 

 It's been another good year at the JavaWorld Tools Awards [1] for
Apache.
 Xerces2 Java Parser 2.4 from the Apache XML Project won the Best
Java-XML Tool award and Apache Ant 1.5 developed by the Apache Ant
Project won the Most Useful Java Community-Developed Technology. Good
work! 

 W3C has issued SOAP 1.2 as a recommendation. This means that the SOAP
1.2 specification is now (effectively) a web standard. Apache software
related to SOAP can be found in the Web Services and XML projects. The
press release is now available online [3].

 This newsletter is the second wiki-built newsletter. See the
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?JakartaNewsletterDrafts
for more details. Also, I sent the announcements to all the developers'
list in jakarta. It was a bit annoying I suppose, however, this
newsletter contains a lot of news from various projects, including
Jakarta Related Projects.

 Note:

 Apache Ant, Avalon, James, Maven, Incubator, DB (OJB/TORQUE) are not
subprojects under Apache Jakarta any longer, however, we really
appreciate to hear the news from the Jakarta Related Projects.
I strongly hope/believe this "newsletter" would be able to become one
of the *liaison* for the various projects in ASF.

 I want to thank those who contributed and hope that you enjoy the read.
If you would like to comment further on any of the highlighted
discussions then please do so on the appropriate list [4],
if you want to comment on the newsletter itself then please point your
comments to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with [NEWSLETTER] prefixed
subject.

" Ideas, suggestions, and comments on the overall Jakarta project "

Editor: Tetsuya Kitahata

 Discussions on general mailing list have been fairly light-weight these
2 months. The Main page of the Jakarta Site has been updated in order to
arrange the "Jakarta-Related" projects properly. Now, Jakarta website
has renewed to become one of the most powerful "Java-Portal" sites. The
JavaOne Conference was held in June, and there seemed many atendees from
jakarta participants. 

 As Sun Microsystems set up the http://java.net/ site, there was alot of
talk surrounding this issue. 

 Jakarta Tapestry, which had been longed to become a Top Project in
Jakarta, finally joined in the Jakarta Umbrella in May. The first
proposal was made at General Mailing List in October last year by Howard
M. Lewis Ship, so it took about a half year. We look forward to the
Tapestry Team playing a more active part in Jakarta.

Hi,

I am very *very* sad to say, but ... your e-mail was not posted to
an appropriate mailing list, it seems.

Please go to

and subscribe to the (Ant) User List.

Then, you can post your questions to the mailing list.

Hope things go well.

[CONCLUSION] Apache Newsletter

2003-07-16 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
All,

Seems that the vote (to be precise, proposal) has been
passed without a dissenting voice.
"The ayes have it !"

So, I will prepare for the Apache Newsletter from now on.
(ApacheWiki, etc.)
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ApacheNewsletterDrafts
and
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ApacheNewsletterDrafts/Issue1

Apache Newsletter will be appeared at http://www.apache.org/newsletter/

If you have question on this, please do not hesitate to ask me
([EMAIL PROTECTED])

Cross-Posted to Jakarta-General, WS-General and XML-General.
To WS and XML folks: please see the jakarta-newsletter example seen at
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/news/200305.html
We will prepare the Apache Software Foundation Wide Newsletter.

I will announce to you at all the developer list when I need help for
the articles. Please please help me when the time has come.

-- My Original Intention --

There are so many projects in the ASF, and it might be very hard for all
the users/developers to catch up whole things what is happening to the
Apache activities. The aim of the newsletter is to try and let people know 
what's been going on in the projects in the ASF when they have been
unable to monitor all of them themselves.  The editorship of the various
sections and overall will probably vary which should hopefully lead to a
fairly dynamic newsletter.

There are many people who are *passive* as well as *active*. People
in the tendency of passive will not actively see the website maybe,
however, e-mail might be able to stir up the *awareness*/*imagination*
for something.
I hope/believe that these kind of *awareness* will come to fruition
of the *cross-pollination* and *breakthrough* in technology as well
as in community's growth (ASF-wide community's growth).
Of course, I want to prepare the web version for the newsletter:
there are many people who love e-mails as well as web pages.

I am glad that this "Apache Newsletter" will be published as a result
of the outgrowth of "Jakarta Newsletter" and the newsletter can cover
all the projects including infrastructure, incubator et ce tra. 
Thanks to the all the contributors to the previous jakarta newsletter
and the precursors, Rob Oxsprings and Robert Burrel Donkin's great work.

We lowered the barrier to entry - users and developers will be able to
easily contribute, as prepared the ApacheWiki.
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi

If you have anything to be added to the ApacheWiki, please go to
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ApacheNewsletterDrafts/Issue1
and fill up what you want to append.


Anticipating nice blurb and news for the projects which you are
interested in!!



Sincerely,

-- Tetsuya ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

P.S.
There is still a room for the discussion about the 'frequency' and
'place to post', however, I want to do the "experimentation" for a while.
(not so long)
I think "experimentation" might conform to the "A Patchy" spirits ;-)

"The Apache Newsletter" will be published from next month, and sure 
the image * Apache == Apache HTTPD * will gradually diminish.

At the same time, IMHO, HTTPD members are better to take it into
consideration when they publish the [announcement] to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

mail2.html -> mail.html

2003-07-20 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hi all,

I am wondering how it might be if deleting
jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html and putting all
the contents to jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html

All the Apache TLPs (Top Level Projects) do not separate
the mail list explanation pages like jakarta, AFAICS.
cf. http://ant.apache.org/mail.html
http://httpd.apache.org/lists.html

I think that each subprojects can indicate the direct/appropriate
subscribe/unscribe section from each subprojects' pages.
(Now: e.g. http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#tomcat
future: e.g. http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html#tomcat)

Any thoughts?

Yes, I think so. However, there are many many mailing list in
mail2.html and we did not point out the *appropriate* mail
list in the past, it seems.
(We often use this phrase, "subscribe to the *appropriate* lists"
... not user-friendly phrase...)

Promoting to point out directly the *appropriate* mail lists
(e.g. http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#tomcat
or http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html#tomcat) might
be better than now, I think.

If httpd, ant or whatever in apache.org had failed to let people read
the MailList *guideline*, I am willing to withdraw my proposal.

No, my original intention was derived from just this simple question:
"Why doesn't each subprojects' left-side navi point to the *appropriate*
section in mail2.html?"

For example, if Jakarta-Poi's website have the direct link
(http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#poi) in its' left
side navigator, people will not wander the mail.html/mail2.html
and be satisfied surely.

Next, in this situation, I thought the current mail.html
is meaningless, so why not conjoin mail.html and mail2.html?
(Also, please see the sample below)

For me, subscribe/unsubscribe is very easy, because
I remember *-subscribe*/*-unsubscribe* suffix :D

However,
there are many people who can not find the way to
unsubscribe each mailing lists :D, even though
each mails has *appripriate* mail trailer (signature).

Things might be better to become simpler.

1.

Current pages are user-*un*friendly:
My proposal is user-friendly:

*user* means "future developer", who might devote to the
jakarta activities and the ASF activities in the future.

I can not find any good reasons to keep current pages unchanged,
in other words.

2.

Please see Andrew and Henri's comments. These implied the *reason*
what you wanted, I think.

I am not sure whether all the subscribers have read the guideline
completely and have respect to mailing lists.

If they are wise enough and given that people had read mail.html page, 
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/micromail.html
would not have dead linked pages * at all*, I think.
(This page is now linked by site/mail.html, as you all can see.
And .. sorry I do not use any mail clients/ servers created by MS, so
I won't/can't apply any changes to this page)

Also, I am not sure whether it would re-introduce problems. Aren't
there any alternative method which fulfill these two? :
1.  Keep User-Friendli-ness
2.  Avoid Trouble
I suggested various approaching methods in the past. Probably,
there might be much *better* way.

*chicken* and *egg*. Who felt hardness to find *appropriate list*
won't come to this list and can not comment to your line. You'll
not be able to hear their voices.

Also,
it takes at least 10-30 seconds to find the *appropriate*
lists out even though using *Ctrl+F* at current site/mail2.html.
What would happen after directly, simply indicating the *appropriate*
lists??? (again)
e.g.   http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#general

--

I think the policy of Apache (Jakarta) might have had "A Patchy"
spirits, providing experimental space for all the people.

There are no reason for letting the beginners feel unease, enforce
them to wander off and get lost in the jakarta desert.
Why not adopting "Easy to entry: Learn more here" approaching method??



I am trying to reduce the user-*un*friendli-ness from jakarta gradually...

Re: mail2.html -> mail.html

2003-07-22 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata
Thank you for the comment, Robert.


TO tell the truth, my original motivation to arise this
issue was concering to the upcoming newsletter.

I published the final "Jakarta Newsletter" in early
this month and I found I made some mistakes. Also,
there was something which I got aware:

<<1>>

I've forgot to append the URL of Apache Ant. There might
be someone who came to jakarta-general, not knowing
that Ant had been separated and have own mailng lists.

<<2>>

I wrote:
'If you would like to comment further on any of the highlighted
discussions then please do so on the appropriate list [4],

 [4] - http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html'

However, at the same time I felt guilty about this .. thinking
"Oh, how user unfriendly I am!"

<<3>>

I have felt the mail trailer (can be seen at the bottom of each mails)
can be improved in the future. I was getting too nervous on the 
next Newsletter (ASF-wide) and thought "before it is too late"...

--

Anyway, I will perform the improvements gradually... There
seem many rooms for improvements even in the current site/mail2.html.

Thank you all who participated in this issue for the comments!

Sincerely,

-- Tetsuya ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

I made many changes to mail.html and mail2.html the other day.
Now, each subprojects can point out
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#(projectname/acronym)
directly.

I do not think separating the intro page of userlist from
that of devlist is a good idea (sorry). I am afraid it might cause
confusions to the users/developers.

Rather, I would like to prompt each projects to
1. change left-side navi of each projects
2. change message trailer (footer of each mails)

#1:
 please see the sample of this: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/

#2:
 The Apache Jakarta POI Project will use these message trailers below,

2003-07-31 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hello, All (Jakarta-General Mailing List Subscribers)



I am now preparing the 'The Apache Newsletter Issue 1',
the first ASF-wide-newsletter of July 2003, which will be published
in the middle of August 2003.
--  http://www.apache.org/newsletter/  --

This "Apache Newsletter" will be published as a result of the outgrowth
of the previous "Jakarta Newsletter" and "Apache Newsletter" can now
cover all the projects under apache.org including infrastructure,
incubator, xml, webservice, et cetra.

'The Apache Newsletter Issue 1' will be appeared at
http://www.apache.org/newsletter/200307.html

been already set up.
If you have anything to be added to the ApacheWiki, please go to
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?ApacheNewsletterDrafts/Issue1
and fill up what you want to append in.
If there's nothing news-worthy on your sub/projects, then please write
something you *hope* (e.g. XX project will release FINAL version of
XX product in the middle of August, etc etc).

If you have been voted in warmly as a new committer in ASF the
last month (July) please add your name to the list on ApacheWiki.

If your project really want some "ADVERTISEMENT" (to recruit
new comers, etc etc), please write nice and catchy blurb at the
"advertisement" section so that it will attract the readers'
attentions.

Probably, the former newsletter final draft and newsletter itself
(Jakarta Newsletter Issue 9)
will give you some hints in writing the articles.
cf.
http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?JakartaNewsletterDrafts/Issue9
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/news/200305.html

Oh, really? ... should we rename it to "Apatchy
Newsletter" or something? :-)

...

Anyway, the formal newsletter's name will be "The Apache Newsletter".
("The"-prefixed, capitalized).
I do not want to recall you the issue of "Apache != HTTPD", however,
this newsletter will be able to reduce such kind of *misunderstanding*
gradually, i hope.

The Apache Newsletter Issue #1 Released



Thanks to all the contributors/editors of the newsletter,
the first "The Apache Newsletter" (Issue #1) has arrived
at last.
http://www.apache.org/newsletter/200307.html
"The Apache Newsletter" could be published as a result of the
outgrowth of "Jakarta Newsletter" and the newsletter can cover
all the projects including infrastructure, incubator et cetera.


You can read it through
http://www.apache.org/newsletter/200307.html
http://www.apache.org/newsletter/index.html

and if you are the subscriber of the "Apache Announcement List"
(http://www.apache.org/foundation/mailinglists.html#foundation-announce),
the e-mail version will be arrived at this mailing list in
several hours.


Today, 15th August 2003, is the 58th anniversary of the end of the
Pacific War (and World War II) and I am very glad to publish this
newsletter in this moment. The internet and the wave of
internationalization gradually reduced the boundaries of each countries,
as well, this newsletter will be one of the *glue* of the communities in
the ASF umbrella, beyond the artificial boundaries of technical
languages etc. Hope this can gradually lead the good course of the ASF,
avoiding the balkanization of each projects and keep the hand tightly
with various projects. 


I want to thank to those who contributed and hope that you enjoy the
read. If you would like to comment further on any of the highlighted
discussions then please do so on the appropriate mailing lists [1]. 
if you want to comment on the newsletter itself then please point your
comments to ApacheWiki [2] or mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I am afraid that it is determined by GeoIP.so or something

Please review the eyebrowse page (http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/)

I assume there's not "garbled characters" any longer, however,
I have no way to review/confirm it.

Commit Message (Re: Footprints to the mail)

2003-10-04 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

This is my post in the distant past, however, maybe
contains useful information for the new committers.

I subscribe to all the -dev lists in jakarta.apache.org and 
often see "Where is my commit message?" questions from new
committers.

Yes, there is a reason.

1. Remote moderators have not moderated your commit message yet
2. You ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) are not a subscriber to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]

--

Maybe, the best way would be the subscription to
-allow lists.

For example, you can post to 
general-allow-subscribejakartaapacheorg
in order to join to "do-not-receive-messages from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
but can-post-messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

The same goes for all the -dev and -cvs lists.
(XX-dev-allow-subscribejakartaapacheorg ... etc.)

Hope this helps.

Forrest skin for Jakarta-XX project

2003-10-22 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Hi,


I am now thinking of the *unified* skin (of Apache Forrest)
for Jakarta SubProjects...

Now, Jakarta-POI uses Apache Forrest for building the site.
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/

I think Jakarta-Tapestry will make use of it. too.

(What about Struts?)

--

I prepared "Jakarta-Skin" which is similar to
"POI-skin" (Look and feel: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/)
and I want to put it into jakarta-site2, so that other
projects can re-use.

Any thoughts?

It's related to the fact that you did not login to minotaur
(www.apache.org) via ssh and have not done
$ umask 0002
$ chmod -R g+w /x1/www/jakarta.apache.org/jmeter

Maybe you can find "new" xsl file via

Maybe you might have already known, ws-site/ws-axis/ws-soap [1][2][3]
are now using the similar skin. (I put the skin into respective
modules directly)
Sure, I re-used the avalon-tigris, however, the Forrest 0.5.1
avalon-tigris did not suffice our gratifications.

I am sure that I can post patches to forrest-dev, however,
I am afraid it would affect seriously to avalon-site in the
future.

What would you say, Avalon-Team?

D'oh... Sorry. I had a little confused.

Okeydokey. 

What I proposed here, was not "Please use Forrest, all the
Jakarta-XX-Team", but "Dear Jakarta-XX-Project, which
want to use Apache Forrest ...".

I've heard that Struts Team once discusses about the usage of Forrest,
so I said "What about Struts?"

As for JMeter, I think now it is working well. 
(Yes, I sent patches for the re-build of the site using Anakia, 
the other day)
Just I took a look at the current JMeter site and found that
there's still "Copyright 1999-2001" statement at the bottom
of each pages. So, I told you the procedure of updating website how-to.

Thank you.

Re: Forrest skin for Jakarta-XX project

2003-10-22 Thread Tetsuya Kitahata

Before that, could you please answer my (innocent) question?

Why was there no "PDF-Rendering" function in the default
avalon-tigris?

I thought that Avalon-Team did not want the 
PDF files because PDF could have been big
enough to be downloaded.

Sure, I know that it would be related to
skinconfig/disable-pdf-link @ skinconf.xml, though :)

--

Rather, I thought that "jakarta-skin"/"ws-skin" naming
would make sense (Just a copy and reuse of avalon-tigris,
it would be), if it would be integrated into the default
Forrest "skins" dir.

($FORREST/dist/shbat/)
context -
   skins - |--avalon-tigris
   |--common
   |--forrest-css
   |--forrest-site
   |--jakarta-site
   |--krysalis-site
   |--template
   |--ws-site

... Make sense?

In my mind, there might be four options:

1. Create "jakarta-skin" and put it (them) into jakarta-site2
2. Create "jakarta-skin" and put it (them) into xml-forrest. We have
to wait the next release of Forrest (0.5.2 or 0.6), though
3. Update "avalon-tigris" skin / Patch to it (them)
We have to wait the next release of Forrest (0.5.2 or 0.6), though
4. Create "jakarta-XX-skin"s and put it (them) into respective
modules. We can make use of it (them) immediately

Currently, Jakarta-POI adopts #4 style.
Now, I am thinking of the Forrest-ization of Jakarta-Tapestry.
(http://www.terra-intl.com/jakarta/tapestry/)
Therefore, I am thinking of the #1/#2/#3 options.

Any thoughts?

About the issue of openness and closeness:

board@ is *public* for all the ASF members. (Any ASF
members can be a *read only member* to the board@ list)
board@ is open list? close list?

I think that jakarta should choose an appropriate method
which suffices for most of the jakarta committers' needs.

For example:
Create topics for discussion -- PMC list
Vote -- general@ (or another appropriate list : important issues)
PMC list (trivial issues)
Report to all the jakarta committers -- general@

It seems that most of the committers in jakarta do not know
this fact. Before the discussion of *openness/closeness*, 
I think we should have common understanding on this.

Re: Volunteering for PMC membership

Hi,

I, Tetsuya Kitahata (tetsuya), would like to help
oversight of the jakarta websites. I request
my nomination for PMC membership.
Maybe this can be expressed as "jakarta-site2 PMC".

Note: The creation of jakarta-site2 project has been voted
here last year and adopted already.

Thanks,

-- Tetsuya Kitahata. ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

P.S. As I've said before, if ASF Board would have socialized
the marketing activities into "Public Relations and Communications
Committee", jakarta-site2 PMC could have helped such a committee,
i am sure.

+1. Agreed.

Why don't Jakarta adopt "EU"-like governance style?
(Board => Secretariat of the United Nations:
Jakarta Sub-Projects can have the status of "Nation"
Jakarta itself is "United Nations". Other TLPs are
"Nation"s)

People often hold of the wrong end of the stick and assume that
bylaws is for bylaws. -- NO -- Bylaws is *for* the components
of each communities/organizations.

Well said. Also, i think PMC members do *not* "have to develop"
source codes.
For example, look at ORO. I've heard ORO team does not have 3 *active*
committers, however, I believe some of PMC members (not ORO committers)
can vote at oro-dev and can take *responsibilities* to the codes,
when the vote of ORO X.Y.Z release.
ORO-dev archive (open) memorizes who vote(d) and who are/were
responsible to the votes.

Anyways, I think Jakarta can have Jakartan-Way.

Good luck, folks.

I agree. Also, I think "[PROPOSAL] As it ever were" mail
was very reasonable. However, just one question came to my mind.

Have The Committer Votes (I mean, [VOTE] in to elect new committer)

Could you please explain more?

Yes, HTTP Server Project / APR Project folks often feel that it is
improper, it seems. (I am not a HTTPD guy ;-) I've heard such opinions
on other lists before.

Well, I think it that vote jakartan-way (to vote new committers in)
is reasonable as well as the way other (single projects -- which do not
have many subprojects under their umbrella) projects had chosen is.

Only one concern. Maybe Jakarta has many *zombie* committers.
I hope current (jakartan) voting rule hadn't affected to the *inflated
zombies* phenomena. To eliminate *zombie* committers would be one
of the critical issues for Jakarta PMC, I imagine. (This is also
board members' concern, I imagine)

Anyways, I think Jakarta can have Jakartan-Way.
Good luck, folks. (And thanks)

Makes sense. Thanks.

I'd subscribed to all the -dev lists and downloaded all the 
archive messages from jakarta.apache.org/mail/**.

I found it that if PMC situation would be squared away, PMC
list could take over the place for committer votes, too.
I had a stats of the contributors' messages and sometimes felt
"I do want to vote him/her in to XX subproject if I were a committer
of this (sub)project" where I am not a committer nor a PMC Member.
(So, I often did "non-binding" votes -- +1 to excellent
persons ... Right? >> Adam @ gump)

I think you folks can choose the appropriate persons for the 
jakarta-committership, granted you won't hold Committer votes
in public. -- I remember that one of the ASF members has already
invented nice voting machine program @ minotaur (wrapper program
for qmail, if i remember correctly) -- Maybe you/we will be able
to make use of it (Then, PMC list's traffic won't be increased).

Hope this helps.
