Re: New home for ECS, ORO and Regexp?
Feedback received in thread can more or less be summarized as Hen's note below. Daniel (or anyone else) - Should we check if there is interest at Commons in taking ORO? Vadim (or anyone else) - Should we check if there is interest at Commons in taking Regexp? If so, I will offer to initiate a thread over in Commons land if you want. -Rahul On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 1:49 PM, Henri Yandell wrote: > +1 on ECS to the Attic. > > +1 on ORO/Regexp to the Attic, unless Daniel/Vadim are interested in > moving them to Commons. > > To Daniel's not being +1 on Attic - don't worry about the > infrastructure move part, it's a well defined process now and someone > will take care of it. > > Hen > > On Sun, Feb 28, 2010 at 6:47 PM, Rahul Akolkar > wrote: >> This is cross-posted, please use your discretion to respond to the >> relevant list(s).

Re: New home for ECS, ORO and Regexp?
+1 on ECS to the Attic. +1 on ORO/Regexp to the Attic, unless Daniel/Vadim are interested in moving them to Commons. To Daniel's not being +1 on Attic - don't worry about the infrastructure move part, it's a well defined process now and someone will take care of it.

I have absolutely no problem with it moving into that Attic, but if anyone requires enhancements, such as adding \Q and \E, then just keep in mind that you're on your own after ORO moves into the Attic. The products that continue to use the software (and there are actually still quite a few outside of Apache, including commercial products) seem to have been happy with 2.0.8 for years. Those who do report issues of one sort or another do so in a hit and run fashion, such as last December when I spent time implementing a feature request and never heard back from the original requestor. Therefore, no matter how many users there are, I see no reason to keep ORO out of the Attic if users are not even willing to follow up on the responses to the issues they report. That said, I'm not voting a +1 because I don't have the time to help with satisfying the administrative details of the move. However, I'd like to thank in advance those who do spend the time implementing the move. daniel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@jakarta.apache.org

New home for ECS, ORO and Regexp?
This is cross-posted, please use your discretion to respond to the relevant list(s). At a suitable time, I'll try to collate replies in a summary post to gene...@. We have three Jakarta sub-projects that have been discussion points for moving elsewhere (viz. ECS, ORO and Regexp). For example, the last time this came up was during the merge development mailing lists discussion. There have been a couple of candidate locations spoken of where these can be moved: (a) Apache Commons, where they can be maintained -- pending Jakarta and Commons approvals; and (b) Apache Attic, where they can be retired -- pending Jakarta approval. If there is interest in moving one or more to Commons, we can initiate that topic with Commons some time soon. So, for each of the three sub-projects: Commons or Attic or something else now? I'll wait three weeks for any responses, please reply by 3/21 if you have any comments. -Rahul - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@jakarta.apache.org
