I would appreciate your feedback on it, either here on the DL or by directly modifying it on the SH project wiki http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/STONEHENGE/March+2009 Please provide any comments by COB on Tuesday April 7th. After then I will post the report to the main reporting site at http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/April2009 thanks! My proposed draft: March Report: Stonehenge has been incubating since December 2008. Stonehenge a set of example applications for Service Oriented Architecture that spans languages and platforms and demonstrates best practices and interoperability by using currently defined W3C OASIS standard protocols. In the month of March, the growing Stonehenge community has ramped its activity on several fronts, and has made solid plans for near future:: Admin: The donated code from Microsoft and WS02 was moved from contrib to trunk. In the process various installation and configuration issues were identified, and the community has worked very closely on the DL and offline to advance these issues. Community: 3 SUN developers have joined and have been working through the various installation and configuration issues, and understanding the code architecture. They plan to contribute a Metro based java implementation in the medium term. Synergy has been developing between the WS02 and Microsoft developers towards identifying and resolving common issues. Code: The community has had discussions about a first release (M1) in the immediate short term. The release is defined to be executable code from the .NET and PHP implementations of the StockTrader application, along with complete documentation allowing a new Stonehenge member to demonstrate interoperability by mixing and matching components from the two StockTrader applications. The two applications are also undergoing necessary code changes to quality for passing the RAT tool (such as adding the legal headers) Wider Community: Some members and sponsors of Stonehenge have attended ApacheCon EU and connected with the wider community about Stonehenge -----Original Message----- From: Abu Obeida Bakhach [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 02, 2009 4:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Monthly Update for March - Due April 8th to the Board Hello all, It is that time of the month again, where we need to send in a status update about Stonehenge. I am volunteering to ensure that we get it done in a timely manner every month. This is how I understand the process, I am recapping it for myself and potentially others who are unfamiliar with it (Harold?): * The incubator PMC must report to the ASD board of directors every month [1] on typically a third of incubator projects * There is a reporting schedule that details when each project needs to report [1] * For Stonehenge, we had to do monthly reports in the Dec- Feb time frame, we did have reports, but they weren't rich in detail compared to the other ones. * I suggest that we go ahead with monthly reports to show the board of directors that we have good momentum going on I've created a wiki page to store our updates [2], and then I will collect and paste on the main reporting wiki. The final report is due on April 8th. So lets have our updates in by the coming Monday the 6th. Does that sound like a plan? Thanks, [1] http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ [2] http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/STONEHENGE/March+2009
