If we are not recignised already as a valuable part of ASF, why all the fuzz?
Because we don't have the said recognition.
???
I'm thinking to leave the ASF at all...
That sounds like releasing Tomcat binaries outside ASF...
What was the altruistic community become the playground for the major companies like Sun, Covalent, IBM, JBoss, etc... I'm not so sure that I wish to participate in the community where some shareholder board has a significant influence here.
If the Tomcat has not been recognized already as a valuable ASF project, then why all the effort? Who do we need to convince? What are the measures?
I know that I could sound a little bit idealistic, but do we really need the marketing? What would be the purpose of such marketing? The best products do not need the marketing (take the bible for example).
Yes, but marketing is very important nowaday probably more than 2000 years ago.
If someone thinks that my work needs the market evaluation, I'm charging $200 per hour.
Who the fuck is the ASF board at all? How did it get elected? Not by the committers that's for sure.
The board started with some of the httpd committers so they understand committers problems.
