We've had someone from a vendor attach code in JIRA, a co- worker say they would review and "possibly check it into a sandbox" and then this commit to a branch only the vendor's employees are working on. Not one single mail to the dev list. This isn't community development, it's a code dump. Please take this out of SVN and talk to the community about it - you might find people are interested in it.
Could one of our mentors/IPMCers comment on if this -1 comes with enough of a technical reason to make it a veto? If thats the case you need to revert the commit now before anymore discussion Raymond. Hopefully there will be discussion and development of the ejb binding on the ML in future, but the way its been done I don't think warrants it being removed right now. As I understand it there has been a CCLA received by Apache for the code. In the past there's been a lot of similar sized function committed to Tuscany trunk with no discussion until afterwards, and this code didn't get put in the trunk. More discussion would be better but I think one reason people do it this way may be as its easier to talk about things once there is actual code in SVN to refer to and try out. The commit was done late on Friday probably they're off for the weekend now, so how about waiting to see if they start discussions about this contribution on Monday. ...ant PS, Rashmi, this looks really good to me and nicely written, i think it would be a great addition to Tuscany. Hope you don't get put off by this procedural debate and and can stick around to help develop Tuscany further.
