Hi,
sorry for not replying immediately. We have now 7 persons who would be
willing to join a new PMC:
Jacob Danner (already committer)
Jerry Sy
Pascal Heus
Jack Gager
Harring Figueiredo
Serkan Tas
Daniel Lübke (me)
I have talked to the Apache ODE PMC Chair Tammo van Lessen how we can
get things running again, i.e. which Apache rules are there etc. I will
keep you updated.
Are there any other committers (except for Jacob) who would continue to
contribute to this project?
Regards,
Daniel

Hi list,
I am a long-time user of XMLBeans, most of the time as part of the
BPELUnit project. There is no replacement to XMLBeans because in
contrast to JAXB if preserves namespace declarations so you e.g. read
and write XML document that contain XPath expressions (e.g. BPEL,
BPMN2, ...).
Although I know XMLBeans only from the user perspective, I would
contribute to it, which includes learning more of its internals, apply
the outstanding patches, test them and so on.
As far as I understand the Apache rules a project needs to have a
working PMC. This means at least 3 people (for substitution 4 or 5
would be better) which vote on releases. I also would join a new PMC
if 3 other would be willing to join me and at least build regular
maintainance releases to keep this project alive and reboot its PMC.
I know that many other projects use XMLBeans, e.g. Apache Camel,
Apache CXX Apache ODE, ... and many non-Apache projects, too. So I
hope that we can find enough interested people to keep this project
alive.
If you are one of them, please reply to this list. If we are enough
people, I would try to talk to the Apache Foundation.
Regards,
Daniel
