Hi all,

Thanks for your feedback.  I agree.  The incubator tag in no way
diminishes the amount of good effort already put into Abdera.  From a
product perspective, I was just concerned about customer related issues.
Right now, I'm working on a "framework" product.  End users will extend
this framework, so they will do the packaging/deployment/etc.  If I was
building a self-contained product, I would be less concerned.

But I do see that Abdera has been out of incubation since Nov 08, so I'm
less concerned now.  Hopefully I can get into using Abdera a lot more
and perhaps even contribute!

As Benson mentioned, the incubator tag is a reflection of community
maturity, 
not code maturity.   That said, Abdera did graduate out of the incubator
a 
while ago.   However, they haven't done a release yet since they
graduated.   
They seem to be working on a 1.0 release, but being fairly slow at it.
(I'm sure they would appreciate some help if anyone is interested)

That said, I WOULD like to see them put in "provided" scope and make
sure CXF would work without them (except for atom/pub based things,
obviously).

Dan
