Jason, you (and anyone else for that matter) are absolutely invited, should have made that point clear. I mentioned it on the list for exactly that reason though.
I agree that calls are not typical for the Apache projects I've seen either. But, it was proposed as a means to try to work through the issues quickly and to get everyone acquainted. Most discussion will obviously happen on the mailing lists. But, we need to come to a decision quickly on the base code as that's holding up any other work. If the community would rather handle it via IRC then we can do that. If done on IRC, do you just copy/paste the transcript somewhere for people to comment on later? Mentors, any suggestions here for how to have synchronous work sessions to get through discussions quickly? -Nick Nicholas Gallardo WebSphere - REST & WebServices Development [email protected] Phone: 512-286-6258 Building: 903 / 5G-016 Jason Dillon <[email protected] om> To Sent by: Jason [email protected] Dillon cc <jason.dil...@gma il.com> Subject Re: Architecture Q&A Call 06/18/2009 09:11 AM Please respond to wink-...@incubato r.apache.org I think I can make that, if I'm invited of course. Though along those lines, typically "calls" aren't really used that much by the Apache community... IRC at times has even been a stretch, though I think many communities use it for regular group communications. It may be construed as a bad sign if the first major discussion is effectively offline. Perhaps if a transcript of the call was recorded somewhere, on this list, it might fly. Otherwise it may be better from a community perspective to hold this meeting over IRC on freenode.net. But I'm unsure, we'll let the mentors chime in more on this. I do think there needs to be more discussion on the merits of both codebases before a descison is made. Hope this helps... --jason On Jun 18, 2009, at 8:57 PM, Nicholas L Gallardo wrote: > > All, > > I think it would be useful to have a call next week for some Q&A > regarding > the two runtimes and architectures.
