It is one thing to question the wisdom of splitting a project, if one perceives it that way, from going so far as to say that "all open source code should be done at Apache and there are no reasonable scenarios in which another open source community can or should attempt to co-operate with Apache." As I see it, you started from a specific example, provided an extreme generalization, and questioned the extreme. I would question that extreme, too! :-) See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductio_ad_absurdum Personally, my view has been that if a community wants to come to the ASF, to Eclipse, or to any other place, they should be able to do so, assuming that the organization they wish to join is willing. And I always encourage collaboration, and convergence where appropriate. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
