James,

To be blunt, what is being done here? here's what i see as a casual
observer to the infra list.

- A bunch of projects are getting into Apache controlled by the same
set of people (ServiceMix/ActiveMQ/XBean/WADI)

Not really; see the committer lists, they are all quite different. But sure there's a bunch of existing apache developers who work on some of those projects along with other Apache projects too.


- Folks are getting completely unrelated projects into an umbrella
project "Geronimo"

If anything is this an issue for Geronimo PMC not the incubator. Why have you not brought this up there as you are a member of the PMC?


- Folks involved want everything under the sun to be supported by infra folks

Huh? So far the ServiceMix & ActiveMQ teams have only asked for subversion & mail :)


- Folks dont want to use incubator.apache.org as the mailing list domain

See the other thread for that - the arguments for and against have been fairly well articulated.


- Folks dont want to even change their package name

I'm just asking an honest question here - I've already said, if there really is a rule we'll follow it. I just want to know is there a rule and if there is why does it exist.


- Folks just want to do what they want to do regardless of precedent

Hardly - this is why we're asking for guidance on the incubator list to see what we should do.

James
