James, Incubation process is not set in stone. Just last week, we voted on standardizing the mailing list names. So it is a mix of good judgement, experience, consensus and rules. If you insist we can put start a VOTE on [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think you are part of that as well.
I did bring up issues on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing lists and we resolved it. As to "related-ness". I'd even be ok with ActiveMQ as a TLP or ServiceMix as a TLP. But it does not seem right to be part of Geronimo as a sub project. I'd prefer ServiceMix folks to work more closely with WS folks or even move to WS-land. But that's another story. FYI, am and Guillaume Nodet did work during the hackathon on some stuff. But i'd like to see more closer cooperation. Especially for items that you need and those that affect Geronimo like JAX-WS 2.0/JAXB. It's not like we want all ws stuff to be in ws pmc. JSR 181 in Beehive and WSRP4J in portals are good examples of sister projects that still work closely with Axis dev folks. Also, what does "community" means? does it mean existing folks who are working on the projects already at codehaus? Especially when Syanpse and Axis are mentioned in the proposal and we don't see anyone show up on the dev mailing lists, it's just fishy to say the least. FYI, this is not the first time i had to do this. I did this with beehive too. See my post in Oct 2004 articulating the same concerns with beehive. http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/beehive-dev/200410.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] thanks for listening, dims On 12/21/05, James Strachan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 21 Dec 2005, at 13:02, Davanum Srinivas wrote: > > 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.
