Dumb question, is it a requirement that the incubating project
move to
the org.apache package?
I would say "yes".
Big +1.
We of course cannot control standard APIs like org.w3c.dom, or javax.*
etc., but for software that is developed at Apache the Java packaging
should always be org.apache.*. IMO that's the signal to the world of
Java programmers that they're using ASF code and its a valuable signal
that we must not lose.
"Hurting" current users with the change cost is a good thing in this
case IMO: that way they too realize that there's a big change in the
project and that its now an ASF project.
Great point Sanjiva - am completely sold now, many thanks. Package
renaming for ActiveMQ and ServiceMix coming up real soon....
Thanks everyone for your comments. We should maybe capture some of
the points raised in this thread into the incubation guide?
