I can speak a little for AltRMI and the FtpServer projects which were spun out of Avalon oh so long ago. This was early in the Incubator's history before we had the guidelines and procedures we do today. The FtpServer has seen more recent activity, but those who have expressed interested in AltRMI (myself included) simply haven't invested in building a community around it (it was mostly stable code even when it was in Avalon). I believe a similar situation may be true of other dormant incubator projects. And "dormant" might be better than "failed." If someone wants to come along a pick up these projects and re-activate them, they are more than welcome. -- jaaron --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
