General questions, since... we haven't actually had any discussion yet.
- Is there a particular hurry to bring this to pTLP faster than the
traditional general@incubator discussion period is?
Is 2 weeks faster than the traditional general@incubator discussion? I brought
the
original thread up August 2nd, the Board meeting will be August 16th, so that’s
2 full
weeks. I was under the impression that’s an appropriate amount of discussion
time.
The discussion has already led to folks from the Wicket community submitting and
getting a PR merged to upgrade Proteus [1], and to generally good will about
the submission.
The Creadur folks and others also have discussed it [2] and I have sent them an
email in reply.
- Has the Apache Creadur project been consulted about the new project
proposal, and in particular do they have any comments on using DRAT as
the name, which subsumes their popular Rat name?
I don’t believe DRAT (which we’ve on the project also said is more like “D’oh”,
or
“DRAT!” than it would be a Distributed creature or Creadur) completely subsumes
RAT at all. In fact, RAT itself is a loaded name, especially if you work in the
CyberSec
community where RAT typically means Remote Access Tool (sharing two common words
with our Apache RAT, etc etc). And in CyberSec land a “RAT” is also kinda a
“creature” because
it “infects” your computer, etc., etc., Regardless, I don’t think Apache DRAT
completely subsumes
the name of Apache RAT at all for those reasons stated.
- It's awesome to see ™ included in a proposal (most people forget), but
they're mixed up. Apache should be ® (when needed; when talking about
individual project names it's usually not needed) and most project names
should be ™. So it would be either Apache® Rat™ or Apache Rat™.
Fixed.
Thanks for filling out the rest of the proposal.
Anytime!
Chris

fine, but then we would create an account for them after the fact. Is this the
desire? If so I will update the resolution and we can VOTE them in as PMC after
the project is establish should the Board agree to do so.
