This first sentence bothers me. Why do you want to do this, in preference to, for example, creating a project at Google Code? And what does it mean to you to "publish" at the ASF given that Labs cannot have releases? In short, what would be the real motivation in bringing the code to the ASF, and bringing it here now? <snip/> > 2) Jethran is not a committer anywhere, and so while he is the author, > I'd be the person requesting the lab and committing.

If the code is not yours, and you would just be committing someone else's code and changes for them, then the ASF as a whole is not appropriate, let alone Labs. > So, the question is, would you think it reasonable for me to request > an NLP lab, or should we just plop it on Google Code? Honestly, Google Code seems like a better fit from what you have described. Neither the ASF in general, nor Labs in particular, seem appropriate. -- Martin Cooper > Thanks, > > benson margulies > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
