We have a rule of thumb here that in order to graduate a component from
the sandbox to commons proper, we need to have 3 committers willing to
work on it (which means more than just "oversight" - more like active
involvement). This is not a hard and fast rule, but something we like
to adhere to. We already have too many "dormant" components that should
be moving out to the attic one day, so we aren't keen on promoting
sandbox components or taking on codebases that we can't generate
committer interest in. So lets see what level of interest we can
generate here for Sanselan. We welcome all ASF committers at commons
and we don't have a tremendously high bar for contributors who stick
around long enough and play nice, so if we can get some volunteers to
express interest, we can move forward.
I think at least all or nearly most of the current Sanselan committers, e.g.
Charles, Philipp and myself will be committed to Sanselan.
Great. That satisfies my only concern. I think the administrative
items can be sorted out fairly easily, so I am +1 for welcoming this
codebase and community into commons. I guess the next step is to
decide whether to start in the sandbox or proper and then kick off a vote.
From my perspective, proper is appropriate as the component has had a
release. I will give others a chance to weigh in on this and then kick
off the acceptance vote.
