Thanks Carl. Let's wait a few days for others to chime in. I would like to see this as a project release rather than a personal one based on AOO code, especially since I think everything needed is in the AOO code base. The bigger issue is the kind of review that is required, and the extra effort in preparing a release candidate, etc. I also think that you are creating a good model and process for spin-outs of useful components from the AOO code base. So this is worth digging into for that reason alone. - Dennis > > >> -----Original Message----- > >> From: Carl Marcum [mailto:cmar...@apache.org] > >> Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2016 06:42 > >> To: dev@openoffice.apache.org > >> Subject: [PROPOSAL][DEVTOOLS] Stage Java BootstrapConnector to Maven > >> Repository > >> > >> Hi All, > >> > >> I would like to create Maven bundles of the source, classes, and > javadoc > >> of the recently added BootstrapConnector [1] and stage them on the > >> Apache Nexus Maven Repository using groupId "org.openoffice" so this > >> would be from the project. > >> > >> If the project consensus is that a VOTE is necessary I will call for > one > >> after staging and prior to publishing, or if not, I will do another > >> PROPOSAL for release. > >> > >> This jar allows bootstrapping the office by passing a string > >> representing the path to the office executable to the bootstrap > method. > >> > >> This code has been available for download from the Forum since 2008 > [2]. > >> > >> I have obtained permission from the author to use the code by our > >> project and under the AL 2.0 license and documented it with the AOO > PMC. > >> > >> If there are no objections to the above proposal by midnight GMT > >> Wednesday February 3rd, then I will invoke Lazy Consensus and > proceed > >> to implement the above proposal. > >> > >> Another option to this is that I publish them as an individual with a > >> different groupId if this is preferred. > >> > >> [1] > >> https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/devtools/bootstrap- > >> connector/trunk/ > >> > >> [2] https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2520 > >> > >> Thanks, > >> Carl > >> > >> > >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- > >> To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > >> For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
