At the end a community vote decides the codebase to adopt or we can as well be left with just one proposal.

This is what I had in mind from the beginning; what do you think?

Repo != a codebase. Its just a spec.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] == a spec Repo == a codebase

I don't think 'forced convergence' of the various potential implementations of that spec is needed..

It's not forced. Repo is just *one* implementation of the spec.


Ruper and Greebo have decided to work together on it.
*If* other developers and codebases want to join, they are free to do so.

To be clear:
*If* Wagon developers decide that they'd like to partecipate, as Jason vaugly hinted, thay are free to do so.
*If* Wagon developers don't want to partecipate, they are equally free to do so.


*If* Maven wants to adopt Repo at some point, Maven is free to do so.
*If* Maven doesn't want to adopt Repo at some point, Maven is equally free to do so.


I hope this is clear enough now.

I personally don't particularly like or even understand this unwillingness to cooperate without even a preliminary discussion or tentative, but this is *my* *personal* opinion, and it's widely known.

This has the *same* thing that has come out about Centipede VS Maven, but I won't be fooled this time into miscommunication ;-)

Last time it happened things went badly wrong, and I *don't* want it happen again. Hence I want to be clear, that there is *nothing* *compulsory* about this.
