The question is more general than working with another ASF project. The Mina people are great and we are working with them.
Your points are absolutely valid for ASF projects and for other open source work that has similar release process that we could work within. The concern the Qpid project was having is what happens when you are doing everything that you can but you need to release a version of your software but cannot get one of your dependencies to release a new version. Do you wait for them to release? Cheers -- Martin Ritchie Qpid On 17/11/06, Jukka Zitting <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Did you already consider working with the MINA community to have a proper release as your dependency? I don't think it should be too hard to do, the main issues being: 1) Technical: Is the code good enough for a release? You already think the code is good. 2) Community: Is there a release manager? If no-one in the MINA community is interested, there's no stopping one of you from volunteering. 3) Oversight: Is the PMC ready to approve the release? This should really be up to the MINA PMC to decide.
