"Healthy" is intrinsically subjective, and as such, unmeasurable, leading to even more debates as to whether or not a project is "healthy". > Apache becomes a breeding ground for different models of open source (bounded > by law), not just "The Apache Way." "The Apache Way" was formulated for a reason, and not only because it more or less works as designed. Other models of open source have different points of failure, some of them being the equivalent of sepiku on sight. > The Apache Way should be about metrics, The major problem with measuring things, is that the only things that get done, are those that get measured. This is most clearly seen in the bankruptcy of ISO-9000 certified organizations, that won awards for their quality control, and measurement in changes thereof. (In some fields of endeavour, ISO-9000 certification is the first step towards an inevitable chapter 7 bankruptcy filing.) > not about philosophy as different paths lead to the same mountain top Somebody failed Buddhist Logic 101.
