Re: [DISCUSS] real-time communications
On 11/24/10 7:13 PM, Noel J. Bergman wrote: The premise of this discussion is that running Apache projects are *permitted* to engage in real-time communications, so long as they take due care to avoid community problems of exclusion and closed decision making. Did you see Greg's e-mail? "Just bring a summary of discussion points back to the list, along with any recommendations. The list can then sort through it and make decisions." Decisions are not made except on the mailing lists. If it starts to seem that people are being excluded from being an effective part of a decision process, curtail or modify the back-channel communications. We all want strong communities that are inclusive and open. We all recognize that real-time communications pose risks to that. +1 FWIW, ApacheDS and Geronimo had (possibly still have) *very* active IRC channels (logged) where people talked in real-time, just as they might at a Hack-a-Thon. Talking about ApacheDS, yes, we *do* use IRC actively. This is for us the main stream when we are working on some part of the server, plus a way to have a semi-F2F discussion about technical points. But this is like if you are working in an office in front of a collegue : most of the time, you don't chit-chat, you work. And when it comes to make a decision impacting the whole project, then the discussion is moved to the ML. So why are we using IRC for ? Mainly for technical discussions. As an example, here is a short snippet : ... elecharny: kayyagari: I'm wondering if we coudn't describe the tests using JSON [6:38pm] kayyagari: hmm, am thinking of automatic pdu generation in tests for sequences that use components [6:38pm] kayyagari: so only the lowest components need to be tested with hand crafted PDUs [6:40pm] kayyagari: and cause lowest components definitely be small in size [6:40pm] kayyagari: (atleast that is the case so far) [6:45pm] elecharny: what is important is to test that PDU don't crash when there are some missing optional elements [6:45pm] elecharny: the lower components have been quite well tested [6:46pm] elecharny: the main problem with test generation is to write the PUD by hand, [6:46pm] elecharny: and to compute the lengths [6:46pm] elecharny: one thing we can do is to use the DERxxx classes we have in the project [6:47pm] elecharny: you can create a PDU using them, with no issues like creating the lengths [6:47pm] kayyagari: ahah [6:47pm] kayyagari: am trying to computelength() and then encode them to a temporary buffer and later push it to the main buf [6:47pm] elecharny: you can do that [6:47pm] elecharny: otherwise, you can also do : [6:48pm] elecharny: seq = new DERSequence(); [6:49pm] elecharny: seq.add( DerInteger.valueOf( 5 ) ); [6:49pm] elecharny: etc... [6:49pm] kayyagari: aha, will try it, this is helpful [6:49pm] elecharny: and at the end do a seq.encode( outputStream ); [6:49pm] elecharny: you'll get the PDU [6:49pm] kayyagari: cool [6:50pm] kayyagari: this is the class present in shared-ldap? [6:50pm] elecharny: but you won't be able to test cornercase like Integer with no values [6:50pm] elecharny: yes [6:50pm] kayyagari: ok [6:50pm] elecharny: in asn1.der [6:50pm] kayyagari: yeah [6:51pm] elecharny: ok, I have to run, some friends have flown from Boston to paris Nothing fancy, just raw technical convos. But very useful when you have a huge code base and you want to share some informations IRT. We tried to organize Skype sessions 4 years ago, but we never succeeded to get them lasting more than 2 or 3 weeks. The reasons are simple : - with people in South Korea, France and Florida, the TZ pb is almost impossible to solve - as the schedule was very tight, being 15 minutes late just blows the session - surprisingly, no more than 15% of the world population is speaking a fluent english. That does not help when on skype - You always have to find someone to report what has been said, and trust me, a lot of input is lost in the process We decided that it was a waste of time. I still think it's a waste of time, and also a perfect way to split the community in 2 groups : - those who participate - those who are left behind and get frustrated. IRC solve some of those issues : it's easier to understand what a poor english speaker like me is typing, it's easier to get a report and move it back to the ML, and also it's easier to get the discussion on track, without the one who speak louder talking most of the time. -- Regards, Cordialement, Emmanuel Lécharny www.iktek.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org

IMHO, MINA is not really the important part here. It seems to me that the Asyncweb subproject is somehow close to what Deft is proposing. As Asynweb is almost dormant since 2008, I would think that a merge of Deft with Asyncweb is a good approach. Now, as Mohammad said, it's up to the team to decide which part can be reused, or not.

At least, for JSecurity, these conflicts never came up, did they? http://www.juniper.net/security/ That's why so many project go with names from biona or mythology. Given the difficulty and the enormous amount of time spent already, we just wanted to move on to focus exactly on the things you mention, and only worry about changing the name yet again if it was absolutely required by the Incubator to do so. That being said, if the Incubator says "the Ki podling must change its name", then fine, we'll be happy to do so, but most of us didn't want to spend the effort worrying about it unless necessary. To me, it seems neccessary, but this is just my 2 eurocent. It took 4 months to move from JSecurity to Ki, just because, very like this thread, people are *discussing* for ever something which would be immediately solved if common sense was applied : avoid as much as possible any risk, and change the name if the risk is becoming a reality.

There are at least two scenarios: Yup, but I'd like to add a third one: - the podling has voted in a new committer, but only because the committer was 'discovered' by the mentors Whoever 'discover' the new committer is irrelevent, IMO. Now, regarding the 2 scenarii Aaron listed, the first one is probably the most problematic. The second one is likely not an issue, as a project entering incubation is generally coming from the outside with a community (somehow) as it should be accepted only with an existing codebase. So if the people are relucting to vote in a contributor, it may be the mentor's role to suggest doing so. The reason people don't want to vote some new committer, beside the contribution's quality, is this 'ownership' feeling the people have to swallow. Not easy. When you have worked years on a project, finally got it accepted in incubation, and see newcomers posting new code, it's not easy to accept the idea that you don't own the code anymore. It is hard work to keep track of contributors and identify those with enough merit, when you are busy solving licensing issues, releasing and trying to keep your project going. But OTOH, it's easy to track a new contributor, see if he/she is keeps going (just looking at the mailing list, not necessarily evaluating the technical merit), and at some point, just ask the committers about the level of quality of those contributions. Then asking for a vote, or at least proposing it. Wouldn't a community only be ready when they themselves are capable of looking beyond their own coding, contemplate what's happening in their community and take necessary action? Probably. While I understand that Mentors should prod the community into action at times, but shouldn't Mentors also take a step back and let the community become enlightened by themselves? Well, we should not consider mentors as doers, not as flies around the cake. We are shepherds, here : we give directions, try to avoid mistakes, explain 'the apache way', and help as much as we can. If we don't do that, and let the community educating itself, I guess that it will go right in some walls more often than necessary... IMHO, of course.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Apache Aries incubator for Enterprise OSGi
Guillaume Nodet wrote: We have in this proposal a lot of people who are not felix committers and who are not even apache committers at all. They want to work on some code and create a community around it. The way the ASF works means that the incubator is the right place to do so. The only other solution is to develop it in a closed source environment and submit it at Apache when it's done, and i really don't think it's a good idea, given the willingness to do it in open source. The blueprint implementation has been developped so far inside the Geronimo TLP, part of the reason is that some of the people working on it were not felix committers, so it was way easier to work there instead of contributing patches until getting committership.It is very difficult to commit to work on a new implementation of anything when you don't even have commit priviledges. It's ok for patches, but not for a new dev. That's what we have here. We have people here wanting to work on some new OSGi spec implementation, and the only way for them to do so at Apache in to go into the incubator. Having apache committers from a project be granted commit access to another project is not really a problem, as soon as the other project's PMC decide what are the "rules". The new project can also be a Felix subproject, with specific commit access granted to a specific set of committers, if needed. I'm pretty sure that infra can deal with such a granularity. Also the felix PMC can check that the new committers are not committing in the other projects, if needed. So far, this is how we did for FtpServer, SSHd and Vysper in MINA. In fact, Vysper is still in a sandbox, but I can see the moment where it will get out, either as a MINA subproject, or as a TLP. The biggest advantage is that, as all the committers were already working on other projects, and as the MINA PMC was able to check that the project was following the rules (IP, etc), it's far easier than going through incubation. I can see how better it could be for Aries to start as a felix subproject, for many reasons. Even, if Aries was to compete against Felix in any way, it's not a good enough argument. We already have multiple projects in the ASF that do have overlap as it was pointed already multiple times in this thread: mutliple REST implementations, multiple JAX-WS implementations, etc... But the Aries podling does not aim to even provide alternative implementation to what Felix already has, it's goal is to create a community with new people who want to work on that and deliver both implementations of new OSGi specs (such as blueprint and subsystems / applications, jpa ...) and also additional extensions (such as blueprint custom namespaces for transactions, etc...). It would be better to see Felix as a OSGi aggregator (a bit like WS or DB are), with potentially many implementations. It would be so great if Buildr, Ant, Maven, Archiva, Continuum, were all embedded in a Build Tools project, instead of being one of the 70 TLP. From the user PoV, it's difficult to know what they all are doing. This is a bit more general than just Felix, here. We have more than 70 TLP, and this number will continue to grow in the next few years. Why can't we aggregate projects within categories at some point ? For the independance, the only real place I know which provides OSGi components, not tainted with a given framework are SpringSource (though it's open source, the community is not really open) and OPS4J, but I do think it's a different discussion. I restate that the goal of the Aries proposal is to foster a community around some new code implementing some OSGi specs. And I don't think we can do that inside an existing TLP, as we have non apache committers that want to create this code. That's what the incubator has been created for. I'm not sure that because a project has non apache committers, it should be started in incubator, as soon as the TLP can "educate" the project. of course, if all the peope are non apache committers, that's a different story. That being said, the best would be to first check for synergies, then think about creating the poddling if there are not too much overlap.

Re: [PROPOSAL][VOTE] Subversion
+1 Greg Stein wrote: Subversion is a version control system. You probably know it well as it is the version control system employed by the Apache Software Foundation. The Subversion project would like to join the Apache Software Foundation to remove the overhead of having to run its own corporation. The Subversion project is already run quite like an Apache project, and already counts a number of ASF Members amongst its committers. Work on Subversion was originally started at CollabNet; Karl Fogel was hired in January 2000. Jim Blandy, at RedHat, already had an initial design for the storage system, which was incorporated into the FS design. In February Brian Behlendorf invited Greg Stein to contribute his WebDAV experience to Subversion. Ben Colins-Sussman was hired in April 2000 to work on the project. In that same month the first "all hands" meeting was held, where a number of "interested people" came together to talk about the project. Subversion was run as an open source project since the early days. Now, more than nine years later, it retains a healthy community, and has a good number of committers. In the life span of Subversion, several committers have switched employers and have maintained involvement. The committership is diverse, both geographically as well as in terms of employment. The equivalent of the PMC consists of all the full committers to the Subversion project (currently around 55 people). The community uses the voting process also used at the ASF. Releases are signed off by gathering votes/digital signatures of each committer who verified the release candidate. We feel the ASF and Subversion communities are very compatible, witness the cross interest that already exists. There is both a vibrant developer as well as a large and active user community. Technology-wise, Subversion builds on APR, and implements two Apache HTTP Server modules. Note that Subversion has a number of related projects, which are not part of this proposal (e.g. cvs2svn, TortoiseSVN, Subclipse). More information on Subversion can be found at http://www.subversion.org/ and http://subversion.tigris.org/. The Subversion Corporation has a license to all source code, and has CLAs on file for nearly all it's committers. That is, we have all but one or two full committers, and some percentage of partial committers. We have a number of *user-configurable* dependencies which are not compatible with the AL: - Neon, a HTTP client library, used by libsvn_ra_neon, is LGPL. (An alternative HTTP client library, libsvn_ra_serf uses the Serf library under ALv2.) - Qt, KDE and GNOME libraries are also under LGPL-2.1. D-Bus (which is also used by libsvn_auth_gnome_keyring and libsvn_auth_kwallet) is under Academic Free License 2.1 or >=GPL-2. (This support is for integration for KDE and GNOME's authentication providers.) - libintl (This library provides translation support for systems without a proper internationalization library.) - BDB (This is used by the libsvn_fs_base system which stores its data in BDB; an alternative repository system called fs_fs does not have this dependency.) --- Required Resources - Mailing lists - dev - issues - users - private - commits - announce - breakage (see http://subversion.tigris.org/ds/viewForumSummary.do?dsForumId=552) - We will work with the Infrastructure team to transfer the subscriber listings to the new destinations. - Subversion: - We have not made a decision whether we prefer Subversion should be imported into the main ASF Subversion repository or be hosted as a separate repository to enable early testing of the repository code. We intend to discuss this during the Incubation process before the code is imported. It is also understood that ASF infrastructure team may be willing to run custom pre-release Subversion server builds for the entire ASF, so this separate repository option may not be required. - The Subversion source code can be found at: http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/. - Issue tracking - We haven't made a decision between JIRA or Bugzilla at this time and expect this decision to be made as part of the Incubation process. Our current issue tracking system uses Issuezilla (a fork of Bugzilla) and we have not yet decided whether we want to import our previous issues into the new system and will decide this in the course of the Incubation process. - Our current issue tracker is at http://subversion.tigris.org/issue-tracker.html. - Buildbot - We currently use buildbot across a number of platforms and configurations for automated builds and testing. Over time, we would like to migrate these services to Apache infrastructure where appropriate. - Our current buildbot master is at http://buildbot.subversion.org/buildbot/ Note that we request these resources to be at their final l

I see the postive sides of CTR re community and progress, but I think it requires some additional rules, guidelines in order to make it work. As a matter of fact, at Directory, we are using CTR since the beginning, and we have had to define those rules. It's pretty easy : - if it does not compile locally, don't commit - when you commit, always try to do it in a way a simple revert restore the previous state - when doing some heavy refactoring, do it in a branch - add some integration tests early in the process - for new committers, check their commits until they are trustable - define some code rules (syntax, comments, etc) followed by everyone.

I'm watching the issue and perhaps I'll restore the LICENSE file on top of the tree. Please do. If you are not convinced by the complex wording used by the Apache site, just have a look at every ASF project, you will see that the LICENSE file is present in each trunk and tag.

But small communities should (IMO) stick to a single dev@ list until you can't handle the traffic any more. If you started elsewhere with two lists, but your list traffic is still "small", then I would recommend combining them when arriving at the Incubator. It is obviously a call for each podling to make, so I'm simply recommending that all podlings consider the impact of dividing your community when you ask for separate dev/user lists. I believe it is rarely appropriate. And I'm all about consistency. Most (if not all, I haven't checked) ASF projects have separate user/dev lists. We, at Directory, created the users mailing list 2 years *after* exiting from incubation. Until then, we had mainly interaction with developers, not users. Eventually, some of those early adopters became committers. In fact, it's hard to get real users before the project is well established. In restrospect, it was a damn good idea : having an empty user list gives your potential users a bad feeling. Once you have enough real 'users' (quite unlikely if your project is just in incubation without an installed base), then creating a separate list where you actually have daily posts is good.

Re: Again: The Maven Repository
Hi Martijn, Martijn Dashorst wrote: I would therefore continue maintaining the old jsecurity code, and release those outside the incubator, just as normal business for your project. There are options. Maintaining the old repo can be tough, as the repository will be different, and make merges difficult. Another possibility is to deploy the new jars into more than one maven repo : incubator's and current jsecurity's repo. I'd suggest also to rename the packages only when you are almost ready to graduate. This allows you to merge current development and maintenance quite easily. This is only if you intent to keep both subversion repo alive in //. But if users base their development on apache Jsecurity version, they will find it painfull to change the package at the very last moment. Don't know ... What if they release a preliminary version on Apache with the new packages, and make it the base for the incubator developments, so that users can use it straight away and benefit from the new features JSecurity will implement in the near future ? It can alleviate the burden of maintaining two different code bases, out of which one is known to be dead... THe WIcket project did have all code imported into the incubator repo, so we could easily backport features/bug fixes. We just released the artifacts on sourceforge and uploaded them ourselves to the central repo using the outside channels. We *did* make perfectly clear that even though Wicket is in the incubator, that the release wasn't endorsed by nor associated with Apache. You can look at the releases for Wicket 1.2 (http://wicketframework.org/wicket-1.2) to see how we did this. This work too. Depends on the existing user's base, I guess ? The Apache based development (org.apache.wicket) happened in parallel, but for the most part in the same namespace as the old wicket code. We did create a couple of releases inside the incubator to learn how to perform an Apache release. But iirc we never actually published those releases to the greater public. This process worked great for Wicket, but your mileage may vary. In any case, Wicket team made it solid. A valuable experience for sure !

You already have a home designated for it. Seems like incubation can be skipped." Another reason to skip incubation is the possible lost of visibility of the project expressed in [5]: "...The thing is, people looking at HC may just say "Oh, Droids. Interesting" and take a look and join the community, whereas in incubator, who knows, it's might be lost in the noise" One suggestion for this points is suggested in [6]: "I does seem to me like there should be some sort of incubation fast track for a lab project that wants to become a subproject of an existing TLP." The thing that Droids [7] needs now is more exposure, committer with different use cases and different needs for robots and plugins. This is the only way to create a truly "intelligent standalone robot framework". BTW I started an incubator proposal [8]. WDYT about either skipping or fast track incubation or doing the standard incubation? IMHO, a fast track incubation is ok.

On this issue though, its been well debated several times - it s clear that there won't be consensus in the near future - so why should the minority get their way when they lost the vote? If this vote doesn't pass then we need to re-write the rules to define how much of a majority overturns the status quo. Perhaps two thrids, perhaps no negative votes.
