[VFS] SCM cleanup, Deleting Tags and Branches

Hello, I was struggling a bit with a backport of fixes to 2.0. There are some tags and branches in the repo which are not self explanatory. I found out that tags/commons-vfs2-project-2.0 seems to be the 2.0 release source. It looks like branch/VFS-2.0 and branch/POMRELEASE are unused. Can we act

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

Hello, well I dont think we need to dig into the past, no matter if a RM is assigned or not, a release will happen when people get around to do it. And since the people who can do it are already overloaded it can get tricky. And I think the biggest roadblock is the large number of changes which h

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

I acted as release manager for 2.0. I did that because at the time I had a need for Commons VFS, I had a need to fix a bunch of stuff that didn’t work in 1.0, and I had the necessary privileges to do it. Since that time I have been focused on Log4j 2 almost completely with what little time I h

RE: [ALL] Do we need help?

Sorry, I thought a RM had been assigned[1]. I don't think I have any patches for open tickets, the tickets that I am interested in (487,500,530) already have patches waiting to be applied. Additionally, if there are open issues w/r/t HDFS integration, then I can address them as well. The only HDF

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

Hi Thomas! I use Jelly almost every week in Jenkins plug-ins. Talked about the forked repo they have in the project, and even told them I could spend some hours every week to fix the necessary issues.  Even though it is possible to use Groovy in Jenkins views too now, there are so many existing

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

Hello, I dont think we have a release manager for VFS, but I am still working on Bugs. If you have a patch for a Bug which affects you, please upload it to Jira. We can need all helps to prune them down. Right now we have 3 blockers open. 2 in the area of FTP which I do not have much experience wi

Re: [csv] Object Mapping Proposal

I thought the original proposal was more akin to Java beans property editors, i.e. simple parsing of objects from a string representation. There are any number of libraries that support this kind of basic string-to-object conversion. Actually flatfile has some support for this in its built in Morph

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

Hi all, Two things from me, a relatively new member of the community. I think much more effort needs to be on pushing things through code-review and to completion. There are many issues in LANG that have been awaiting review for well over a year or two. This means the commiters are no longer aro

Re: [ALL] Do we need help?

My 2 cents as an outsider, for what it's worth. I have contributed code to VFS and we use VFS in Accumulo. I and several others have asked for a 2.1 release, or at least a plan/roadmap so that we know what has to happen before a release can occur. I even offered to help in any way possible[1].

RE: [ALL] Do we need help?

It feels overwhelming sometimes sure, but for me I just realize that this is just a self inflicted feeling. We are all volunteers here with no contractual or "hard" expectations. We could do better at managing expectations for certain and recruiting new blood, yes. But that takes time away from

Re: [csv] Object Mapping Proposal

Hibernate is all about mappings. Yes,  it sits on top of JDBC but that just means you need a CSV or perhaps Excel driver. There is a lot more value in creating/reusing a simple CSV JDBC driver than creating another custom mapping/binding framework which duplicates some features of a JDBC driver

Re: [TEXT] Problems with the site build

TEXT is a Sandbox component, so it should inherit from the Commons-Sandbox POM. That may or may not help, but ought to be done to prevent accidental deployment. What exact commands have you used? On 29 November 2014 at 11:31, Benedikt Ritter wrote: > Hi all, > > I've tried to create the site f

[TEXT] Problems with the site build

Hi all, I've tried to create the site for commons-text but the site build doesn't work. It always prints out "maven.site.deploy.skip = true: Skipping site deployment" [1]. I've tried to override this via -D but it doesn't work. Can anybody help? TIA! Benedikt [1] https://github.com/apache/maven-

Hi all, currently I feel really overwhelmed by the stuff I'd like to do at commons and the little time I can spend for it. Here is an (incomplete) list of the things I'd like to work on: - get a new release of the build plugin out of the door for auto creating README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md - Work
