James, With my Geronimo PMC member hat on. i've already cast my VOTE (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=geronimo-dev&m=113889773909505&w=2).
Now that i have your attention :) and i have a bit more information that i did not have before, but i still think a standalone BPEL vibrant project is a necessary addition to our aresenal and things should not get buried under layers of projects and become a check mark on a marketing wish list for someone. So reiterating, I would like the donors to work with incubator directly, write a complete proposal with pros and cons, show up with people who will continue working on the project including the existing servicemix community and others who may wish to join and follow the incubator process for setting up a new project given the stand alone nature of the code and its supposed completeness. thanks, dims On 2/2/06, James Strachan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 2 Feb 2006, at 18:36, Davanum Srinivas wrote: > > Folks, > > > > There is no proposal, there is just a zip, unless someone is a > > clairvoyant, we can't figure out things like. > > We were first voting to see if the servicemix community and geronimo > PMC were willing to accept the donation.
