Nicola,
now, I'm starting to take it personally.
> I think it's bad that he is not willing at all to collaborate.
I tried to collaborate some months ago, but I've found Wings not to be not mature
enough as a base: and you know that. You may think
the opposite, but I carefully evaluated your solution.
> He says he wants "his" code in cocoon.
I never said that, I said:
"Well, in all fairness, I'd like "my" package to enter into the standard Cocoon
distro... partly because I need to feed my ego (the
Nirvana is still ahead of me ;) ), partly because I think that it could be a good
selling point for Cocoon."
This was intended to lighten up the discussion and make it more feely: I wrong was I :(

See above.

Well, I don't know why you deem it ridicolous, but, as a matter of fact, I think
charting to be an easy thing, to be done,
possibily, with ONE class.
Think of it as just a plumbing, an adapter to something doing the real work (in this
case JFreeChart).
> He is not willing to collaborate in any way, and I don't like it.
I wrote:
"Moreover:
1) It could remain in a JAR by itself, or in a block
2) We could propose changes to it under the supervision of a committer, which would be
officially in charge of it
3) We could create mock classes in order to avoid breaking the build in case
JFreeChart is not there
4) We could make IPZS officially donate it to ASF"
Does this mean that "I don't want to collaborate in any way" ? I don't think so.
> As for LGPL, it's really something we should not put in our CVS.
I agree. But you don't need to. Just like you don't need to have an Oracle license to
be able to bind to their JDBC driver.
