You're right, I acted recklessly, while at 37 I should have been wiser.
Moreover, I needlessy damaged the community in doing so.
To add insult to injury, I sent the notorious message without consulting Piero De
Nicola, hence, indirectly damaging that innocent
man as well.
I should have been much wiser than that... indeed Nirvana is ahead of me :(
Since I hold the view that apologies aren't enough, I will try to repair the damage
I've done:
1) Bring the JFreeChartTransformer (aka ChartTransformer) under the aegis of
CocoonDev... (provided CocoonDev board accepts it, of
course)
2) Start collaborating with the Wings project on a common XML schema for charts, hence
letting the user choose which transformer
suits him/her best (provided, of course, Wings committers agree)
3) Setup a new Cocoon-GIS sub-project in CocoonDev (yes, yes, I'll ask CocoonDev
board first)
4) Donate, to the prospective Cocoon-GIS project (see 3), a transformer to connect
Cocoon with ArcIMS, a proprietary web-mapping
package
Do you deem it enough to put the relationship back on course ?
