I don't think the name change is tied at all to the incubation
status.
Are we ready to call a vote? After much consideration, +1 for ACF.

Any "consensus" on the name change? I am okay with either name.
ACF should
be fine. Presumably the nominal name change is contingent on its
project
status as no longer incubating under Lucene?

Folks,
Lucene Connectors Framework is currently an incubating
subproject of
Lucene. The PMC has indicated that it's not thrilled with the
idea of
LCF being a subproject,
Minor clarification: The PMC hasn't said no at this point, but
it also
hasn't been discussed. Given some of the recent restructuring,
I was
merely speculating privately to Karl that it likely would not
accept it,
but that is not anything official. Not that it needs to be
decided now
anyway.
FWIW, the Board isn't usually happy w/ PMC's that are umbrella
projects,
with separate SVN, JIRA, etc. See the discussions in the
archives
around Mahout, Nutch, Lucy and Tika. When LCF was brought into
incubation, there wasn't as much of a concern as there is now,
so it is
not that LCF did anything wrong. Besides, LCF is really
independent of
Lucene and useful w/o connecting to search and should have it's
own
management anyway.
and that its status should change at some point in the future.
Note
that this status change would be theoretically independent of the
project name, but potentially we'd consider changing the
project name
at
that time as well.
There's beginning to be a considerable amount of content floating
around
that talks about LCF. If there is a possibility of a name
change for
this project, I'd like to open the discussion as to whether we
should
change the name, and if so, what to.
FWIW, the only other possibility I've heard mentioned so far is
"Apache
Connectors Framework".
I think this works well and abbreviates nicely to ACF (of
course, I was
the one who suggested it, so I'm biased). Note, there is no
reason it
can't be called the Lucene Connectors Framework, but that might
pigeonhole it such that people think it only works with Lucene,
which
simply isn't true.
I agree, we should do this change sooner rather than later, if
it is
going to be done.
