Looks like the traffic is picking up on MINA and things are heating up
as we approach 1.0. Initially my thought was to get a separate list
for MINA however I'm thinking it might be best to just see if we can
promote MINA to a TLP. It has out grown its place in directory and
many projects will depend on it. It makes sense to me to see it
acquire a life of its own.
There's a good sized community brewing around MINA. I'd like to see
more people come forth as committers then see if we can get a proposal
before the ASF board on budding off the MINA project. IMHO this is
better than creating a separate mailing list.
Right now it would be good to see who favorrs this? Any comments or
for or against this idea?
I agree with Brett that a TLP might be a bit premature. If going out it
would be fine to me under the commons umbrella for example.
Fact is that as of now, Trustin is to MINA what Brett is to Maven
(without the situation to be really comparable due to past history), but
to me this is the same, it is clear that without them, their respective
project will fall to a more than noticeable halt and users will be left
in the dark for some time until someone steps up.
But it would be better I think to have MINA mail traffic outside Directory.
And it's a first step for the project as well.
