Hi Thorsten,
Is there are still interest to host Droids and sponsor it in
incubation
as mentioned in [2]?
Definitely :-) Meanwhile, we have created a charter [a] and
Droids fits
the "build upon and extend" clause. We will expect it to work
well with
HttpClient 4 eventually, but that doesn't have to be exclusive.
...
I guess shortly I will finish the docu and a simple example (that I
develop for the documentation) and we can then decide how we will
procedure.
I consider the current development stand of Apache Droids as stable
after enhancing the multi-thread feature and finishing the default
implementation. The default droid and worker is a simple crawler that
scraps a webpage and saves the resources to disk. It is highly
extensible and in my current work project I am using 5
different droids that are running very smooth. This droids are
extending
the default implementation and are adding business specific logic.
Some of this droids are connecting to another web site to get some
data
and invoke then the parsing of this data to generate an internal
representation of them and send them to an Apache Solr server.
Another
droids simply crawls a file system to edit specific files with the
result of a database query. I like to start the move to the
incubator with Droids with the
HttpComponents project sponsoring it.
+1 to HC sponsoring Droids' incubation.
+1 here too.
I am willing to participate in the incubation process and help
integrate Droids into HC.
Unfortunately I won't be able to help with the incubation process
myself but I'm certainly happy to foster the final integration into HC
if it turns out to be the best home for Droids...
Cheers,
Erik
