hi cosmin, first of all thx for your work. i'm happy to hear that you plan to continue with the project.
imo rule #1 is just for 3rd party projects to avoid that they use names of apache projects (without the permission of the community) in order to benefit from them. (before apache-extras started we reserved several project names for the same reason.) if other pmc members have objections, we have to think about it. however, we have to think about the future of this project: 1) keep it external at apache-extras (for now) and refactor package names (in this case all myfaces committers would get access as with other apache-extras projects related to myfaces) 2) it continues as myfaces sub-project (e.g. near to other tools like archetypes) esp. with 2) we have to think about a lot of topics (esp. about current and future dependencies). since this project (currently) depends on the success of forge itself (which is still beta), i would keep it at apache extras. it's also easier for cosmin to continue with his work, because he doesn't have commit rights right now. (to keep the community involved, we should continue to use the myfaces dev list and wiki even though it is an external project.) regards, gerhard http://www.irian.at Your JSF powerhouse - JSF Consulting, Development and Courses in English and German Professional Support for Apache MyFaces 2011/8/26 Martinconi Cosmin <cosmin.martinc...@codebeat.ro> > Hi everyone, > > The GSoC program for this year is finished and you can find the current > status of the project at a new > location[1].
