> The community is developing the software, no? The software that's being proposed as the initial source for the ASF project has not been under open source development to date. Almost all of it is code that has been developed and controlled by one group at Sun. There's been active and ongoing community input and feedback, but not community-based development. A critial part of incubation will be evolving to open source development.
Jini.org today hosts many different projects, all developed by different sets of people under various development practices. Many of those projects are now moving to java.net, some to other sites. All of those projects are and will continue to be, to my mind, part of the Jini community. So I see the proposed ASF project as being (a key) part of the larger Jini community (vs the Jini community "moving" to ASF). Having written that, I guess I've just explained to myself why the ASF project should not be merely "Jini", and should either have a different name or an additional qualifier. (As for trademark issues, I'll defer to Jim Hurley to chime in.) - Bob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
