How do you know that JBoss would have worked within Jakarta? Maybe the JBoss developers would have clashed with the culture here, and stopped working. It is possible that JBoss is doing well *because* it is a separate project, outside of the ASF. Regardless, I don't think people have lost out. JBoss exists, people can use it. What would have been gained by making it part of Jakarta? > Think about the synergies between Tomcat and Jboss!!! > Wow! Incredible. You can find synergies anywhere you want.

I would hardly call Jon the "main" man. But he is a member of the PMC which means he gets a vote. And his vote carries no more weight than anyone else's. You really seem to have some personal issues with Jon, how about you take them offline. We all know that Jon tends to be blunt and has a knack for offending people. I believe that Jakarta would be better served if he toned it down. But endless discussions on this list are not going to change anything. The Apache projects are meritocracies, people have influence based on their contributions. Jon has contributed a lot and that is why he is an ASF member. This is how apache works - deal with it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
