Then you have a great example with Evan and the path he took to become
a committer. Evan might even be kind of enough to explain this path a
little to help you see what's really required.

It sounds as though we need to start getting people off of 0.14 and
this
means moving the Visual Studio work into trunk. I checked
Sandcastle and
it
looks as though Microsoft finally put it under open-source, so
that's one
area we can tackle for API doc generation. Any volunteers for
Sandcastle
plugin?
We also have toolchains as of Maven 2.0.9. I added the NMaven
support for
toolchains into the trunk, but there still is a fair amount we need
to do
to
fully leverage it. I've got some Maven related work and then am
scheduled
for the .NET support for Nexus. After that, I'll be jumping into
NMaven a
lot more. I think Evan is doing likewise, after he does his insane
San
Francisco to LA bicycle ride next month (assuming he survives). So
next
month, I expect we will have a lot more activity and start trying
to build
the community and hopefully get in more committers. I know a lot of
people
have submitted patches. Thanks for that. We will get it all sorted
out.

Hi Evan,
We definitely require full IDE integration for Visual Studio, as
well as
solution generation, pom generation from an existing solution
file, and
support for signed assemblies.?Generation of the XML docs is another
feature
we'd love to see.?
The developer community that I'm trying to support doesn't want to
leave
the IDE if at all possible, but we would love to pull them into the
Maven-based environment that we currently use for Java builds.
Shane - thanks for the update.? Keep that whip cracking! ;-)

We are getting there. We have a release under our belt. We just
need to
prove that we have a healthy, sustainable developer community
before we
can
graduate. Cracks whip over Evan's back ;)

Hi Caulene,
It would be helpful to understand how your company plans to use
NMaven.
E.g. compile, test, package, etc. Is there missing functionality
that
you
would require, such as IDE integration or solution file generation?
(Note: I'm letting Shane handle the graduation question :) )
Thanks for the feedback,
Evan

Hi Shane,
I'm trying to implement NMaven within my company, and there are
concerns
that NMaven is still an incubator project.? What are the remaining
barriers
for graduation from the incubator, and is there an estimated
timeline??
How
can we help?
Thanks,
Caulene
Thanks,
Jason
