I have fax'ed in what I think is the needed legal agreement

the next step is.

As Phil noted, a CCLA has been recorded from you for "Sun's contributions to the River project" (That's nice and open-ended :)


Geir- any guidance here?

Next step is simple - package the code as I noted in a response to Bill, create and attach it to a JIRA.

Next step after that would be for the project to vote the contribution into the project. Formally, that vote would be by the PPMC as Phil noted, but I'd like to suggest that we don't really partition the community that way - when we have a vote, we all vote, and if it does come down to needing to count who the PPMC votes came from to figure out the result, I'd suggest we have a problem (because it means that the PPMC is voting one way, and the community another, and the PPMC should actually be very concerned with such an outcome...)

To do this, the PPMC consists now of the mentors, so I think that not having accounts yet isn't a hurdle. To keep things moving forward, we'll propose a vote on a contribution (let one of us mentors do the first one to include some common custom).

In parallel, we can get committer accounts created.

thanks much -Jim

Hi Geir,

yep - through the CCLA, Artima can license a copy to the ASF.

I've finally prepped these docs, but I'm afraid I need a bit of hand-holding for submitting the code. How should I package ServiceUI, and where do I submit it via JIRA? What should be included in the package? Once I get it submitted, I can stick the JIRA ID on the CCLA itself and fax or mail it (whichever is preferred).

Thanks.

Bill


1) package and contribute via a JIRA

2) submit an CCLA to the ASF Scty where the contribution is noted by JIRA ID (makes it much easier to figure out what is what later...)

3) when the paperwork is done, project votes to accept the contribution

The last step is a way to clearly exercise active oversight on the codebase - it means that people other than the committer that eventually puts the code in SVN are paying attention to what is entering SVN.

Thanks.

Bill

Hi Geir,

What's will be the process for contributing ServiceUI? I am guessing I need to sign a Software Grant and CLA on behalf of Artima, and then perhaps a CLA for myself as an individual too?
