I believe we should try sending the proposal to [EMAIL PROTECTED] It appears the voting on HiveMind promotion, for instance, was held on that mailing list Oleg -Original Message- From: Adrian Sutton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2004 2:56 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Commons HttpClient Project Subject: Fwd: [VOTE][PROPOSAL][RESULT] Promote HttpClient to Jakarta Level Hi all, Recently the Commons HttpClient project voted on a proposal to move HttpClient out of Jakarta Commons to become a full Jakarta subproject. The result of the vote is below. It's our understanding that the Jakarta PMC now needs to vote on the proposal as well. Please advise us of any step in this process we're missing. Regards, Adrian Sutton. Begin forwarded message: From: Adrian Sutton [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 29 March 2004 8:47:16 PM To: Commons HttpClient Project [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [VOTE][PROPOSAL][RESULT] Promote HttpClient to Jakarta Level Reply-To: Commons HttpClient Project [EMAIL PROTECTED] The vote has passed. We will put forth the proposal below to the Jakarta PMC to move HttpClient to a Jakarta level project. The vote details are below: +1 votes - Adrian Sutton [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oleg Kalnichevski [EMAIL PROTECTED] Michael Becke [EMAIL PROTECTED] dIon Gillard [EMAIL PROTECTED] +0 votes - Ortwin Glück [EMAIL PROTECTED] Vote thread - http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/BrowseList?listName=commons- httpclient-de [EMAIL PROTECTED]by=threadfromh1919 (0) RATIONALE HTTP is the main protocol used today on the internet. Although the JDK includes basic support for building HTTP-aware client applications, it doesn't provide the flexibility or ease of use needed for many projects. The current package in Jakarta-Commons is a widely used implementation with a strong community behind it. The size of it's community and it's project has significantly outgrown the commons project and a move to a Jakarta level project would provide better support for that community and for the on going development of HttpClient. (1) SCOPE The project shall create and maintain a Java library implementing the client side of the HTTP 1.0 and 1.1 protocol, as defined in RFC 1945, RFC 2616 and RFC 2617. HttpClient also supports the following RFCs. * RFC 2109 for HTTP state management mechanism (Cookies) - an upgrade to RFC 2965 is planned for a future version of HttpClient * RFC 2396 Uniform Resoruce Identifiers (URI): Generic Syntax * RFC 1867 Form-based File Upload in HTML The package should: * Have an API which should be as simple to use as possible * Be as easy to extend as possible * Provide unconditional support for HTTP/1.1 The package is quite different from the HTTP client provided as part of the JDK (java.net.HttpURLConnection), as it focuses on the HTTP methods being sent (instead of making that transparent to the user), and generally allows more interaction with the lower level connection. The JDK client is also not very intuitive to use. The package is used by a wide range of projects both within the ASF and from third parties. These include: * Jakarta Slide * Jakarta Commons Latka * Nortel Networks * HtmlUnit * Jakarta Cactus * JSR 147 * NOSE Applied Intelligence ag * MindIQ's Design-a-Course * ContactOffice * Newknow * de4d2c * Furies * Term Highlighting for Verity Ultraseek search results * Mule - Universal Message Objects * many more. (1.5) Interaction With Other Packages HttpClient relies on: * Java Development Kit (Version 1.2 or later; 1.3 or later recommended) * Jakarta commons-logging (Version 1.0 or later) * Jakarta commons-codec (Version 1.2 or later) (2) INITIAL SOURCE OF THE PACKAGE The initial codebase exists as a sub-project of Jakarta-Commons, in the httpclient subdirectory of the jakarta-commons cvs tree. The proposed package name for the new sub-project is org.apache.httpclient. (3) REQUIRED JAKARTA RESOURCES * CVS Repository - New module, jakarta-httpclient in the CVS repository. *

The vote details are below: I also want to note that I've received replies from Rodney Waldhoff and Sung-Gu. Rodney wants to retain his emeritus committer status but doesn't currently have time to contribute to HttpClient - I assurred him that he can return to full active committer status at any stage. Sung-Gu is keen to rejoin the ranks of active HttpClient committers and apparently is faxing through his CLA at which point we will likely hear from him on this list.
