I was not subscribed to that list, and had accepted Grant's assessment of our status change.

I'll commit this part shortly, but leave this issue open until we are happy with CHANGES.txt I'll look at the wiki page and see if theres anything that comes to mind, good idea. > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Why don't you go ahead and commit, and I'll do the rest? As far as JIRA process is concerned, I usually do request that bug finders create their own tickets, short-circuiting this process only in the case of truly nasty problems. ;-) I also try to discourage "Omnibus" tickets, because those can't readily be dealt with by any straightforward process I am aware of. I've been toying with writing up ticket guidelines in the "How to contribute" wiki page for some time - if you have any thoughts about this, love to hear them. > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

I'd feel more comfortable if you wrote the text for this! I could commit this as-is, or you could modify the patch, either way. I don't think we should retroactively create any new JIRA issues for things that have been done. but related to the topic i had a few ideas in general regarding JIRA (not trying to suggest any hard-and-fast rules either): If a user reported something on the user list (strange behavior, bug, api problem, javadoc typo, whatever) that inspires a code change, i think we should always open a jira ticket, no matter how trivial. this way its easy to give the user credit for contributing. Along with the previous, its also good to suggest users to create their own tickets in JIRA if at all possible. This gets them sucked into signing onto JIRA. Finally, for issues that might require a lot of fairly mechanical/simple changes like the name change issue, we can always open an issue: this gives an opportunity for additional contributors to do some of the work. A good example of this is LUCENE-1257, which was generification of Lucene API for 3.0. Lots of people stepped up and contributed help, even risking code reviews from our picky Generics Policeman. I'm probably that last person that should be suggesting these things, but it was just some general ideas that might invite more contributions. > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

The name change, however, is indeed official. We did finally conclude that we'd change all the package names and class names that had LCF in them to ACF as well. If you think there should be a ticket that covers that work (which has already been committed), just let me know. > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

I see the name change is still a bit up in the air... if there is no problem committing this as-is, I can do it later, and we could add docs/JIRA issue for this afterwards (whatever the name turns out to be)? > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

I'd also consider adding something about the change from LCF to ACF, and the associated package changes, since that will invalidate people's setups. > add contributors to CHANGES.txt > --- > > Key: CONNECTORS-93 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-93 > Project: Apache Connectors Framework > Issue Type: Task > Components: Documentation >Reporter: Robert Muir > Attachments: CONNECTORS-93.patch > > > As mentioned on the connectors-dev@ list (change the format of CHANGES.txt), > I propose we modify CHANGES.txt > to give credit to contributors who have given bug reports, comments, patches, > etc. > I'll volunteer to go thru the mail archives and jira issues that are marked > 'resolved' and upload a patch here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
