  OK, that's three: Mark, Martin and Brett.  Is there any reason to NOT do

  it.

 Count me on the list, I've done a fair amount of Mavenizing already, but
 most of it has been undercover :-)

Ditto. Am prepared to put time into achieving a common lf for Commons.

Couple of complaints about Maven:

1) I don't want to have to build every project [ie figure out weird Sun
dependencies] just to push up a global site change. I can accept this
though.

2) The standard 'project documentation' section gets placed at the bottom
when it's the most important information for a specific project. We
replicate most of this in other sections. This replication can be a bit
odd though, ie) contributors page and the maven generated project team
page.

 I know diddly about the multi-project capabilities of Maven 
 at this point, but I'm kinda hoping it will take care of this 
 kind of thing...
 

No, the problem with Sun dependencies is that, at present, Maven is not
allowed to automatically download them from a publicly accessible
repository. However, this is just something each person needs to setup once
(eg download/obtain javamail 1.2 and put it into
$HOME/.maven/repository/javamail/jars/javamail-1.2.jar), and most of the
JARs are probably lying around on your system somewhere anyway :)

Web Presence for ALL Jakarta Commons components = updates for cache, clazz, jjar

2003-11-17 Thread Dirk Verbeeck
Previews here:
http://cvs.apache.org/~dirkv/cache/
http://cvs.apache.org/~dirkv/clazz/
http://cvs.apache.org/~dirkv/jjar/
cache is a totally new site that follows the dbcp/pool style
clazz  jjar had some existing content and I did just some minimal fix to make 
them buildable. (restyle can be done later)

If there are no objections I'll push them to the site tomorrow.

Again?  The current Wiki is the original one that Andrew Oliver installed.
The new one is MoinMoin, which has (amongst other benefits) the ability to
have a Wiki per-PMC.  That addresses oversight concerns that have been

If said person has demonstrated useful contributions to CLI in the
sandbox, then it seems to me that it would be appropriate to propose that
they now become a Commons Proper committer.

Deciding upon the removal, or otherwise, of components from the sandbox
base on activity alone is not quite right, I think. As Noel pointed out
when he started this thread, there are components in the sandbox that
might have generated a community around them, had they actually been made
visible on the web site.

Personally, I'd prefer to see any given component exist (actively) in
either Proper or the sandbox, but not both. Once a component has been
promoted, it should stay in Proper, and its presence in the sandbox should
be removed. I understand the history in the particular case of CLI, but
I'd just as soon avoid that particular scenario going forward.

Web Presence for ALL Jakarta Commons components

  there is precedent, albeit comatose, in the sandbox 'filters'
  and 'servlet' components.

 Yet another set of components that are not on the Jakarta Commons
 web page (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/).  Did it never occur
 to anyone that projects might be comotose because no one knows
 about them?  I, for one, have code that could have gone in there,
 but I didn't know it existed.

Can we agree on how to handle these projects?  Every project in the CVS
ought to have a web presence.  If there isn't anyting particularly useful
(no one created web content), then we should at least list it with a URL to
its CVS presence.  I think we discussed this before, but no one effected a

If everything were mavenized couldn't we use the multiproject plugin to 
render the entire commons sandbox on its own? Default settings would 
render at least a html shell for those projects that don't have a

maintain a project.xml and someone insert a default one in each project 
that doesn't have one?

IMHO, the best way to handle this is to have ONE mechanism to build ONE
web site for ONE Jakarta project - i.e. Jakarta Commons. Right now, each
component is responsible for putting up its own web presence, and many
folks who drop things into the sandbox do not bother doing that - or even
providing any documentation at all to indicate what it is / does.

If we could decide on one mechanism for generating web content (Maven
would be my choice because it does so much for so little work), and have a
mechanism that would create a unified Commons web site, that would be
great. As you suggest, any component that doesn't have any web content
could still have at least a link to CVS. (Or perhaps there's a way to
generate a minimal Maven site even in these cases?)

The autonomy given to Commons components is nice in some ways, but in
other ways I think it hurts us, and the outside perception of us. I
think it would behoove us to improve our behaviour as a single entity,
rather than simply an accretion of handy bits and pieces.

be fixed?  What if component X has site updates that are in progress and I
publish them prematurely with Y's update.  I'm reluctant to push updates
to the commons website because of the build and the risk for ruining the
entire site.  As it is now, I just ruin my own component.

Of course, all components' builds should work and site updates be
committed in one step but are we certain that will happen every time? 
Especially with people new to the commons?

 
 The autonomy given to Commons components is nice in some ways, but in

Certainly, the differing build systems and websites are a problem.  I'm

working on.

As I understand it, the proposal is to use the multi-project plug-in.  I
believe that you should be able to build just your own, too.  Not sure what
happens if you want to build everything that can build if they don't have
dependencies on ones that didn't build, but that ought to be something that

I'm also willing to help a hand mavenizing the commons (sandbox) components.

What do you guys think about the maven setup of DBCP as example (menu 
layout/content)?

Shouldn't we cleanup the sandbox a bit first?
(tar  rm)
The following components are graduated out the sandbox:
betwixt cli codec
daemon  dbutils digester
discovery   el  fileupload
jelly   jexllang
latka   launcherlogging
mathmodeler primitives
These components/directories can also be removed IMHO:
amend   empty
cjanempty
graph   empty
latka-webappempty
morphos empty
pattern empty
cadastreempty old avalon comp
cvs empty dir
periodicity_1   empty dir
jdbc2pool   moved into dbcp
utilmove into lang  collections
bzip2   moved into IO
altrmi  moved to incubator
jux no real code
armiold altrmi project
httpold httpclient
jpath   old jxpath
joran   only proposal 13 months old
The component template in the proposal directory should also be updated.

One last remark, there is a xmlunit component and there is also a
sourceforge 
project with the same name:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmlunit/

First we should inform all math committers of course.

I will take a closer look tomorrow evening but we should undelete the files in 
the sandbox, backup the proper version, do the move like you described and then 
either redo all changes (including commit log) or do a simple merge.
If there are only a few of them then we can use the commit mails.
The bulk changes, renaming and stuff can be done by merging the backuped fileset 
into the new fileset.

I'm not impressed with the way I moved the math project out of the 
sandbox, its version tree sould have been moved physically up to 
commons. This is a little late now, but we should consider moving 
other sandbox projects from now on in a way that maintains the 
historical information.

 OK, that's three: Mark, Martin and Brett.  Is there any reason to NOT do
 this?  If not, I'd suggest that the three of you coordinate efforts, and do
 it.

Count me on the list, I've done a fair amount of Mavenizing already, but
most of it has been undercover :-)   

Beanutils, Digester, Discovery, Jexl - these projects already have
published Maven sites that are not being linked to.

There are about 16 commits that I made after move, it shouldn't be

You might try grabing the current code from commons proper and
creating a patch againt the sandbox.

I've never tried this; it's just a thought.

+1 for achieving consistency as a first step. If we want to use the Maven
multi-project plug-in, having everything Mavenised first will (probably)
make that easier. (I say probably because I've never played with the
multi-project stuff myself.)

Regarding publishing the sites, I'm not all that worried about that. There
is already a system in place to automatically update the main Jakarta site
periodically (i.e. every few hours), and I suspect it wouldn't be hard to
piggy back on that. Of course, that will be easier when we have one
Commons site to update, rather than one per component, but hey, baby steps
first. ;-)

When I find a few minutes, I'll try to put up a page on the wiki to help
us organise this effort, with a list of tasks that need to happen to get
us where we want to be. (Unless, of course, someone beats me to it! ;)

earlier thread), we can make sure everything is at least listed.
