[jira] [Created] (JOSHUA-261) Remove ext directory from source tree

[Lewis John McGibbney (JIRA)]

Lewis John McGibbney created JOSHUA-261:

 Summary: Remove ext directory from source tree
 Key: JOSHUA-261
 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JOSHUA-261
 Project: Joshua
  Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 6.0.5
Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
Priority: Blocker
 Fix For: 6.1


Right now we have a bunch of cofe bundled in to the 
[ext|https://github.com/apache/incubator-joshua/tree/master/ext] directory. I 
don't think any of this code can be shipped with an Apache Joshua (Incubating) 
release so we need to think about a mechanism for removing it and making Joshua 
work in other ways.

Re: GIZA++ Licensing

[Matt Post]

I included a bunch of tools like GIZA a while back in order to make it easier 
for people to build systems. I think that's the wrong approach now, since we're 
focusing on providing black-box systems. So we should remove tools that aren't 
run-time dependencies, like GIZA, and just ask people to install them 
separately.

Re: Joshua Presentation @ApacheCon Core

[Tommaso Teofili]

cool, please share with us the slides if / when you can.
BTW maybe it's useful to mention possible integrations with other ASF
projects [1,2,3].
