We have had a similar discussion in the ComDev related to Apache
Extras [1], and the consensus at that time was that external projects,
particular the ones that are not compatible with AL2, should be
managed separately, which means that we should not encourage PMCs to
have their official mailing lists receiving e-mails from other
non-Apache GPL projects. If individuals are interested on what's going
on with external projects, they should subscribe to these projects
mailing list as an individual.

Hi Irina,
This seems pretty good indeed. I also saw quite a few positive feedbacks
for them. Before digging in to this, can we ship this as a dependency under

Re: Commit messages from GPL project on ASF list

2013-03-21 Thread seba.wag...@gmail.com
There is a flag in the mail notification to turn of diff's in those emails.
So theoretically those emails don't have to include not even code fragments
of GPL licensed code.
So those emails could become what they initially should have been: Some
simple notification of activity.

We are actually also not interested in what exactly has changed or
archiving external activities.
If anybody is interested in those projects he can catch up with those
involved there.

All we are interested is a "heads up" there is something going on as we
provide integration APIs that 3th parties are using.

There are also a number of more 3th party projects that send those pings.
Basically all projects hosted at apache-extras.org are configured to send a
ping to our list when there was a SVN commit.
http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/hosting/search?q=openmeetings

It is argueable if an Apache developer list is the right place to have such
a "news aggregator" for activities around OpenMeetings.
There might be easy ways to resolve such a conflict. Possibly for example a
Google Group Mailing list. "openmeetings-apache-extras" or something like
that. It does in fact not make a difference, just another mailing list to
monitor :)
It is just a bit an imaginary line that we draw here from my point of view.

Sebastian
