I re-generated the site, but forgot the final manual step on the server to do 'svn up'.

It certainly is Jean. We need to create a "Steps for exit" document - your list can be a start. We also need a "Steps for establish" document - Roy sent an email list to one of the recent entrants.

Derby post-incubation cleanups: need a site redirect
Could somebody redirect http://incubator.apache.org/derby to http://db.apache.org/derby ? Once that redirect is in place, I'll remove the files from /www/incubator.apache.org/derby . I completed these two steps below and they should be visible the next time the incubator site is built: 1. http://incubator.apache.org/projects/index.html Moved derby from "Currently Incubating" to "Successfully Incubated" table. 2. http://incubator.apache.org/projects/derby.html updated derby.cwiki with link to new website Below is a check list I started putting together for incubator clean-up: [ ] Request repository/karma move from incubator to new location. [ ] Move web site from /www/incubator.apache.org/${PROJECT} to new destination [ ] Request redirect from old incubator URL to new [ ] After redirect is verified working, delete web cruft from /www/incubator.apache.org/${PROJECT} [ ] http://incubator.apache.org/projects/index.html Move project from "Currently Incubating" to "Successfully Incubated" table. [ ] http://incubator.apache.org/projects/${PROJECT}.html update with link to new website Is this list useful to anyone else? and is anything missing that I still need to take care of? thanks, -jean - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[jira] Created: (INCUBATOR-5) status file requirement unclear
status file requirement unclear --- Key: INCUBATOR-5 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INCUBATOR-5 Project: Incubator Type: Improvement Environment: all Reporter: Martin Sebor The Incubation Policy mentions two requirements for a status file: http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Ongoing+Activities%0D http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Use+of+Apache+Resources While all podlings have a status Web page, none appears to provide a STATUS file in the expected location, even though the latter is mentioned more prominently in the policy and reiterated in the weekly Incubator status report -- see below: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/200507.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] It's not clear which of these two files is actually required. This is a request to clarify the policy on this question. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think that there is a misunderstanding as to what the requirements are for a copyright claim. If we want to get into a more complete discussion, the legal-discuss list would be more appropriate, but in short, the above posts are incorrect. Merely reading another work (in the past, even years in the past) is sufficient as a basis for a copyright claim. Basically, to successfully assert a copyright claim, you need to show 2 things . . . Access and Substantial Similarity. Access does not need to be concurrent. There have been cases where the access was MANY, MANY years prior.
