please review/update as needed and report back any concerns



I have two concerns about http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/BlueSky:

  

...weekly development summary on this web site:
http://www.p12.edu.cn/ (Currently, only available in mainland of China)...



I think we need a committment from the BlueSky team that all
information and artifacts related to the project will be available
worldwide. I know nothing about how things work in China in this
respect, but having parts of the project segregated is not acceptable,
IMHO. That might make some community members second-class citizens if
they don't have access to everything.

  
Currently, we have built official site of BlueSky, which is located at 
http://202.117.16.176/ .

This website is worldwide available. You are welcomed to visit this website.


...Documentation
All in Chinese now...



In the same vein, we need to make it very clear that all
project-related communications have to happen in english on the ASF
mailing lists and websites. I don't think the ASF would be able to
provide the necessary oversight for anything happening in Chinese,
just as we don't support other languages at the moment.

Sorry if I sound negative, I agree that the goals of the project are
important, but I also see a risk of creating a project that might live
on its own island, with very little ties to the rest of the ASF. I'm
not saying it's impossible, but IMHO we have to make sure that the
necessary agreements are in place before going further.
  
We have already written some documents about project BlueSky. These 
includes technical structure,
source code, compiling instructions and screenshots. All of them are in 
English. More documents are

in preparing.

Re: [VOTE RESULT] Accept project Imperius into the Incubator

2007-12-24 Thread Daniel S. Haischt

Hi,

 -//-

 My biggest concern with this project is lack of community diversity.
 Projects that graduate from Incubation must have a diverse community,
 with no exceptions. I've asked David Kaminsky and the project members to
 explicitly consider, plan and document activities designed to promote
 and build the community.  Project mentors, please reinforce this message
 with the Imperius Project team.


I was just reading the Imperius proposal and the CIM-SPL spec. If I am
not completely getting it wrong CIM-SPL may be used on a firewall/router
system no?

I am asking this question because I recently submitted the Bennu project
proposal [1] to the incubator ML and I think a CIM-SPL implementation
may be re used to abstract for example firewall rules such as iptables
or OpenBSD pf rule systems.
