About licensing concerns, our first release (0.1.0 RC1) was rejected for this kind of reasons and we *should* have fixed those in 0.1.0-RC2 (as per https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-224). @IPMC: any comments on whether license URL is fine or the full license text should be included for dependencies? I'm also wondering how other projects using the standard Maven Apache release process deal with this, as our DEPENDENCIES file are generated according to that logic. Thanks for any comment!

Re: [VOTE][REMINDER] Release Apache Chemistry cmislib 0.4 incubating
Signatures are ok. LICENSE and NOTICE files look good. I was able to install the egg. But I also found some issues: - Most files have a license header that doesn't match the offical one, see [1]. - The installed egg contains a DISCLAIMER file, also SVN trunk contains one, but the zip and tar.gz don't. - I can't find a branch or tag for this release in SVN. I'd recommend to create a tag for the release, or at least write down the revision number. - Another thing I'm not sure about: You use Sphinx (BSD) to generate documentation and also bundle the themes, including a jQuery (MIT) file. Is it required to add an attribution to the LICENSE file for documentation? Because of the first two issues (license header and missing disclaimer file) I'm -1. Please note that I'm new in IPMC, so please tell me if I'm wrong.

Re: [VOTE][PROPOSAL] EasyAnt incubator
+1 Regards, Alan On Jan 24, 2011, at 9:14 AM, Antoine Levy-Lambert wrote: I would like to present for a vote the following proposal to be sponsored by the Ant PMC for a new EasyAnt podling. The proposal is available on the wiki at and included below: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/EasyAntProposal [] +1 to accept EasyAnt into the Incubator [] 0 don't care [] -1 object and reason why. Thanks, Antoine Levy-Lambert --- Proposal text from the wiki --- EasyAnt Proposal The following presents the proposal for creating a new EasyAnt project within the Apache Software Foundation. = Abstract = Easyant is a build system based on Apache Ant and Apache Ivy. = Proposal = EasyAnt goals are : * to leverage popularity and flexibility of Ant. * to integrate Apache Ivy, such that the build system combines a ready-to-use dependency manager. * to simplify standard build types, such as building web applications, JARs etc, by providing ready to use builds. * to provide conventions and guidelines. * to make plugging-in of fresh functionalities easy as writing simple Ant scripts as Easyant plugins. To still remain adaptable, * Though Easyant comes with a lot of conventions, we never lock you in. * Easyant allows you to easily extend existing modules or create and use your own modules. * Easyant makes migration from Ant very simple. Your legacy Ant scripts could still be leveraged with Easyant. = Rationale = On the Ivy and Ant mailing list, an often asked question is Why Ivy is not shipped with Ant ?. Ant users (and some opponents) complains also about the bootstrapping of an Ant based build system: it is mainly about copying an existing one. EasyAnt is intended to response to both of these requirements: a prepackaged Ant + Ivy solution with standard build script ready to be used. Also taking inspiration from the success of Apache Maven, EasyAnt is adopting the convention over configuration principle. Then it could be easy to build standard project at least for all commons steps (no more need to reinvent the wheel between each projects). The common part should be easy enough to tune parameters without having deep ant knowledge (example changing the default directory of sources, force compilation to be java 1.4 compatible, etc...). Last but not least, EasyAnt is intended to provide a plugin based architecture to make it easy to contribute on a specific step of the build. Build plugins are pieces of functionality that can be plugged into or removed from a project. Plugins could actually perform a piece of your regular build, e.g. compile java classes during build of a complete war. Or, do a utility action, e.g. deploy your built web application onto a packaged Jetty server! = Current Status = == Meritocracy == Some of the core developers are already committers and members of the Apache Ant PMC, so they understand what it means to have a process based on meritocracy. == Community == EasyAnt have a really small community (around 100 downloads per release). It is not a problem as the team is currently making restructuring changes. The team plans to make more promotion after those changes and strongly believe that community is the priority as the tool is designed to be easy to use. == Core Developers == Xavier Hanin and Nicolas Lalev∂¡™ée are members of the PMC of Apache Ant. Jerome Benois is an Acceleo committer, he was a committer in Eclipse MDT Papyrus for two years and he's an active contributor in Eclipse Modeling and Model Driven community. He's a committer on Bushel project now contribute to the Ivy code base. He leads the EasyAnt for Eclipse plugin development. Jason Trump is leading Beet project on sourceforge (http://beet.sourceforge.net/). Jean-Louis Boudart is Hudson committer. == Alignment == EasyAnt is based on Apache Ant and Ivy. Being part of Apache could help for a closer collaboration between projects. The team plans to reinject as much as possible stuff into Ant or Ivy like they've done in the past on : * extensionPoint : kind of IoC for targets (Ant) * import/include mechanism (Ant) * module inheritance (Ivy) = Known risks = == Orphaned products == Jean-Louis Boudart is the main developer of EasyAnt. Other developers got interested in this project and are now touching to every aspect of EasyAnt. Thus the risk of being orphaned is quite limited. == Inexperience with Open Source == Many of the committers have experience working on open source projects. Two of them have experience as committers on other Apache projects. == Homogenous Developers == The existing committers are spread over a number of countries and employers. == Reliance on Salaried Developers == None of the developers rely on EasyAnt for consulting work. == Relationships with Other Apache Products == As already stated above, EasyAnt is intended to

We propose to address certain needs of the project by transitioning to an Incubator Podling. == Abstract == Lucene.Net will be a port of the Lucene search engine library, written in C# and targeted at .NET runtime users. == Proposal == Lucene.Net has three aims. First, it will maintain the existing line-by-line port from Java to C#, fully automating and commoditizing the process such that the project can easily synchronize with the Java Lucene release schedule. Second, it will be a high-performance C# search engine library. Third, it will maximize its usability and power when used within the .NET runtime. To that end, it will present a highly idiomatic, carefully tailored API that takes advantage of many of the special features of the .NET runtime. == Background == Lucene.Net, began as a independent project focused on creating a line-by-line, API for API port of Java Lucene to C#. It continued successfully in this way and eventually became a ASF Incubator project in April of 2006 and graduated as a sub-project of Lucene in October of 2009. The last year has been challenging for the project. The committers who originally lead the project have stopped maintaining it and development has stagnated since June of 2010. The user community has spoken out requesting a change in philosophy and direction for the project, but those requests have been unheeded. This has led to a number of forks outside of the ASF. We would like to bring those forks back in as branches and be responsive to the needs of community without the need for multiple non-ASF forks. The Lucene PMC wants to see the project continue to thrive and has indicated that a return to the Incubator is an appropriate step, with the end goal of building a new team of committers and maintaining a steady release cycle meeting the previously stated goals. Because Lucene is working to move away from being an umbrella project, a long term goal of the Lucene.Net project is to graduate to an ASF TLP. == Rationale == There is great need for a search engine library in the mode of Lucene within the .NET runtime. Individuals naturally wish to code in their language of choice. Organizations which do not have significant Java expertise may not want to support Java strictly for the sake of running a Lucene installation. Developers may want to take advantage of C#'s unique language features and the .NET runtime's unique execution and interoperability model. Lucene.Net will meet all these demands. Apache is a natural home for our project given the way it has always operated: user-driven innovation, lively and amiable mailing list discussions, strength through diversity, and so on. We feel comfortable here, and we believe that we will become exemplary Apache citizens. == Initial Goals (to be completed before Feb 2011) == * Build a new list of committers * Make a 2.9.2 compatible release as quickly as possible (this already exists, it just needs to be packaged correctly) * Update website, documentation, etc. * Create a well documented repeatable and fully automated language porting process * Start a .NET style API branch, either by incorporating some or all existing fork projects or by starting a new branch to this end == Current Status == === Meritocracy === We understand meritocracy and will fully embrace this concept in our project management methodology. One of the proposed committers, DIGY, has been a committer on the current Lucene.Net project since November 2008. Prescott Nasser has been a contributor on the project, submitting patches, documentation, and website enhancements. Three of the other proposed initial committers, Troy Howard, Chris Currens and Sergey Mirvoda are both already actively involved in other open source projects, either as committers of code or in coordination roles. Troy, Chris, Sergey and Prescott are currently committers on a Lucene.Net fork known as Lucere, and as such are intimately familiar with the code base and share a vision for the future direction of the project. Scott Lombard and Michael Herndon are passionate about Lucene.Net as well and have already contributed significantly in terms of project organization and direction and discussions on the mailing
