As you reminded us above they're simply trying to facilitate compatibility to accomodate their users which is admirable. Also as Doug pointed out they're in control of both namespaces so they can handle it without conflict. However my primary point was when you start allowing this practice even just a little for benign, positive reasons (as is the case for Scoop), it can quickly lead to chaos through misuse, and result in community discord. It's not easy to quantify/clarify whether the usage is meant for good, used carelessly without consideration, or used explicitly to gain a commercial advantage. It's going to start ruffling feathers at some point or another when accusations start flying. Some folks are going to be pissed due to disruptions, some are going to be on a witch hunt, others are going to have valid concerns, some just won't care, while those accused will fight vehemently feeling unjustly attacked. In the end, this feels like a pandora's box. We just saw how damaging this can be with the recent Lucene/Solr incident concerning commons CSV. [Just using a reference here to minimise public discussion of a private list thread.] So is there a way we can allow the practice to occur at a minimal scale with positive gains, without the potential negative impact? My rather weak suggestion of having projects explicitly announce the cases where they "infringe" on another project or party's namespace just raises awareness and makes it so the potentially "infringing" party exposes it's intentions before accusations start flying. I'm sure there are better solutions to this problem where we minimize the administrative overhead and the negative impact. I just could not think of a better way at this point. -- Best Regards, -- Alex

But I hear ya. The social situation is very different. My impression was that there were two issues. First was the technical issue of a namespace conflict. It seems as though there may be good reasons why exceptions should be made on a case-by-case basis, as Doug implies. The second was the community issue of potentially advantaging a commercial entity; this response seemed to satisfy people: http://s.apache.org/mz In fact, Sqoop already has a plan in place to completely remove com.cloudera.* namespace from its contents via the next major revision of the product. The work for that has already started and currently exists under the branch sqoop2 [3], tracked by SQOOP-365 [4]. We hope that in a few months time, we will have feature parity in this branch with the trunk, which is when we will promote it to the trunk. I would think that any generic policy would need to take both of those issues into account.

Re: Thoughts on Incubator board reports
Jukka's recent email and activity are precisely what I was hoping for when I joined the chorus of voices for new leadership. On this thread, I have a thought or two. Of the podlings I have known, most required very little supervision. The single largest exception has always been getting the first release or two through the gauntlet. I wish that there was a way to recruit the expert scrutinizers to help out up front. What if a podling could recruit Sebb or one of the other release aces to help them set up their structure in the first place? I bet it would be less work to teach than to critique. Not all of us are so good at this particular topic. The second largest exception is pushing projects to grow into sustainable communities. It's not easy. It's not guaranteed. Report review strikes me as a pretty good solution there. Historically, I know we've had podlings with other and more interesting problems, and that disengaged mentors only make that worse. But join Leo in thinking that good report reviewing is a great step all by itself. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org

Hey hey, Jukka this is sounding so timid :). You know, I think I'll break rank and tell you what I really think. You may want to sit down first. You [1] did a *kick ass* job on the last report. Kick. Ass. [2]. Kapow! As well as spending the time to look through and digest it all beforehand on e-mail, you made sure we had discussion about it. Which btw, wasn't a flamewar, which was nice, too. I know that prompted me to do a similar run-through on half of your list (I ran out of steam/time...I guess I'll start at the bottom next time) and I simply found nothing to add, but I did do much more overseeing by following along than I would have done if, say, I had gotten nagged a couple thousand times more.

The differences between the cases should inform any policy. In one case you have the inclusion of an older package name for back-compatibility by the same community that created the older API. In the other case you have the inclusion of an API that conflicts with one managed by a different, still-active community.

Request for an early review of an potential Apache OpenOffice release
Hi, the Apache OpenOffice podling project is moving forward to a first release that is long expected by the OpenOffice.org community and users. You know that Apache OpenOffice is the continuation of OpenOffice.org and that the project is very huge, has a very long history and a very huge user base all over the world. IP clearance work to conform to Apache standards" or "to conform to the Apache Way and we would like to get some early feedback if we are in shape with the Apache guidelines for a potential release. We have prepared developer snapshots over the past several weeks for our project members to test and review. This developer snapshots can be found under Source package http://people.apache.org/~jsc/developer-snapshots/src_releases/srcrelease.html Binary package https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/AOO+3.4+Unofficial+Developer+Snapshots The mac version is also signed and the check files can be found in the download directory directly http://people.apache.org/~jsc/developer-snapshots/macos/r1296433/ NOTE: Be careful with the binary packages and save your office user profiles before testing. Existing OOo 3.x installations will be overwritten. We provide full install sets to test system integration and upgrades. Currently we are not able to migrate installed extensions. And there won't be bundled dictionaries but you can download a dictionary from the migrated extensions repository (http://aoo-extensions.sourceforge.net/). But of course we are working on this. Please rename your user profile before testing our snapshot build, and re-rename your user profile after reinstalling a stable OOo version. Right now we are focusing on show stopper issues but nevertheless we would like to invite you to review the source packages and also the binary packages if they fulfill the Apache requirements (e.g license, NOTICE, ...) We know that we have no release candidate (RC) right now and that it would require some work by you. But because of the complexity of the project we would very much appreciate any kind of early feedback at this time. And the main goal is to fix potential issues early and to save time later on when we have a first RC in place.

And that seems understandable, however IMHO the lazer beam focus we now have on the quarterly reports doesn't necessarily help get better or active oversight, in fact it makes it even easier for mentors to just pop up every few months and mention/sign a report and then disappear for the rest of the time. Looking at how many poddlings struggle to get votes on releases maybe what we need to have is a bit of actively retiring mentors so we can get a clearer picture of who is really providing oversight on poddlings. ...ant - To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
