 The attic should be considered only as a last stitch effort, all other

Re: ODF Toolkit may need help

2015-09-05 Thread Greg Stein
If the podling *has* cleared all IP, then I could see allowing it. But we
certainly don't want improper IP residing in the Attic. These aren't Apache
projects until graduation, so don't really belong. I can see releases
strengthening the argument for archival.

Henri should be able to clarify.

[NOTICE] corinthia PPMC+committer -= dortef, franz, gbg, ianc, jani, louis, pmkelly

2015-09-05 Thread jan i
Hereby the official notice that multiple developers have left apache
Corinthia.

I am sad that I as (former) mentor, was not able to keep the community in
apache. A little constructive support from the IPMC had probably prevented
the meltdown.

The developer community continues the teamwork in a new home.

2015-09-05 Thread Ted Dunning
Both Bertrand and I have tried to become involved in this and help avert
this melt-down. There is clearly quite a lot of back-channel happening that
is not visible to the Apache mailing lists and I (and apparently Bertrand)
have been unable to get our sub requests moderated through in time.

It may be that working with Apache processes is not what the majority of
the project wanted as part of their project. Apache is definitely not for
everybody.

I am very sorry to see this happen in this fashion, however. Splits can
happen amicably and do not require high drama. I will continue to try to
piece together what the best course of action is over the next few days
(holiday be damned) and hope that I can get the help of others as well.

To be quite blunt, you have a strange way of getting involved, why totally
ignore the recommendations from the mentors and the development team and
instead try to piece together everything yourself. Did you talk with Dave ?

The reaaignations was sent from each person to private@, the notice is
simple to normal apache conclusion of the resigning, so please do not
accuse the development team of not following rules. It is not illegal for
people to talk together, decisions must be on the ML, and they are.

without telling what happened on private@ i.a.o, I feel you should have
acted when the mentors asked for help, instead of suggesting to reboot the
mentors.

As noted elsewhere, I saw the request from bertrand and he had access
within an hour, I never saw yours (Dennis is also moderator, so he
should/can have seen it), so I do not understand the delay.

This is wrong thinking, I have not heard one of the developers being
unwilling to follow apache rules quite the opposite, please read the ML and
you will see how often e.g. Peter have stated that.

To be very honest the IPMC have had plenty of time to react on the call
from Dave and Me, but decided to react differently. There was a
reason why I resigned as mentor, it was not because I did not want to help
the community, but because the IPMC told me quite clearly how wrong I
was...and just maybe that was the drop that caused the resignations.

Corinthia had a healthy development community, and IPMC decided to ignore
that and support what was seen as a strange interpretor of the apache
rules. Dave told that it would happen and so did I, so you cannot be
surprised.

> I had very high hopes for this project in apache, both because I believe
in the project and in Apache, but I am not alone in saying, the attitude of
the IPMC is disapointing.

It is fine that you and bertrand goes in to help, but it would have been
great if you had supported the mentors and believed what we as mentors told
IPMC.

Sorry for a strong mail, but seeing a Podling go down the drain for
something that should be logical caused me to respond like this.

Ted is doing what he can, and it's only been a few days. We are all
volunteers and do not always have the freedom to drop what we are
doing to give Incubator matters our full attention.

What I wish everyone involved would strive to remember is that
personnel conflicts are inherently difficult and draining, that
mistakes are often made and responses often poorly calibrated, and
that there are real people receiving these emails who may experience
intense emotions as they read them.

PS: Surely this response is imperfect as well.

I don't see any project within the Attic that came there from the
Incubator.

If one did, it should have passed its IP items already.

My opinion on domain names for a project not graduating is that we give it
back to who gave it to us, or if they don't want it back, let them decide
who we should give it to.

2015-09-05 Thread Dave Fisher
Hi Marvin,

Very true. I am sorry that we did not come to the IPMC sooner. Perhaps after my 
second attempt to cool things. Maybe a mentor should use frustration to 
determine when ask for help. Maybe it should not be private@. What if there was 
a mentor@ private ML explicitly for this help? Mentor confidential.

I think the Incubator being separate from ComDev may also be an issue. It can 
take time to grow a community and learn the balance between policy and pace of 
conversation. Apache can not be only policy. To many in the podling it began to 
feel like that - only policy. People asked for that to cool.

Also Apache needs a release policy for binaries that would allow the best UX/UI 
API for the platform to be used even if it is GPL. If you have subscribed to 
legal-discuss the last few months you know why that discussion was impossible. 
If that can be worked out then at least it would help other projects.

Regards,
Dave

Regarding domain names that's good advice. Should retirement happen we can
