Folks,

Thanks for the great conversation around bringing Rya into the incubator.
If there are no other questions, and if people are happy with the answers
so far, I will announce the vote later today.

[NOTICE] Brooklyn PPMC += Sam Corbett

2015-09-11 Thread Hadrian Zbarcea 
Samuel James Corbett (sjcorbett) was voted as PPMC member for Apache 
Brooklyn. That took place more than a year ago, but nowhere do I find a 
record of the notice to general@. There was an issue with the mail 
servers that month (07/2014) but not sure how related.


Vote thread result:
msgid: 53b2cd8d.4060...@gmail.com

If I am mistaken, this notice is redundant.

Notices of PPMC committer/PPMC votes should go to private@incubator,
not general@incubator.  The IPMC was in fact notified at the end of
June 2014.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Brooklyn 0.8.0-incubating [rc2]

2015-09-11 Thread Justin Mclean 
Hi,

+1 binding

For the source release I checked:
- release files contain incubating
- signatures and hashes correct
- DISCLAIMER exists
- LICENSE has some issues (see below)
- NOTICE is OK  
- No unexpected binary files
- Source files have headers (a few test resources / sample files including java 
files don’t however)

Some issues:
- The LICENSE files is structured a little strangely you might want to make it 
more like other projects.
- In r.js [2] there a number of copyright owners/licenses (most look to BSD 
licenses) that are missing from LICENSE. e.g. uglifyjs, parsejs and base64 code.
- LICENSE is missing sections for dataTables.extensions.js [2], 
jquery.slideto.min.js [3], jquery.wiggle.min.js [4] and possible text.js [5].

Thanks,
Justin

Hi,

I checked:
- incubating in name
- signatures good
- disclaimer exists
- LICENSE is OK (but missing MIT license for normalize.css from )
- NOTICE has "developed by The Apache Software” when it should be "developed at 
The Apache Software”
- All source files have headers
- No unexpected binary files
- Can compile from source
- Tests pass
