But what's wrong with this community building exercise within the Apache?

I honestly don't get what this is going to accomplish if we push Concerted
out AND then get them back.

I also don't get why we're so concerned about this particular community

If there is a read-only GitHub mirror of the in-attic SVN repository subtree, 
will that provide enough history for you?

Or would you actually require a (compressed) dump of the read-only SVN 
repository subtree (not the entire ASF subversion), assuming Apache Infra could 
provide that without creating any unacceptable SVN lock-out duration?

[I am operating on the assumption that the repository in the attic has the

Holy shit no, this is by no means the start of a SCM flamewar, I like
and still prefer SVN very much, we use it at our company extensively.
My problem is really only about the release and incubation part and in
the end, if I'm going to keep my commit permissions to the "current"
codebase and history or not. I simply won't have the time to go
through the release process myself, I thought I have it when the
incubation process started, but it didn't work the last 2 years, so I
guess it won't work the next 2... And with that in mind, I'm just
checking the possibilities to keep any somewhat writable permissions
to the codebase for me.

GitHub is only one possible anchor, which is simply better suited for
my needs than the Attic, because I could fork with keeping the
history. And if the project doesn't succeed the incubation process
now, it surely won't ever leave the Attic again.

And that's fine, but that doesn't necessary mean that you need to "lock
away" the history. But I may completely wrong and it wouldn't be
allowed to even fork a dead Apache log4cxx on GitHub to keep working
on it with the history, even privately?

Hallo Thorsten,

Of course, 2 patches doesn't really make a "committer".  Lots of people
file jira tickets, fork code and patch two things, and never look back at
it.
If it solves their problem, they have other things.  But others probably
have
been making minor fixes or even enhancements for a while and it would be
good to invite them all to subscribe to the dev@ list and share their hopes
and thoughts on log4cxx's sustained success.

Not sure which aspects of ASF's rules you refer to?

If you mean "Projects must ship releases, projects may not point users
at the dev repo - without calling out that this is unreleased code" then if
log4cxx cannot abide, the project needs to be shelved.  The mark stays
at the ASF.  Any fork can pick a new name for itself but it is simply not
"Apache log4cxx" any longer.

If you mean that patches are picked up from github merge requests, vs.
patches must be submitted via Jira, there is no such rule.  If you mean
that it is more convenient to perform git merge requests into an ASF git
repo as the canonical source code tree, that too is being worked on to
simplify the workflow for 'svn adverse' projects.

I'm trying to understand whether we are looking at a cultural refusal to
ever put a post in the stand and say "this is a release, there will be other
releases, but this is our release as of now"?  Or is this simply a matter
of preferring git to svn?  The former is a requirement, the later is easily
adapted as we clarify how the ASF will insist on a true history of the
project development.  That effort is being pursued and Apache log4cxx
can be accommodated, hopefully in short order.

Hadoop does this today working with git, here's their explanation;
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToCommit

There are other rules - invite frequent patch submittors to become new
committers, bring them to the PMC as well based on their contribution,
allow every project participant a voice in the direction of project based
on merit, no a fiefdom.  But I don't expect that was the complaint?

Not familiar with that history so I can't comment.  But Attic code is
abandonware, it exists for others to pick back up, much like we tried
to accomplish by incubating log4cxx.  I'd hate to see that happen if
there are a group of 3+ people who will actively participate in reviewing
and blessing a release candidate, but if Apache log4cxx does not have
those three people, and is not creating any releases, it simply is not
a project.

I can't say whether a read-only git clone of [all] attic code bases is
a worthwhile idea or not.  The code is accessible from svn so I don't
exactly see why it would be impossible.  But the attic code isn't
maintained, it is fodder for a new group to come toget

RE: Help for the Log4cxx podling

2016-01-08 Thread Dennis E. Hamilton
[Not cross-posted]

This is not about the governance issues raised in the discussion.

Technically, I do not understand what is difficult about creating working 
copies of a project's portion of the ASF SVN repository.  It is done all of the 
time, for presumably much larger projects.  If you mean a full backup with all 
history, that is a different matter.  An attic SVN would still have all of that 
though.

In any case, projects now have the option of creating a read-only Git mirror of 
their SVN, and there are a number of those hosted on GitHub, cloned, forked, 
etc.  That could clearly be done for a project with its SVN in the attic.  (I 
have no idea whether the history is as complete as what abides in the SVN.)  
These are not Gits of the entire ASF repo.  The Git mirror has just the 
project's slice.

What is not part of the current use of Git mirrors (whether on an ASF SVN or 
Git) is a way to accept Git push requests at the mirror in a manner that 
sustains ASF requirements for provenance and auditability of contributions, 
with assurance that IP matters are dealt with in accord with policy.  My 
impression is that there is work underway to address that.  However, this 
relates to ASF project governance policies and practices and that may not be 
helpful in how log4xx might be sustained.  It would not apply to a project in 
the attic regardless.

I disagree: I'm doing at least some level of support and merge patches
once a while, depending on their nature and such. The problem now is
that such an amount of work and "community" ;-) would not be enough
for your incubation rules and the Apache way, so you would need to

In the ASF, "creating open source software for the public good" means
releasing it.

I am happy to sign up to mentor the project out of the incubator, but that
should be
a 12 week project, tops.  We would need to see commits from at least three
and
preferably five committers.  Who are these people?

Forty forks means 40 prospective committers.  Nothing is solved by "moving"
the project to github if their changes are never moved back to the ASF.

It's not enough to simply apply all of the merge requests; the ASF strongly
holds that we don't do 'one man shows'.  We work to attract many committers
and prevent the benevolent-dictator-for-life and hit-by-a-bus conundrums.

So if the project demonstrates that they can 1. recruit at least a handful
of the
github fork maintainers to participate at log4cxx and sign on as
committer/ppmc
members, and 2. assemble a 0.11 release candidate, review and vote to
release
it, I'll jump on to ease the transition to a full fledged PMC.

If that PMC wants to move from svn to git as their primary development
history,
work is in progress at the ASF to facilitate that.  There is a functional
place to
further develop the software here.  But if these two things can't happen,
this is
past time to land in the attic for others to run with elsewhere.

Either it is effectively in the attic with no code changes anyways, or
these code
changes aren't being released to the public, but users are being directed
to use
the bleed dev repo, which is against the spirit of the ASF's release early
and
release often policy.

What is your Incubator wiki login?  (Not the same as your Apache ID.)

RE: Help for the Log4cxx podling

2016-01-08 Thread ulrik.pedersen
As a user (and small time contributor once) of log4cxx, I would vote for a move 
to a central hosting on github. I don't mind what happens to the project in 
terms of the apache organization as I use log4cxx as a stand-alone library - 
and I guess many others use log4cxx in the same fashion. However, putting it in 
a read-only repo is effectively declaring it dead and forcing everyone who uses 
it to either create individual forks or rewrite code using alternative 
libraries. That will be a shame for a library that probably for most users (me 
certainly) Just Works :-)

The trouble on github at the moment is that there are up to 40 potential forks 
on there with no central one - as the github.com/apache/log4cxx is very 
out-of-date...

Just my £0.02 worth...

Cheers,
Ulrik

Access to Incubator Wiki

2016-01-08 Thread James Sirota
Hi,

Can someone give me access to the incubator wiki so that I can append the 
Metron progress report to it?

Thanks,
James
