Re: [VOTE] [PROPOSAL] Accept OpenAz (Access Control Tools) into the Apache Incubator
of our tools, which should markedly increase with the contribution of the ATT code. Where can I get an open source PDP? and where can I get an open source policy editor? are frequent questions on XACML mailing lists. Inexperience with Open Source While few of the developers have extensive experience with open source, a number of us have long experience in standards making in open consensus-based environments. For example the XACML TC has operated since 2001 based on consensus building, with few, if any votes which were not unanimous. The main challenge to the project will be managing the process with more participants and a more formal process. Homogeneous Developers Currently all the contributors are employees either of companies offering an XACML product or large end users deploying XACML technology for internal use. The positive aspect is that they are all highly experienced senior developers used to operating in a disciplined environment. The disadvantage is that the focus to date has mostly been problems that arise in large scale environments typified by the infrastructure of large corporations. Reliance on Salaried Developers All current committers are salaried developers. However the organizations they work for have a long term commitment to the technology. We hope that in the Apache foundation we will be able to attract new developers to help us address the many fascinating unsolved technological problems associated with deploying ABAC. Relationship with other Apache Projects As far as we can determine, no existing Apache project overlaps with OpenAz in its goals of the technology developed so far. However, beyond the immediate project goals there are many potential opportunities for integration with existing Apache projects. Shiro, Turbine and WSS4J are Java frameworks which could incorporate XACML as the policy language using OpenAz components. Manifold CF, Qpid and Archiva already have hooks to incorporate external access control systems. An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand We hope that becoming an Apache project will not only attract new participants to OpenAz, but will draw attention to the neglected field of access control. As previously stated it has always been our goal to join Apache, the only question was when the time was ripe. Documentation The OpenAz web site is: http://www.openliberty.org/wiki/index.php/OpenAz_Main_Page Java docs can be found here: http://openaz.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openaz/trunk/openaz/test/doc/ index.html Initial Source The AzAPI, PEPAPI and other related code can be found on sourceforge: http://openaz.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/openaz/ ATT's framework can be found on github: https://github.com/att/XACML Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan All the OpenAz code has been submitted under the Apache 2.0 license. The ATT software is available under the MIT license. Over time the project will move to a single license. External Dependencies There aren't any we are aware of. Cryptography OpenAz does not provide any cryptographic capabilities. The XACML Standard does specify some uses of cryptography directly, e.g. digital signatures over policies and others by implication, e.g. authentication via cryptography. Required Resources Mailing lists The standard lists should be sufficient at the current time.The mailing list name will be openaz. Git Directory We propose: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-openaz.git Issue Tracking The project will use JIRA for issue tracking.

John On Thu, Nov 13, 2014 at 4:14 PM, Hal Lockhart hal.lockh...@oracle.com wrote: Abstract OpenAz is a project to create tools and libraries to enable the development of Attribute-based Access Control (ABAC) Systems in a variety of languages. In general the work is at least consistent with or actually conformant to the OASIS XACML Standard. Proposal Generally the work falls into two categories: ready to use tools which implement standardized or well understood components of an ABAC system and design proposals and proof of concept code relating to less well understood or experimental aspects of the problem. Much of the work to date has revolved around defining interfaces enabling a PEP to request an access control decision from a PDP. The XACML standard defines an abstract request format in xml and protocol wire formats in xaml and json, but it does not specify programmatic interfaces in any language. The standard says that the use of XML (or JSON) is not required only the semantics equivalent. The first Interface, AzAPI is modeled closely on the XACML defined interface, expressed in Java. One of the goals was to support calls to both a PDP local to the same process and a PDP in a remote server. AzAPI includes the interface, reference code to handle things like the many supported datatypes in XACML and glue code to mate it to the open source Sun XACML implementation. Because of the dependence on Sun XACML (which is XACML 2.0) the interface was missing some XACML 3.0 features. More recently this was corrected and WSo2 has mated it to their XACML 3.0 PDP. Some work was done by the JPMC team to support calling a remote PDP. WSo2 is also pursuing this capability. A second, higher level interface, PEPAPI was also defined. PEPAPI is more intended for application developers with little knowledge of XACML. It allows Java objects which contain attribute information to be passed in. Conversion methods, called mappers extract information from the objects and present it in the format expected by XACML. Some implementers have chosen to implement PEPAPI directly against their PDP, omitting the use of AzAPI. Naomaru Itoi defined a C++ interface which closely matches the Java one. Examples of more speculative work include: proposals for registration and dispatch of Obligation and Advice handlers, a scheme called AMF to tell PIPs how to retrieve attributes and PIP code to implement it, discussion of PoC code to demonstrate the use of XACML policies to drive OAuth interations and a proposal to use XACML policies to express OAuth scope. ATT has recently contributed their extensive XACML framework to the project. The ATT framework represents the entire XACML 3.0 object set as a collection of Java interfaces and standard implementations of those interfaces. The ATT PDP engine is built on top of this framework and represents a complete implementation of a XACML 3.0 PDP, including all of the multi-decision profiles. In addition, the framework also contains an implementation of the OASIS XACML 3.0 RESTful API v1.0 and XACML JSON Profile v1.0 WD 14. The PEP API includes annotation functionality, allowing

Re: Mentor cleanup
Jukka Thanks for this. I think you'll find me MIA on some others too. I will talk to the other mentors and see which category I wish to put myself on for each of these projects. Paul On Wed, May 2, 2012 at 11:47 PM, Jukka Zitting jukka.zitt...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, To a large extent the Incubator relies on the efforts of our mentors to help podling communities learn the Apache Way and the various ASF policies and practices. Usually this works pretty well, but every know and then we see podlings that are left struggling with little or no mentor help. An unfortunately we don't have very good mechanisms in place for detecting and dealing with such situations. I'd like to start fixing that by first figuring out the extent of the problem and identifying at least the podlings worst affected by such mentor deficit. To do so I started going through the mentors listed for each podling reporting this month (except ones still in their first quarter) and tried to spot any community interactions from the mentors over the past three months on either the public or private project mailing lists. I classified a mentor as active if at least one such interaction (including a report sign-off) was spotted, and inactive otherwise. IMHO someone who doesn't show up with any feedback or other help, not even a +1 to a draft report, over an entire quarter isn't living up to the expectations we generally set on project mentors. If your name shows up as an inactive mentor below, that may be a) a mistake on my part, b) temporary absence for whatever reason, c) a call to action, or d) a reason to consider resigning from mentoring that particular podling. In case of d), such resignation should not be considered a failure (we're all volunteers here), but rather a valuable signal to the rest of the IPMC that new mentors may be needed for that podling. With that background, here are my results for the first batch of six podlings (more to come over the next few days): Airavata - active: Alek Slominski, Ate Douma, Chris Mattmann, Ross Gardler - inactive: Paul Fremantle, Sanjiva Weerawarana Ambari - active: Owen O'Malley - inactive: Arun C. Murthy, Chris Douglas Amber - active, not in status file: Raymond Feng - inactive: Brian McCallister, David Jencks, Gianugo Rabellino, Jean-Frederic Clere - listed in projects.xml: Henning Schmiedehausen Clerezza - active: Ross Gardler - inactive: Karl Pauls, Reinhard Poetz - listed in projects.xml: Gianugo Rabellino DeltaSpike - active: David Blevins, Gerhard Petracek, Jim Jagielski, Mark Struberg, Matt Benson, Matthias Wessendorf Droids - active: Richard Frovarp, Thorsten Scherler - inactive: Paul Fremantle Note that for Amber and Clerezza the the projects.xml file lists a different set of mentors than than the status page. I assume that the status page is more up to date in such cases. We discussed this mismatch a bit in another thread some while ago, but it looks like we need to bring that up again. Also, Amber seems to have invited Raymond Feng as a new mentor, but the status page hasn't yet been updated to reflect this. Raymond, if you're reading this, as a mentor you should join the IPMC to have a binding vote on matters related to the podling. As an ASF member you can simply let me know that you want to join the IPMC and I'll take care of the rest.

[1] http://www.mail-archive.com/general@incubator.apache.org/msg24841.html [2] http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/Nuvem = Apache Nuvem, a cross-cloud application programming interface = Abstract --- Nuvem will define an open application programming interface for common cloud application services, allowing applications to be easily ported across the most popular cloud platforms. Proposal --- * Define an open API that abstracts common cloud platform services to help decouple the application logic from the particulars of a specific proprietary cloud. * Implement the Nuvem API for popular clouds such as Google AppEngine, Amazon EC2 and Microsoft Azure. * Initially focus on User Authentication and Authorization, Distributed Cache, Data Store, Queuing; then extend to other services such as Chat, Logging, and Debugging. Background An important issue for application developers is to avoid lock-in to a specific cloud application platform. By providing a cross-cloud application programming interface that abstracts common cloud platform services, Nuvem addresses this concern and strives to help make applications easily portable across multiple clouds. In mixed cloud deployments, applications need to access platform services across cloud boundaries. Nuvem will make this possible by providing a remote API for these cloud application platform services. Rationale - There are currently no efforts to define a truly open-source API to abstract common cloud platform services. Nuvem strives to create a community around building an open-source cloud application programming interface in a manner that fully allows for tried-and-true open source mechanisms such as user-driven innovation. Initial Goals A Nuvem prototype is currently being developed in an Apache Tuscany sandbox, providing initial support for some cloud platform services from Google AppEngine and Amazon EC2. We look at moving this prototype to the Apache Incubator as the next step to broaden the community, expand the API to support more services and cloud platforms. Current Status The initial code has been developed under the Apache Software License 2.0 by current Apache committers. Meritocracy --- We recognize the importance of running the project as a meritocracy. We are eager to engage other members of the community and operate to the standard of meritocracy that Apache emphasizes; we believe this is the most effective method of growing our community and enabling widespread adoption. Community --- The initial committer list consists of a couple of independent developers. We expect that the project will greatly increase in contribution base, and this is one aspect the project will monitor in becoming ready for graduation. Alignment -- Currently, there are no other Apache projects concerned with building a cross-cloud API for application platform services. We feel that it would be a good complement to the set of Apache projects and could provide them with an API for interacting with cloud application platforms. Nuvem complements Apache libCloud and Deltacloud projects (which both cover provisioning and elasticity in the cloud), providing portability of applications and application services across heterogeneous cloud environments. Orphaned Products -- The Nuvem developers have a long-term interest in use and maintenance of the code

Re: [PROPOSAL] Nuvem Project
The project is being implemented by developers in their independent personal time and is not founded by a specific corporation. Relationships with Other Apache Products Apache Tuscany is currently used to wire different implementations of application platform services to applications and expose these services remotely. For clouds that does not provide a specific application service on their platform, we would work with Apache sibling projects such as Hadoop, CouchDB and Cassandra for data store, or ActiveMQ and Qpid for queueing for example, to close the gap. An Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand -- We seek to build a lasting community around the Nuvem API. The most important reason for proposing this project for incubation is to gain visibility, and to allow contributors to more easily join and contribute to the project. Documentation There isn't much of a documentation available. Initial Source -- The Apache Nuvem prototype has been developed in the Apache SVN repository and is available at: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tuscany/sandbox/sca-cloud-tutorial/ External Dependencies --- Nuvem is written in Java and is currently using Apache Tuscany.

Thanks Paul On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 7:22 PM, Vinayak Borkar vbo...@yahoo.com wrote: Hello, We wish to present a proposal to create a new project in the incubator called VXQuery. Please find below, the plain-text version of the proposal. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Vinayak VXQueryProposal Abstract Apache VXQuery is a language processor that implements the XML Query Language v1.0 standardized by the W3C. Proposal VXQuery (Versatile XQuery) will be a standards compliant XML Query processor implemented in Java. We believe that there exists a strong (and growing) need to process semi-structured data in many applications. The W3C standardized v1.0 of the XML Query Language in early 2007. Since then, a few processors have surfaced (both commercial and open source). VXQuery will implement this standard. VXQuery plans to be the glue that brings together imperative programming in Java and declarative programming in XQuery. The project would enable developers to use XQuery to navigate and transform application objects declaratively in Java applications with minimal overhead. In the VXQuery project we plan to build an implementation that allows users to run declarative XQueries on arbitrary object models. Existing XQuery engines execute queries by translating the user data into some form of XML Object model. With VXQuery, we take the opposing view - Translate the query to work natively on the user's object model. In addition, VXQuery works on top of different XML representations including DOM, Stax, and a space optimized model motivated by Xalan's DTM (Document Table Model). VXQuery will also provide a library that allows application developers to express declarative queries without the need to learn a new syntax. We believe that this will speed up the adoption process. Current Status This is a new project. Meritocracy The initial developers are very familiar with meritocratic open source development at Apache. Apache was chosen specifically because the initial developers want to encourage this style of development for the project. Community VXQuery seeks to develop developer and user communities during incubation. Core Developers The core members of the project are diverse. Vinayak Borkar is an independent consultant. Till Westmann works for a company that would be a potential consumer of VXQuery. During incubation the developers base will be broadened. Alignment XQuery is gaining more traction as a XML management technology and there already are several Apache projects ([WWW] XMLBeans, [WWW] Camel, [WWW] Tuscany) that use or need a XQuery implementation. As no such implementation is available as an Apache project these projects have to rely on external engines. VXQuery can fill this gap and complement the XML support of the Apache Software Foundation. Known Risks Orphaned products VXQuery is new development. Inexperience with Open Source The initial developers include long-time open source developers. Vinayak Borkar is an active contributor to the Zorba project at the FLWOR foundation. Relationships with Other Apache Products XMLBeans is a representation of XML that would be natively supported in VXQuery. Therefore VXQuery can be used as an efficient and Apache-licensed implementation for the [WWW] selectPath and execQuery methods found in XMLBeans. Similarly, [WWW] Tuscany's SDO implementation can be natively supported and VXQuery can be used to provide an [WWW] XQuery implementation for Tuscany. VXQuery can also be used as an XQuery implementation for [WWW] Camel. Further, VXQuery uses the Xerces XML parser and schema validator. A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand We believe in the processes, systems, and framework Apache has put in place. Apache is also known to foster a great community around their projects and provide exposure. While these points are important, they are not the main motivation for choosing Apache to host VXQuery.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Stonehenge
Robert Excellent points: ...The full proposal is here: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/StonehengeProposal.. That says future contributions could depend on proprietary systems such as Microsoft .Net or commercial JEE servers, which IIUC means that some parts of Stonehenge might not be buildable or testable using open source tools. good point apache has developed open source Java stuff for years, even when it was a closed, proprietary platform. but the status of java (closed but no charge) was well and widely known, and open source tools were developed to build and test. this is probably less true in this case. The only pay-for requirement is a Windows OS to run the .NET tools at this point. So for a pure OSS developer, there will be parts of the project which will not be buildable, until MONO implements those parts. However, many Apache projects have Windows builds (e.g. Apache HTTPD), so this won't be unique. 1. There should be no barrier for ports of open source code dependent on a proprietary platform to an open one (for example .net to - hypothetically - mono). +1. I believe that everything Stonehenge is potentially doing is covered by Microsoft's OSPA. Maybe Kamal can comment. One great thing about FOSS is that the code gains a life independent of it's creators. I think that everyone involved needs to be comfortable about this possibility, and accept that it's fine to happen on shore (as part of the project) rather than off shore. +1 2. when developing open source software for proprietary platforms, using open, publicly document APIs is important. AIUI this is the case for .NET +1 3. payment for development tools to contribute to the project may prove a barrier to new contributions. apache has always used open source build and test tools. this allows anyone with energy to dive in and contribute. i would hope that there would be no barriers to supporting open source build and test environments if volunteers stepped up to create and maintain them. I believe that Microsoft already makes all the requirements to build and test the .NET code available to Apache Committers via the MSDN subscriptions it offers. So that is at least a help, if not the final answer. 4. running continuous integration on shore may require licenses. it's important that contributors understand this and don't just start diving in. it may be better to start off shore. +1, tho again an MSDN license should help. We certainly already have some such code in our projects, and I'm no against that - but I'd like the Stonehenge people to keep such parts well separated, to allow people who only use open source tools to benefit from the project as well. pioneering something like http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html#labeling might be useful more widely +1!

[VOTE] Accept Stonehenge into the Incubator
considered a core part of WSO2's offerings and we expect new applications developed to be similarly important. We also intend to utilize these applications to demonstrate ongoing interoperability. The success of Stonehenge will rely on developing a community and we think it offers an exciting opportunity. Inexperience with Open Source The proposed group of committers includes people with varying amounts of experience at Apache, but everyone is interested in the potential of the project and to its success at Apache. The intent is for the existing Apache committers to mentor the rest of the developers. Homogeneous Developers The proposed developers come from n companies. The developers have already experience in working together across company boundaries and welcome input from other developers – either independent, existing Apache committers, or those in companies that wish to participate in Stonehenge. Leveraging the Strong Apache Brand We strongly believe that the ASF is the right place for this project and to develop a community. Firstly, the ASF offers a set of governance practices and models that are independent of any company. We believe this is vital in creating interoperable cross-framework and cross-language distributed applications and systems. We also believe that demonstrating interoperability can be accomplished in the collaborative environment, and that we can help developers and users better understand each others frameworks and code, which will help identify and resolve problems. Although interoperability can be achieved by design, or through private collaborative efforts, we believe forums like Apache offers a valuable alternatives for developers from different companies and technological backgrounds to come together to help increase interoperability between technologies. Documentation Existing documentation for the WSO2 Stocktrader application can be found here: * [WWW] http://wso2.org/interop/stocktrader Initial Source Apache would receive all source and documentation contributions under the Apache contributor's agreements. Contributions of the sample applications (or related materials) do not include any commercially available enabling technologies or standards that may be referenced in the sample applications.applications, or which the sample applications are related to.The WSO2 source is already available under the Apache license here: [WWW] https://wso2.org/repos/wso2/trunk/interop/stocktrader/ External Dependencies As a project demonstrating broad interoperability, the project should encourage the broadest possible implementation of each sample application. We thus expect certain components of the application to be run on open source licensed platforms, on dually licensed platforms, as well as on commercially licensed platforms. The existing Stocktrader code bases variously depend on Apache projects (Apache Axis2/Java, Apache Axis2/C, Apache Maven), on other open source systems such as WSO2 WSF/PHP and Spring (through WSO2 WSF/Spring). Future contributions could depend on proprietary systems such as Microsoft .Net or commercial JEE servers. Cryptography Stonehenge will use the existing Apache technologies (Rampart, Rampart/C, WSS4J) and may leverage other technologies such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle or other frameworks for security and cryptography. There is no code contributed or expectation of contributions that implement cryptography itself.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Stonehenge
Bertrand Great feedback. I think we should keep a clear statement in the SVN and distros that identifies which parts of the project use which dependencies. I also think we should structure the build so that each different framework implementation of each application is a separate build target. We can then put together an overall build that does cross-framework build and test.

Re: Asking for Feedback: CouchDB Graduation
Its not and five active people is certainly viable, but my point really was for the long term viability in case people leave the project. There are plenty of active Apache projects with less than 5 active people, and there are other PMCs that are now inactive. I don't think its necessary for the incubator to get projects to the point where you can guarantee this project will survive forever. I believe our job is simply to make sure that the project meets the same criteria as a current Apache projects. I can compare CouchDB to many existing successful projects.

Re: Asking for Feedback: CouchDB Graduation
I know theres been a push to get projects to graduate, but IMO CouchDB would benefit from growing its community a bit more first. I think that 5 is a perfectly reasonable size, as long as the team is working well. I just voted +1 to Buildr which has the same size PPMC. As I see it, CouchDB : * has continued an existing diverse Open Source community under the ASF model * Added a committer * Done releases * Meets the diversity requirements. * Is growing well To me that is sufficient to graduate.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Stonehenge
Robert sounds like a worthwhile initiative Thanks for the feedback! i like the idea but i do wonder a little whether the practical scope of the project needs some more rounding out I agree it would make sense to help tie down what would make this a successful project, release, etc. Any thoughts on how to make this more concrete? AFAICT (hopefully the committers will jump in and correct any misunderstandings) the project seems likely to consist of independent products, each (ideally) corresponding to a suite of applications target described by a sort-of-specification. Yes. the scope's really pretty broad so i think a little more detail about scaling out would be useful: how would stonehenge approach adding new suites especially when donated from outside the developers group? I guess I imagined that there would be two approaches. One is that someone might develop this outside of Stonehenge and then do a grant. However, I would expect a more likely approach is that someone would contribute via the normal JIRA / patch process. Do you see any issues with either of these?

Re: [PROPOSAL] Droids
=== There is not yet a clear Droids community. Instead we have a number of people and related projects with an understanding that an intelligent standalone robot framework project would best serve everyone's interests. The primary goal of the incubating project is to build a self-sustaining community around this shared vision. === Core Developers === The initial set of developers comes from various backgrounds, with different but compatible needs for the proposed project. === Alignment === As a generic robot framework Droids will likely be widely used by various open source and commercial projects both together with and independent of other Apache tools. Apache projects like Cocoon, Lenya and Forrest are potential candidates for using different droids as an embedded component. == Known Risks == === Orphaned products === Till now only one company is known to use Droids in a productive environment however there is a constant interest in a generic robot framework expressed by various Apache committers. For many potential users the existing tools are to complicated or too much focused on a specific usecase which will help to gain a bigger user base. Once the project gets started we can quickly build the wget style droids to a feature level of existing tools based on plugin development that reuses code from sources mentioned below.

Re: [VOTE] accept Etch into the Incubator
just recently been made publicly available. First in binary form in May 2008 as part of a Cisco product and in open source form in July 2008. === Reliance on Salaried Developers === It is expected that Etch development will be done both on salaried time and volunteer time. Cisco is highly interested in the success and development of an Etch community. At this time, Etch is a core component of shipping Cisco products and is likely to grow over time. Cisco in interested in investing time to support Etch development and use it as a key component in multiple products. It is also expected that non-Cisco developers will become interested in Etch. === Relationships with Other Apache Products === Etch currently depends upon these other Apache projects: Velocity, Maven and Ant. We expect that as Etch becomes available, it will be seen as a very compelling technology and others will begin to depend upon it. === A Excessive Fascination with the Apache Brand === We believe Etch offers much to the Apache brand. We could easily, with the backing of Cisco, take a more independent route and support Etch directly without the Apache foundation. But after much consideration, we truly believe that would be the wrong approach for this technology. As a technology, we believe Etch is very much a kindred spirit of the other software infrastructure technologies currently part of the Apache community: Ant, Velocity, Derby, and others. The technological niche of Etch--platform and language agnostic service definition and binding-is a technology that can be appreciated across a broad range software domains. It is our view that Apache is simply the most appropriate community for the kind of technology Etch represents. == Documentation == Public documents are available. All documentation can be found here http://developer.cisco.com/web/cuae/etch . == Initial Source == Etch has been in development at Cisco since Jan-2007. The system was designed from the beginning to be open-sourced. We consider Etch to be at release 1.0 and ready for production use. We continue to develop on Etch aggressively and a continually adding tests and documentation to accompany the code, in particular around Etch's unique pluggable architecture. The compiler and language bindings for Java and C# are working and functional. Etch will be included in shipping Cisco products in Sept-2008 as a core technology component. The language bindings for JavaScript, Python and C are in development. The Etch development home page is currently hosted a Cisco's developer portal: http://developer.cisco.com/web/cuae/etch . Full source and binary distributions are available there including access to our public subversion repository. == Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan == Apache would receive all source and documentation under the Apache Corporate Contributor agreement. Cisco is the only license holder. == External Dependencies == Java, JavaCC and Velocity are core dependencies of the compiler. The Java language binding depends only on Java. Ant and Maven are used by the build system. For the other language bindings we have the following compile/link dependencies: C# - Microsoft .NET v2.0 (Mono compatibility coming soon) == Cryptography == Etch uses the native capabilities of Java and C# to support TLS as an option for the default Etch binary transport protocol. == Required Resources == === Mailing Lists === * etch-private * etch-dev * etch-commits * etch-user === Subversion Directory === https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/etch === Issue Tracking === JIRA : Etch (ETCH) === Other Resources === None == Initial Committers == Gaurav Sandhir gsandhir at cisco dot com J.D.

In particular, we are looking for an interested Champion. We welcome any and all comments. :-) -- James Dixson -proposal- = Abstract Etch is a cross-platform, language- and transport-independent framework for building and consuming network services. = Proposal Etch is a cross-platform, language- and transport-independent framework for building and consuming network services. The Etch toolset includes a network service description language, a compiler, and binding libraries for a variety of programming languages. Etch is also transport-independent, allowing for a variety of different transports to used based on need and circumstance. The goal of Etch is to make it simple to define small, focused services that can be easily accessed, combined, and deployed in a similar manner. Ultimately with Etch, service development and consumption becomes no more difficult than library development and consumption. = Background Etch was started because we wanted to have a way to write a concise, formal description of the message exchange between a client and a server, with that message exchange supporting a hefty set of requirements. The messaging technology should support one-way and two-way, real-time communication. It should have high performance and scalability. I should support clients and servers written in different languages. It should also support clients/servers running in a wide range of contexts (such as thin web client, embedded device, PC application, or server). It must support anyone adding new language bindings and new transports. It should also be fast and small, while still being flexible enough to satisfy requirements. Finally, it must be easy to use for developers both implementing and/or consuming the service. = Rationale Existing systems were either too slow, hard to use, bloated and/or proprietary. In any case, none fit our matrix of requirements perfectly. SOAP/Web Services offer an interesting comparison by contrast. While Web Services are generally accepted as the de facto standard for cross-platform communication due to strong adoption across many tools and languages, the unfortunate reality is that Web Services have serious deficiencies which make them unsuitable for real-time communications. Specifically, Web Services have no effective way to communicate asynchronously from server to client due to a reliance on HTTP and have very high parsing overhead due to XML message bodies. Furthermore, in some deployments, server-to-client communications are blocked by firewalls. Finally, given any two languages, it is not likely that they both support every aspect of Web Services identically, so it is completely possible to create a Web Service that is not, in fact, cross platform, or language agnostic. Developers of applications that must leverage the capabilities of network-hosted services have a daunting challenge. They must cobble together a heterogeneous collection of services that expose different APIs with different communications technologies just to integrate with the services, essentially spending a great deal of energy and effort on just the basics of inter-service communication rather than core business logic. So the desired state then is when developing applications that leverage the capabilities of dispersed and heterogeneous network services, APIs must be simple, cohesive, and coherent across network services. APIs should be easy to consume by developers regardless of the implementation technology of the service used or the domain a service is being built within- from client-side web applications to complex real-time server systems. Put simply, developers ideally should feel that they are developing to a platform. API development is a much better understood and simpler subject if you are building those APIs to be run _locally_ on a single machine or service. Microsoft and Linux centric API developers have the luxury of the massive assumption that a standard OS is available with a certain set of features, and the API

It's a hard call for me as well. The technical bits are all there, processes followed, paperwork filed, etc. More importantly, the qpid community has been open, receptive to feedback from everyone inside and outside their group, welcoming to new opinions from new people, and respectful of ASF spirit, not just its letter. There are disagreements and debates on various technical matters without hurting the community. That's why I support their graduation. It would have been really nice if one or two more committers from new organizations had been added during the previous few months, but that didn't happen. But I don't think the fact the committers come from a small set of organizations necessarily means there's no diversity. And I don't want to introduce artificial requirements.

Stefan Thanks for the clearly thought out answer. Paul On Feb 4, 2008 5:55 AM, Stefan Hepper [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Paul, I still think it is of value doing RIs at Apache, because it makes the standard that is implemented more open and easier to consume. I also think that the new JCP process allows to do it more inline with Apache rules, however it still requires some special treatment (and some additional patience) as many of the decisions are done via the JSR EG and not on the Apache mailing list. Another major issue is that from the JCP point of view the spec lead is responsible for providing the RI when submitting the final spec and thus needs to ensure that the RI gets finished in time. Therefore the situation that Endre criticizes, that committers from one company are very active in one phase of the project and then disappear, arise if the community is not focused on the new release (e.g. in case of Pluto 2.0), but trying to stabilize and finalize the current version (Pluto 1.1). On the other hand that is also a decision of the community, the more active they are on the new versions, the less code the spec-lead company needs to contribute.

Leo I am a mentor with Tuscany. I'm not concerned about where Tuscany is now... I think its growing well and is progressing towards graduation. However, Tuscany did have a significant fork a while back and this new proposal has completely confused me: basically its a proposal for part of what's already being coded in Tuscany by the two companies who couldn't agree to do it together in Tuscany. As a mentor I feel like raking this up isn't particularly good for Tuscany, but the fact is that the new proposal does need addressing in the light of existing podlings.

I do vaguely remember some kind of problems back in November...what has been happening since http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/November2007 ? cheers, - Leo - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Paul Fremantle Co-Founder and VP of Technical Sales, WSO2 OASIS WS-RX TC Co-chair blog: http://pzf.fremantle.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oxygenating the Web Service Platform, www.wso2.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Meeraj, Jeremy Please read my note again. At no point did I say or imply that BEA led anything. The only thing I said about BEA was: the two companies who couldn't agree to do it together in Tuscany. Is there anything incorrect about that statement? I'm willing to be corrected if I'm wrong.

Of the three committers who decided to leave Tuscany, due to technical differences and otherwise, only Jim Marino was employed by BEA. Myself and Jeremy Boynes were independent committers, though, Jeremy was employed by IBM and leading the development effort when they started on Tuscany. Leading is a bit strong as I always viewed it as a community project. Apart from that I'll second Meeraj here in saying that the fork was not instigated by BEA but sprang from our individual frustrations. -- Jeremy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Paul Fremantle Co-Founder and VP of Technical Sales, WSO2 OASIS WS-RX TC Co-chair blog: http://pzf.fremantle.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oxygenating the Web Service Platform, www.wso2.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [Proposal] NoNameYet - Pluto
Stefan Thank you for you insights and response. Maybe the interesting question is whether you think - based on your experience - if is is really appropriate to try to create a JCP RI as an Apache incubator project? Paul On Feb 1, 2008 11:11 AM, Stefan Hepper [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: here my response to Endre's mail (http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/200801.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED]): about Pluto V 1.x: Due to the JCP process guidelines at that time you could not have early public drafts and thus you are correct that the RI got to Apache very late. However, we discussed this with people from Apache and we also went through the incubation process. It would have always been an option to not accept the project. It is not true that after the JSR was final everything stopped. In fact once we had finished 1.0 there was still work done to get to a more stable 1.0.1 release. After that the pluto community re-structed the code which led to the pluto 1.1 stream, so you can see that it was an active community not only some code drop. Also in my view pluto was a success, take a look at all the projects using the pluto container: http://portals.apache.org/pluto/powered.html. about JSR 286/Pluto 2.0: Besides myself there are 4 people from Apache projects sitting in the JSR 286 EG and now that the JCP supports early public drafts we published early drafts more than a year ago and started the development of 2.0 directly at Apache. It is also based on the new 1.1 codestream that the Apache community created. I think you should also consider the view points of companies donating work and code to Apache. In my opinion it would have been much cheaper for IBM to just put the RI out there on some server instead of going to Apache. We went to Apache because we wanted the portlet standard to be widespread and easy to adopt by everyone.

Re: [Proposal] NoNameYet : Link Error - please use this link
Kelvin, NoNameProposers Maybe no-one has responded yet because no-one wants to ask the hard questions! So here I go: Perhaps you can explain why this effort isn't being rolled into the Tuscany work. There are some obvious reasons why I am confused by this proposal: 1. Tuscany already has the objective of producing code for SDO, and already has code for SDO. 2. Tuscany was another proposal to the IPMC predominantly coming from IBM and BEA employees. 3. The BEA committers left Tuscany and created a fork elsewhere 3. Tuscany has been identified as lacking diversity. Why will this project gain diversity when Tuscany is finding it hard? This move seems designed to make it even harder for both Tuscany and NNYP to get diversity by splitting the pool of potential committers even more thinly. I did read the paragraph on the relationship to Tuscany but I'm afraid I came out more confused. I'm sure there are more hard questions but I think that's enough to be going on with.

Re: [PROPOSAL] Thrift
Niclas I also had exactly the same thoughts on reading the email. I think learning that committership is a position of trust is a key part of the incubation process. So I'm +1 on the proposal, but I would definitely be -1 on graduation if such a scheme were to be implemented during incubation.

Hmmm... I would oppose this for two reasons; 1. Creating boundaries within a project, yet collaborate on the PMC level seems odd to me. Either people are entrusted within the project (committer rights) or they are not (no committer rights). If you think that a Thrift Java programmer will mess up the Ruby Thrift code, then you have bigger problems to deal with, IMHO. 2. Some people will eventually become fluent in more than one of these. Are you now going to start a VOTE on granting access to such member to another part of the project? Who is to decide that? The people involved in that language only or the whole PMC (ignoring for a fact that ASF has rules for this)? I can't see it work in practice. So if you drop that idea, I can vote in favour of incubating this project.

Re: moving a failed incubation project
The main point in this discussion is that not changing the package names is not illegal, but it's definitely uncool and goes against a pretty well adhered to convention. +1 Legally, all we can do is ask them to change the package names and if they don't, there's nothing we can do (at least that's what we're hearing from other folks in this discussion). I agree that's the legal situation. But I'm not even sure we have consensus in this group that we should even *ask* them to change the package names.
