   Project Name: Jillegal
  
  
   1. Abstract:
   GC is one of the time taken operations in Java. GC run anytime, marks,
  swaps and compacts objects at memory. If there are so many live objects,
  managing them by GC leads to overhead. If objects can be allocated
 outside
  of GC, there will be no overhead for the application. The session will go
  through the new method of creating and using object off-heap with no
  additional serialization/deserialization or any other overheads.
  
  
   2. Proposal:
   For off-heap memory, I propose a solution that objects are allocated
 and
  initialized at off-heap instead of heap. Not only object attributes are
  allocated at off-heap, but also object header and metadata are allocated
 at
  off-heap. So while a reference to this object at off-heap is being
  interpreted, JVM knows which class this object references to. You can get
  your off-heap object from an object pool instead of with new operator.
  This object pool allocates a fixed size memory region from off-heap and
  create empty objects with given class on there. These empty objects can
 be
  created as lazy or eager. Another advantage off this technique is that
  objects in pool are layout in memory as sequential. While accessing an
  object, its neighbour objects are also fetched to CPU cache, so CPU cache
  hit rate for sequential object accesses are increased. On the other hand,
  freeing unused objects is responsibility of developer by calling free
  method of object pool which means there is no dead object detection
  mechanism like GC. Therefore, getting all objects from off-heap for whole
  application is dangerous and not recommended. Because, this will cause
  memory leaks. In addition, this technique can be combined with Java
  Instrumentation API. With @FromOffHeap annotation, developer can sign
  classes these must be allocated from off-heap instead of heap. With Java
  Instrumentation API, all new operators for signed classes with
  @FromOffHeap annotation can ben transformed to code that allocates
  objects of signed class from off-heap via object pool. So developer
 doesn't
  change all new keywords for getting from object pool in code. Instread
 of
  this, just sign class with @FromOffHeap annotation and all new
 keywords
  transformed for getting from object pool at class load time. This
 technique
  was used at a real time CDR processing system for Turk Telekom. There
 were
  billions of objects were used. Managing these objects by GC caused to
  performance overhead. For some most used classes, we allocated these
  objects from off-heap instead of new keyword. After some processings on
  them (takes 4-5 hours), we release these allocated memory regions to
  operating system by freeing them. Allocating objects from off-heap pool
  helps us to gain significant execution time performance.
  
  
   3. Rationale:
   In general, off-heap pool implementations are implemented by
  serialization/deserialization to allocated off-heap memory region via
  ByteBuffer class. But this technique leads to extra execution overhead.
  Because while reading from an object, the target object must be created
 by
  deserializing all primitive fields eagerly or only required fields on
  demand and while writing to an object, the attribute has been set by
  application, must be deserialized to allocated off-heap memory region. In
  addition, objects itself is created at heap, so GC knows and tracks it.
  With my solution, all of these overheads are overcomed.
  
  
   4. Initial Goals:
* Allocating objects from off-heap and using them as normal
  on-heap Java object. * Allocating arrays for object types from
  off-heap and using them as normal on-heap Java object arrays. *
  Allocating arrays for primitive types from off-heap and using them as
  normal on-heap Java primitive type arrays. * Allocating strings
  from off-heap and using them as normal on-heap strings. *
  Implementing auto expandable off-heap pool that expands when its
 delegated
  off-heap pool implementation is full. * All features must be
  supported for 32 bit and 64 bit JVM. * All features must be
  supported for Sun HotSpot JVM, Oracle JRockit, IBM J9.
  
   5. Currently Implemented Features:

  on-heap Java object * Allocating arrays for object types from

  == OpenMeetings Project Proposal ==
 
  == Abstract ==
  Openmeetings is a web conferencing solution.
 
  == Proposal ==
  Openmeetings provides video conferencing, instant messaging, white
 board, collaborative document editing and other groupware tools using API
 functions of the Red5 Streaming Server for Remoting and Streaming.
 
  == Background ==
  Openmeetings was developed since 2007 by Sebastian Wagner and willing
 developers. The project ships a release approximately once per quarter. It
 was developed using LGPL license, and developers are currently thinking of
 re-licensing it under Apache License 2.0.
 
  The project started as module by Sebastian Wagner for an ELearning
 platform (Dokeos) and was then split into a separated project. That is the
 reason why there is a strong relation to educational institutions that are
 using OpenMeetings and there are integrations for platforms like Moodle,
 ATutor, Sakai, STudIP or ILias available (
 http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/MoodlePlugins). The relation
 to educational institutions also subsequently lead to some projects funded
 by the EU where OpenMeetings was involved, for example by the
 Swedish/Finnish Centre of Open-Source !OpenKarken (Case-Study about the EU
 project at OSOR.eu:
 http://www.osor.eu/studies/finland-and-sweden-collaborate-using-oss )
 
  The integration and internationalization of the project was a primary
 focus right from the start of the project. Since Version 0.5 there is a
 Language-Editor (http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/LanguageEditor)
 to edit labels, export and import them as XML and you can use those XML
 files for future installations (or contribute it to the community). There
 are currently around 30 languages available.  Since version 0.5.1 there is
 also a SOAP API to integrate !OpenMeetings. We constantly improve this
 SOAP/REST API (http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/SoapMethods)
 with new functionality with a strong focus on security and usability. The
 auth-mechnism is quite similar to OAuth, you create some token and then
 assign rights to the token. (Documentation for Single Sign On:
 http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/DirectLoginSoapGeneralFlow)
 
  The project name !OpenMeetings and logos are inspired by Ludovic Gasc
 who has been the project manager at Dokeos at the time Sebastian split
 !OpenMeetings as separated project.
 
  Red5 Server provides an Edge-Orion-Clustering (
 http://trac.red5.org/wiki/Documentation/Tutorials/EdgeOriginClusteringConfiguration).
  We hope to extend this clustering solution with support for rtmpt and
  rtmps and integrate that into our application as native clustering  option.
 
  == Rationale ==
  Last year most major vendors started commercial web conferencing
 solutions. This is an important part of software ecosystem, and there is an
 urge to consolidate open source development efforts in this direction.
 
  According to several studies demand for synchronous Communication, in
 opposite to asynchronous Communication like wiki's or email, will raise the
 upcoming years. For example Gartner promises that 2011 the market will grow
 20% according to their Magic Quadrant report 2010 (
 http://www.gartner.com/DisplayDocument?doc_cd=205941 ).
 
  Openmeetings is a unique solution in terms of patent purity and
 potentially can grow into solution built on top of the fully open source
 stack. That is why it is a good candidate for consolidating web
 conferencing community efforts.
 
  == Initial Goals ==
  Each of project committers has their own set of goals, but we all share
 the following.
 
   * Move to Apache.
   * Become popular.
 
  To become popular we plan to do the following.
 
   * Improve ecosystem around the project.
   * Improve release process.
   * Improve project testing and stability.
   * Apply modular architecture/SOA for better integration with other
 projects.
 
  == Current Status ==
  We have agreed on applying for the Apache Foundation and

 Apache Callback Proposal
 

 Abstract
 

 Apache Callback is a platform for building native mobile applications
 using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

 Proposal
 

 Apache Callback allows web developers to natively target Apple iOS, Google
 Android, RIM BlackBerry, Microsoft Windows Phone 7, HP webOS, Nokia Symbian
 and Samsung Bada with a single codebase. The Callback APIs are based on
 open web standards. The Callback bridge technology enables access to native
 device capabilities. Utilizing the Callback bridge native plugins allow
 for any type of native access from the embedded webview.

 Background
 --

 Apache Callback is the free software evolution of the popular PhoneGap
 project.

 PhoneGap evolved from a hack that enabled a FFI (Foreign Function
 Interface)
 to an embedded WebView on iOS to a complete suite of tools for tackling
 parity across many mobile device and desktop platforms.

 PhoneGap has always focused on two complementary goals. Our first goal,
 is to see the web as a first class development platform. Not a sandbox
 without a filesystem but a real first class platform that includes access
 to the local system apis, sensors and data, in addition to first class
 tooling such as system debuggers. The second goal of PhoneGap  is for
 the project to cease to exist. This is not a nihilistic sentiment, rather
 we at the PhoneGap project are providing a reference implementation for
 web browsers to assist and guide the standardization process of browser
 APIs.

 The name and trademark of PhoneGap will become the commercial entity for
 the project. The source, code, documentation and related assets will all
 be contributed to the Apache Foundation as Callback.

 The Callback name comes from the event of the same name that is fired
 when the FFI bridge is established.

 Rationale
 -

 The dominate window to the web is quickly becoming devices, mostly phones.
 The manufacturers of devices, creators of mobile operating systems, and
 authors of web browsers are consolidating. (In many cases these are all
 already the same company.) Those stakeholders may see a future for the
 web but their bottom line is not necessarily motivated to participate in
 an open web. It is especially clear that while many of these platforms
 have been seeing some level of strategic neglect in favor of enhanced
 experiences at the price locking developers into their respective
 platforms. The Callback project exists to bring the focus back to an
 open and accessible web.

 Initial Goals
 -

 * License all PhoneGap source code and documentation to the Apache
  Software Foundation. (We already name the Apache license in our CLA.)
 * Setup and standardize the open governance of the Callback project.
 * Rename all assets from PhoneGap to Callback in project src, docs,
  tests and related infrastructure.

 Current Status
 --

 Callback is a mature software project recently shipping 1.0 on July 29,
 2011.

 Meritocracy
 ---

 Callback has always been a project driven by merit and, in a sense, our
 solution is brute force requiring many collaborating developers to
 solve our goals.

 It would be far easier, and perhaps more correct, for the Callback
 project to port a single web browser codebase, and API bindings, across
 platforms but our executable size would be appreciably larger, unacceptably
 so for mobile, and our target abstraction would be only tertiary to
 maintaining a codebase of that size. By relying on the platform browser,
 exposed by the platform SDK, we get a quick win to the browser and only
 have to focus on our bridge. This means the project requires developers
 with proficiency on each platform: collaboration is a natural side effect.

 Community
 -

 The community surrounding Callback is vast, diverse, distributed globally,
 and with all levels of proficiency in software development---the common

 I just saw the plan is to use Confluence for Websites. I think this
 should not be done anymore, the Apache CMS is preferred instead, or
 one could use Maven et al. Was the intention to write Wiki instead
 of Website?

 Cheers

  Hi all guys,
  I would like to propose DirectMemory, a Java OpenSource multi-layered
  cache implementation featuring off-heap memory storage (a-la
  Terracotta BigMemory) originally developed by Raffaele P. Guidi on
  GitHub[1], to be an Apache Incubator project. For those interested on
  knowing more about DirectMemory, you can read Raffaele's related
  blog[2].
 
  Here's a link to the proposal in the Incubator wiki[3] where we
  started collecting all needed info.
 
  As you will note, the list of mentors is in need of some volunteers,
  so if you find this interesting, feel free to sign up or let us know
  you are interested :).
 
  Hope to read from you soon, thanks in advance and have a nice day!
  All the best,
  Simo

Sto inserendo spunti e idee come enhancement nell'issue tracking di github
(come ho sempre fatto) e pensavo anche che un gruppo google potrebbe tornare
comodo, visto che stiamo diventando tanti - ovviamente però se non ci vorrà
tanto per avere jira e mailing list apache lascio perdere... che previsioni
hai?
