Newsletter - Request for content

2002-12-29 Thread Rob Oxspring
The end of the month is approaching again and I'm sure that, like me, a
lot of you are focused on celebrating the new year.  Once all that is
over I'd like to post the December issue of the newsletter so if people
can send any reports to me that would be great.  Everyone is welcome to
send summaries of any jakarta issues, those CC'd are so since they
posted last time and are asked for a repeat effort or to try and prod
others on the respective lists into taking over.

In terms of timescale I'd like to pull the drafts together next weekend
and post as soon as additions stop trickling in.  If the timescale
doesn't suit but you'd like to contribute then give me an idea of you'll
have something ready and we can discuss how long we can wait.

In the meantime, thanks everyone and Happy New Year!

Rob

P.S. Big thanks to Otis for beating the content request! As usual!

[Fwd: [VOTE] Tapestry / Incubator]

2002-12-29 Thread Sam Ruby
+1 on accepting Tapestry as a Jakarta subproject under the mentorship of 
Andy Oliver, conditional upon successful incubation.

Next steps would be identifying the list of initial committers, cvs 
tree(s), and mailing list(s).  But this can wait until the incubator PMC 
signs off on the subproject.

Ok, all the votes are in, except for Mind Bridge who I believe is
travelling.  Not unexpected, all the votes were +1.

Once again, we've voted to go forward and move Tapestry towards Jakarta, 
via Incubator.

We're eagerly awaiting word from Jakarta about what the next steps 
should be.

I've attached the proposal again, for reference.  Although we have to
migrate in through the Incubator, it looks like the proposal does not 
need to be changed.

 As Andrew has pointed out, the roadmap into Jakarta is in transition.
Looks
 like Tapestry gets to be the first project through the Incubator.

 Anyway, I believe this is more of a correction than a change of course,
but
 deserves a vote anyway.

 Subject: [Tapestry-contrib] Apache Proposal AGAIN


  Hi All,
 
  The process for accepting a project into Apache has changed.  Now all
  projects need to go through the Incubator
  [http://incubator.apache.org].  It is my opinion that this project
  already meets the criteria for acceptance into Jakarta
  however, the Apache board has added this step as a gate between 
here and
  Jakarta.
 
  I suspect the incubation period will be short.  There is a catch.  We
  will still have to apply to Jakarta after the incubation and
  the process for incubation is not very well defined.  There will be a
  number of bumps in the road and issues to be addressed.
 
  However, I have the utmost confidence in this community and your talent
  and abillity to work together and make decisions.
  I am positive that this will be a fine addition to Apache in the 
end, in
  particular Jakarta.
 
  With that being said, please consider this issue and signify whether I
  should move forward with submitting the proposal to the
  incubator.
 
  Thanks,
 
  -Andy

[0] rationale

Tapestry, currently housed at the SourceForge (http://tapestry.sf.net), is a 
component-based web application framework.  Tapestry falls generally into the pull-MVC 
model of development.

Tapestry is designed specifically around the creation of completely re-usable 
components.  Components can easily be packaged into libraries and distributed within 
Jar files, even when they contain assets such as image files and stylesheets.

Tapestry is organized around an abstraction that isolates application-specific logic 
from the details of the servlet API, such as HttpSession, request, response, URLs and 
query parameters.

Tapestry is highly pluggable, allowing any and all behavior to be customized by 
subclassing appropriate base classes.

Tapestry is specifically not a JSP taglib.  Tapestry uses its own method for 
instrumenting HTML that is extremely non-obtrusive (it still previews properly in a 
WYSIWYG editor).  Tapestry has well specified, separate roles for HTML producers and 
Java developers, and allows them to work together without interfering with each other.

The goal of Tapestry is to shift much of the burden of developing web applications 
onto the framework, and free the developer to work cleanly and effectively without 
concern for the many small details of web application development.  The primary 
function of
