Processing of root and infrastructure requests

2003-01-24 Thread hlship
I'm surprised that this requests are handled via e-mail.  I would expect that 
these would be handled using BugZilla, which would centralize the handling, 
help ensure that nothing falls through the cracks, and provide better feedback

RE: Forum Software.

2003-01-24 Thread Patrick Ferdig
I have to disagree.

I'm a lurker on general@xml and general@jakarta, only to keep up on the
latest issues in the community.  the mailing lists are passive for me; I get
the data no matter what and can choose to read or ignore it.  if I had to
depend on active participation, I'd never get around to perusing the forums
just to see what's going on.

for specific module questions (generally tomcat or ant), I access the
archives, and then subscribe to the appropriate list until I'm satisfied, an
then unsubscribe. (gmane sounds like an even better alternative)

an appropriately setup email agent with filtering and threading is the key.
and if MS outlook can handle it, other agents should be able to keep up.

Did a forward already to the infrasctructure, which triggered huge
response ;). Wasn't smart enough to cc general on this. (thought the
request was to commons-dev and couldn't find the mail anymore and
therefor didn't check if my mind was working ok)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is several people, all of whom are pretty busy, and
supporting the Apache infrastructure is done at the expense of their sleep
hours :-).  Sometimes it takes a couple of days.

I will forward the new account request again to make sure it doesn't fall

RE: Forum Software.

2003-01-24 Thread Dominique Devienne
Yes, what you're saying makes sense. From my perspective, being quite active
with ant-user (and ant-dev), but mostly only lurking on apache-general,
commons-users, turbine-maven with occasional posts, I'd say that mailing
lists are better for active involvement, but news is better for lurking and
the occasional question to a list. This is why I thought Gmane would be
ideal for the latter; unfortunately it doesn't allow posting on non-public
lists, like Apache lists requiring registration. Once Gmane implements this
feature, lurking with occasional post will be easy (as I find using news and

So, read the archive. The great thing about mailing lists is ithey're open -
anyone
who wants to can put whatever interface they like onto it - web, news,
whatever.
Don't like the search engine? What search engine would you use if it was a
forum? Why not use that on an archive? Do you prefer the threading in your
favorite forum package to that in an archive? Implement it.

A forum is a closed system, it limits access to a single point, and
eliminates
choice. Rather than stripping functionality away from people who use it just
because you don't like it, ignore those features and implement whatever you
do want.

Not always a "great thing" unfortunately.  Not when a noob posts to the
wrong list, then insists _HE_ is not reading a mailing list because _HE_
accessed the list via a forum from some web site. ;)

Yeah that was my first impulse, to have a PHP interpreter in JBoss so
that we could leverage all the PHP thingies out there.

clearly the problem with PHP is that the guys who do the front end
modules and app DON"T KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT COMPONENTS and the
benefits it brings in caching (see whole argument on EJB in BLUE).
Putting EJB behind the whole mess would be great.  PHP can talk java but
it is out of process so that you go back to serialization and LOSE the
benefit of caching.  Period.  So clearly having the PHP code interpreted
in java would be great as you access the db data in cache.

The problem is that the libraries used need to be ported too and that
becomes a pain.  I am really serious with the porting as Julien will be
payed for this.


That's excellent for site which have allready tons of PHP code and
need to switch slowly from PHP to JSP/Servlets.

Also for sites having PHP on some boxes but didn't have PHP binaries on
the target machine (ie iSeries)





Very late, but...

I think the right approach would be to change the PHP templates to 
ensure that they produce "proper" XML (be it XHTML or whatever language 
suits you) and the use it in a Cocoon Reader, or XSLT-it, or whatever, 
from as far away from the original box as you can stay. If the original 
apps are cleanly written (i.e. with themes, etc.) it should be simple

Instead of importing PHP nightmares into java, you would have to deal 
with (more or less) clean data interfaces.

Don't ever allow anybody to lead you to think that "fixing" legacy apps 
is your problem ;-)

This meta-knowledge has worked a lot for me. It you absolutely must, 
just multiply your wages times 10 and pray ;-)

 Santiago
