I thought JCR can already handle this. Carsten -- Carsten Ziegeler - Chief Architect http://www.s-und-n.de http://www.osoco.org/weblogs/rael/

I find it a bit diffuse what the project is all about. Is it a sandbox of ideas or some sort of AppFuse for web publishing? Well the main goal is the build a ECM plateform like Alfresco and many others (but with a clean license :-) ) Here is the architecture : http://incubator.apache.org/graffito/architecture.html Is it make sense for you ?

Re: Graffito status
Thanks Jukka, this is the good time to think about that. Due to my daily work, it is not possible to work on all Graffito aspects but I would like to continue to work on smaller components like the OCM tools. I'm just finishing my long vacations and now I'm ready to finalise the OCM doc. When this work is done, the JCR Mapping will be ready for its first release. After a long incubation process, the Graffito community is not yet there and the Graffito goal is too big for a couple of mans. Personnally, I would like to : 1/ Move OCM tools into Jackrabbit. 2/ Depending on the feedback on this discussion : review the Graffito goals, split the projects or retire the project. of course, without this kind of feedback, we cannot take a decision. We can also review the priorities. 1/ Build the first JCR Mapping version. 2/ Review and finalyse the persistence layer (add the JCR support, review the security). 3/ Add new components (workflow, ...) 4/ Build applications (RSS, news management, forum, ...). I think we made an error to build everything on the same time in order to give a small demo the community. This is not good for this kind of project. So Please give us your point of view and we will take a decision after that. br, Christophe sorry for sounding stupid, but what this component do exactly? Object Content Mapping (see on http://incubator.apache.org/graffito/jcr-mapping/index.html) Is the description of the architecture still accurate? yes. The ocm tools can be used in a JCR Graffito plugin to access to a JCR repo (not yet implemented). http://incubator.apache.org/graffito/architecture.html > but what about the rest of the > project? > No activity for a long time Should we do something to try building a more active community around > the project? How ?

Should we do something to try building a more active community around the project? well, it seems to me that Graffito has some very nice approaches, but overall a lot of things seem to be unclear or just half finished. I would suggest to break out the specific components (or maybe even just one) and focuse on them and redefine Graffito as this new focuse. Just my 2 cents Michi The alternative would be to look at retiring the project.
