RE: [JBoss-dev] time is up, where is adam heath?
Bill, Looking at the testimonials page, there doesn't seem to be a really long list of 'large' companies. I see a few that could touch the large category. I try not to take anything to serious. I was just wanting to make a point, that some people in 'decision making' positions might read the archives to see how JBoss is managed internally. Don't we all look at internal management when we want to invest in a product. As far as the big egos , that doesn't really bother me, because I have one to. I think most brilliant people have one. I plan on sticking around. I enjoy helping people who are starting out with JBoss, because the help was available to me when I started.

RE: [JBoss-dev] time is up, where is adam heath?
Let me start off by saying that I don't know what initially sparked this thread, but being an employee of a subsidiary of a very large telco, I can relate to some points Ean Schuessler made. Now, I am not attacking anyone on this list or the JBoss Group, I just want to raise a few issues. For the past 3 months I have been reviewing app servers to deploy some internal software on. When I take my proposals to my boss, he will ask a lot of the questions Ean Schuessler asked. Let's face it, there are many 'large' companies that use open source software (tomcat, struts, linux, postgres, mysql, php, perl,), but there aren't many that are using JBoss. It could be that the reason a lot of them haven't looked into JBoss is because of some of the responses on this list made by the people that are behind JBoss. When a company decides to go with a spefic product, it is a long term investment. The company is looking for stability and longevity in the product. Seeing some threads on this lists turns a lot of people away.

Adam, The reason people don't remember this is because jboss is so easy to deploy already that they feel a deb is unecessary.

So, one can't answer questions on jboss-dev, and be considering giving back to the community? After all, jboss has a community of developers, and if I can answer some other developer's question, we all benefit. > Again, you get what you give. You're in a sea of good developers here. You > would cringe in fear at some of our resumes. You have to build trust and > respect in this community. We have all already done it and you're not doing > a good job of it so far. I have given. Yet it's been ignored. Also, on a side note, I asked several mails ago(not this thread), for a nice, 80 char by 3-5 line description of jboss. A nice, easy to understand description, not filled with too many acronyms and buzz phrases. The content on the jboss website is a little wordy for me to try and condense(I've never been good at marketing). Also, as to the status of the Debianization: I am close to making a public, as it were, release. I've switched both Ean an another internal developer to using my debs. I'm currently working on automatic postgres installation/configuration(few minor tweaks left). apt-get install jboss jboss-jdbc-postgresql, and you'll have a PostgresDS, HypersonicDS, and DefaultDS(that uses postgresql). Without jboss-jdbc-postgresql installed, DefaultDS will use hypersonic. It's all rather slick. I haven't released publically, because as I tweak stuff, upgrades between my internal versions might not work, so I needed to keep a tight reign on the files. Soon, however, soon. ___ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development

So a request for what seemed to be a platform specific distribution of a platform independent project did not go over well and some flamed you. Denigrating the rest of the developer community because of this doesn't add to the quality of the thread. Forgive, forget and trooper on.

Fair enough. - What formal guarantees are there that my contributions will not be used to create a for-profit proprietary product? - What guarantee do I have that JBoss will remain a fair and participatory organization that does not isolate members for purely political or profit-motivated reasons as opposed to matters purely technical? - What actions are underway to migrate JBoss' ownership from Marc to an organization with formal, published by-laws that is managed in an open and participatory manner? - Is there anything akin to the Debian Social Contract in JBoss? A "social contract" between JBoss and its community? (http://www.debian.org/social_contract) Answers to questions like these will determine the extent that we invest in a shared infrastructure or directly hire people to mature the infrastructure ourselves. -- _ Ean Schuessler [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brainfood, Inc. http://www.brainfood.com ___ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development

RE: [JBoss-dev] time is up, where is adam heath?
Ean, Adam Heath is getting flamed because he has been a jerk. You don't go on these lists demanding features and bashing people because certain features don't work to a community of developers who mostly all work for free! I secretly applauded Marc for flaming Adam because I'm sick and tired of winy-ass developers coming on this list demanding things when they have not contributed anything in return. I work hard on JBoss in my free time, and it is a slap in the face when somebody comes around with this kind of attitude. If you want to have that kind of attitude on this email list, you have to EARN that right and privilege. Marc is the source of JBoss. He provides its energy and vision. He gives us focus. I can tell you from personal experience that Marc takes care of those who are contributors of jboss and takes care of them well. He breeds loyalty and always gives back what you put into the JBoss community. There are 2 forms of currency here in the JBoss community. Contributions through code, documentation, and/or answering questions on the user-lists/forums. Or paying JBossGroup directly to implement features. Yes, Adam, may be a good developer as you say, but who really cares? I don't. Unless he contributes some of his solid design experience to our community, I personally have no desire to answer one of his questions.
