Re: [CONF] Apache Camel > Scalate

2011-07-21 Thread Eric Johnson
Dan's unilateral decision to scrub the Scalate component from the Camel site, while simply adding the others to a new table, does not send the "we are happy about good external components" message. It sends the message that Dan is the new Camel cop and we need to do things his way or else. I'm su

Re: [CONF] Apache Camel > Scalate

2011-07-20 Thread Eric Johnson
My understanding of what Dan is saying is that since the Scalate component is not developed as part of the Apache Camel project it cannot be documented in a way that makes it look like it is a part of the Apache Camel project. It, and any similarly developed 3rd party components, should be clearly

Hadrian, As it turns out, not anyone with a signed CLA can edit the Camel wiki. The Apache Confluence wiki allows each community to determine who can edit the pages in their space. I went create a page listing the ideas/issues around a site update and was confronted with a "Permission Denied" page.

I want to make sure I understand a few of the issues here: We want to make it as easy as possible for people to make changes to the documentation. Before a person can edit the wiki they need to sign an icla. We don't let anyone change the code who hasn't been vetted by the community and made a com

I'm a committer on CXF and have been helping out with the ServiceMix site redesign. I'm interested in helping Camel maintain its Web site as well. Are there any tasks that need tackling that I can get started on? -- Principle Technical Writer Phone (781) 280-4174 Skype finnmccumial E-Mail emjohn.
