JBoss, The Apache MyFaces CODI team and CDISource would like to propose the Apache DeltaSpike project to the Incubator. We have added the initial proposal to the Wiki[1] and its content is also included below for convenience. There are already a few people who expressed interest in contributing additional CDI Extensions and would like to join this effort. Of course, we are thankful for every helping hand! We are looking forward to feedback and/or questions on the proposal. We already have five mentors, but would very much welcome additional volunteers to help steer Apache DeltaSpike through the incubation process. LieGrue, strub [1] http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/DeltaSpikeProposal Apache DeltaSpike Proposal == Abstract Apache DeltaSpike is a collection of JSR-299 (CDI) Extensions for building applications on the Java SE and EE platforms. Proposal Apache DeltaSpike will consist of a number of portable CDI extensions that provide useful features for Java application developers. The goal of Apache DeltaSpike is to create a de-facto standard of extensions that is developed and maintained by the Java community, and to act as an incubator for features that may eventually become part of the various Java SE and EE-related specifications. Background One of the most exciting inclusions of the Java EE6 specification is JSR-299, Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) for Java. CDI builds on other Java EE specifications by defining a contextual component model and typesafe dependency injection framework for managed beans. It also defines a SPI that allows developers to write portable “extensions” that can be used to modify the behaviour of the Java EE platform, by offering additional features not provided by the platform by default. Apache DeltaSpike builds on this portable extensions SPI by providing baseline utilities and CDI Extensions which form the base of almost all CDI applications. Rationale There presently exists a number of open source projects that provide extensions for CDI, such as Apache MyFaces CODI, JBoss Seam3 and CDISource. Apache DeltaSpike seeks to unify these efforts by creating an “industry standard” set of extensions, combining the best core features of these projects. The project also aims to provide a rich, JBoss Arquillian based (license: ALv2), test environment to ensure that DeltaSpike portably runs in all important CDI environments. Initial Goals The initial goals of the Apache DeltaSpike project are to: * Setup the governance structure of the project * Receive code donations from contributing members * Ensure all donated code is appropriately licensed under the Apache License * Merge and rename code to reflect new project name * Merge code where feature overlap exists * Merge or produce documentation for all modules * Provide simple examples demonstrating feature usage * Produce release/s based on a schedule created by the PMC * Attract contributions from the greater Java EE community and other Java EE development groups Current Status The initial codebase for Apache DeltaSpike will be populated with mature code donations from project members, including JBoss Seam3, Apache MyFaces CODI and CDISource. Meritocracy All contributors have a well established history in the open source community and are well aware of the meritocracy principles of the Apache Software Foundation. Currently the Seam3 project is fortunate to receive the majority of its code contributions from its large community of users. Many of the modules that are contained in the Seam project are led by volunteers from the community, who have both direct commit access, and discretion over the direction of their modules. Apache MyFaces CODI is a subproject of Apache MyFaces and thus all contributors are already familiar with the meritocracy principles. The CDISource project has adopted the principles of meritocracy by the founding developers having control of different modules depending on their contribution to those modules. Community The JBoss Seam, Apache MyFaces CODI and CDISource projects already have well established communities, consisting of many active users and contributors. One of the primary goals of the Apache DeltaSpike project is to unify this community, and by creating a project that is a “single source of truth” for CDI Extensions.
