hi oliver, > I noticed the jcrri proposal does not even have an Apache License. I > really have no idea how it relates to the ASF if this is so.
first of all: i am not a lawyer. consider this a disclaimer. ;) the code in jcrri is licensed under a license written by roy fielding based on the Apache 2.0 license which is equivalent to the Apache 2.0 License. the ri, the tck and the spec will all have this licence. > Just for me, Stefan, could you clarify your role in the Slide community, > especially do you see yourself as part of it? If not, what is the role > of the jcrri proposal in the Slide CVS? proposals/jcrri goes back to a proposal submitted by remy maucherat: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg05538.html <quoting_remy> The goals of this proposal would be: - Provide an OSS implementation of JSR 170. - Provide implementation feedback to the JSR 170 expert group, allowing to enhance the specification and fix problems (that's the usual role of a RI). - Provide a more modular architecture for Slide, with the goal of adopting it for Slide 3.x (as with all revolution style proposals, this will of course be subject to a majority vote by all Slide committers, when the proposal is considered to be ready). The WebDAV layer would be able to function on top of another JSR 170 compliant repository, and applications using JSR 170 would be able to use either Slide or WebDAV as their backend. </quoting_remy> my role is to work on the code in proposals/jcrri. also, here's the link to the committer vote: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg05588.html i personally think that slide and jsr 170 are a natural fit. i very much like the idea of slide being the reference implementation of jsr 170 (like tomcat being the reference implementation of the servlet spec). i also find remy's suggested architecture very intriguing: - WebDAV powered JSR 170 client API - WebDAV server layer, using JSR 170 API - Slide core, providing a JSR 170 API on the other hand, i am obviously biased ;) of course i can't speak for the slide community, this is just my personal view. further answering your question: currently it would be arrogant to claim being part of the slide community as i do not work on the current code base (version 2.x) of slide. i am devoted to open source development and if the slide community would decide to incorporate jsr 170 in the next major release, i would gladly offer to contribute and i'd certainly feel very priviledged to be part of the team that develops slide. does this answer your questions? cheers stefan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
