+1. This'd be a great stat to look into - links to my current job. We tend to be a bit anti IRC in Jakarta as it's a bit of a hidden resource and works poorly with developers around the world - but I'd love to do bug triage sessions on an IRC channel. Make them a scheduled affair - each month go through the bugs or something. > *Has the project met it's goals and purpose?

Is there more that can be done for > these goals and purpose? Yep, we've started calling these ones mature rather than inactive. ORO, Regexp, ECS. Tends to be more common in smaller codebases. --- On the future of Slide - I'll leave that up to the Slide community. Both the 'what's next' and the 'how do we balance with Jackrabbit' seem like important questions - I'm just clueless on them :) Hen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
