Hi Ittay, I'm unclear as to whether we'll be able to distribute it on the Apache site. We'll need to review the license on all packaged software against Apache policies.
My intention is definitely to synchronize the release of the all-in-one JRuby distribution with the official Apache Buildr release and worse case, distribute it via separate channels and link to it from our site -- not unlike what we do with RubyForge/GemCutter. If you have suggestions, I'm all ears. alex On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 12:37 AM, Ittay Dror <[email protected]> wrote: > Any plans on making the distribution available in the site?
