Gump presentation
Hi !
I have made some progress and I'm wondering where to send my code is it
ok to just add a sub catalog to the existing svn tree if so do I have
permisson to do so and where should I put that folder if not.
Where can I mail it? to this list? With a specifik format for the mail?
Adam talked about [jira] but couldn't give me a good answer to that.
Since this is my first commit to a openscource project I'm also
interested in information of whats needed in my commit. I know I need to
have a README with installation and requirements. Also I need a TODO to
describe what more I think can/should be done to the project.
The project is build by ant to a .war archive should I make some .sh and
.bat files for the build part. Should I have it as a .war or should I
leav it as an open archive?
(.war = web archive used to make the deployment on an application server
easyer. packs the webapplication to one single file that you deploy)
just eager to get my code out there and to get some responce and
feedback on it.
regards
Thomas

snail-mail, yes. courts require ink (or toner) on paper.

Is there a chance that I can mail it somewhere rether then fax it? I
don't have a fax so that would make it a lot easier for me.

I don't have anything to add to what Leo said, go use JIRA.
BUT ...

At the risk of being boring - I don't think we have received a CLA,
yet. Thomas, have you faxed in the CLA? If yes, do you find your
name on this page <http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html> -
anywhere? If not, please (re-)submit it. Without a CLA you'll never
get commit access to SVN.

3) When you attach something to a JIRA report, you can mark it as a
contribution to the ASF explicitly, so we'd be save to commit it even
without a CLA by Thomas.

I guess that should be
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/gump/branches/Gump3/name-for-your-code-here/
I say you get to pick a fancy name :-). One suggestion would be
dynagump2, but feel free to be a little more creative.

Jira has a web interface. Don't send it email.
I suggest:
1) go to
http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa
and create a user account for yourself.
2) go to
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUMP
click on "Create a new issue in project Gump"
create a new issue (gump project, dynagump component) describing what
it is your uploading (eg summarise your readme or whatever). Don't
need to be verbose.
3) create a zipfile or tarball containing *all* your sources and project
files but no binaries (eg if you have an ant script that can generate
the stuff don't include it) or servlet engine. Do include eg the jars
that you use like velocity.jar or whatever that are not provided by
the servlet engine.
The developer submitting your patch will probably not commit
everything in the tarball, and that might be the best possible way to
"get" this.
4) create a new attachment to the jira issue with your zipfile
Someone'll take a look at your tarball and try and run it. People will
add comments to the jira issue (maybe they have trouble getting your
stuff to run on their systems or whatever). You can revise the attachment.
Documentation on what jira is and how to use it is at
http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/v3.2/issues.html
I'm not sure whether we decided whether Gump SoC students get svn
accounts yet or what the policy is.
Two reasons for using jira:
1) there's a checkbox that says "I submit this under my CLA"
2) its how open source often works (eg you load your stuff into an issue
tracker)

Actually, what you're doing is submitting a "patch". Committing means
interacting with the CVS or subversion repository directly. There's lot
of guidelines on how to submit patches for different projects:
http://www.google.com/search?q=submit+patch+site%3Aapache.org&btnG=Search&hl=en&lr=
a lot of the process is the same for different project. How to make
commits is documented in many different places as well, eg
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/www/hacking.html
is a neat reference.
Furthermore, it ain't that much of a "patch" (I assume you're not doing
a 'diff' against the current source tree) as much as it is a new
codebase. We just don't have slang for that ;)

Don't worry too much about stuff like that at the moment. It doesn't
need to be perfect. Just send what you have. We're pretty good at
reading source code. We'll no doubt provide you with lots of feedback.

nope. We've got ant :-)

I don't particularly care :-)

good! Just chuck whatever you have at the moment into jira.
cheers!
