Proposing Gump integrated into other solutions...

["Adam R. B. Jack" <aj...@trysybase.com>]

... such as SourceCast from CollabNet, or SF.net or ... ?

What would be ASF's stance/policy on such things? Sybase (my employer) uses
SourceCast (as does Java.net) and I believe it lacks a solution (like Gump)
in it's services. I'd like to pitch Gump to these folks, but I don't know
what sort of licensing issues that might raise.

Any guidance appreciated.

regards,

Adam

You may also want to look for CollabNet on
<http://www.apache.org/foundation/members.html>.  I don't think it
reflects current reality in all cases, but should give you an idea of
how much CollabNet is aware of Apache technology.

<groan> (only slightly). I guess I ought look at e-mail addresses postfixes
when responding.

Try the new (improved :-) Python version, please & then go talk nicely to
some product manager. Your stuff needs Gump, and Gump is ready (IMNSHO ;-).

Then, once done, can the Sybase branding of SourceCast
[http://www.codexchange.sybase.com/] get it pretty please. :-) :-)

Well, speaking with my CollabNet hat on, I can honestly say that we 
know of Gump.  :)

I set up a local installation a little over a year ago for internal 
code.  Hopefully one day, it will find its way into SourceCast.

I'm clueless on all this, but I vaguely recall that some folks have paid
Apache for use of their stuff, and I wondered if me (random nobody @ apache)
proposing the ideas to folks might cause fundraising@ some grief. Like I
said, this is over my head, I just think there are folks out there who need
this beastie, and I want to let them know it. :-)

I'm not sure I totally understand what you are asking.  The Apache 
License allows for integration into commercial products so Gump could 
be integrated into SourceCast (or anything else).
