Possible Starteam Antlib [WAS RE: Unit tests results with current
head]
Stefan and others,
what would be the process to move the starteam code to become an antlib ?
would we first move the starteam code to the antlibs sandbox, then through a graduation process to the antlibs proper ?
Regards,
Antoine

Add them to the sandbox, try to find three committers[1], call for a
vote to promote it, release it like any other piece of ASF software

I'd say you can skip the sandbox if you find three committers right
away.

[1] this step failed when Kev tried to do the same for the VSS antlib

I'd think that there would need to be a changeover period where
starteam was available in ant and as a separate antlib (say for
1.7.1), but also note in the docs for ant and in the starteam ant task
that the task is now deprecated. Then in 1.7.2 remove the task from
ant and just leave the antlib

Deprecate them for one release before removing them.

Hello Kevin and others,
I have read manifestations of interest from two persons who contributed
to these tasks so far.
So finding 3 people might work for Starteam.
What I am wondering about is : would we remove the Starteam tasks from
Ant 1.7.1 for instance ?
or have them both in Ant 1.7.1 and in the antlib ?
Regards,
Antoine

Hi Antoine (et al)..

I think just adding the antlib xml, and changing the package name of
the starteam code is strictly all that's necessary. The hard part is
getting enough support to push it through the sandbox into antlibs
proper (see my previous attempt with the vss antlib)
