Moving the federation forward
Peoples,
As you are all aware, the Federation proposal has been voted in.
The new projects that were proposed were :
# Xerces, comprising Xerces Java, Xerces C++ and Xerces Perl
# Xalan, comprising Xalan Java and Xalan C++
# XML Graphics (comprising FOP and Batik)
# XML Security
# Xindice
# Axkit
I know the XML Graphics guys have been having discussions, as have
Xerces. How are things going? The first step in each case is probably
for the particular group to decide on a scope for the new project, vote
on the initial PMC and PMC chair and craft a resolution for the board to
vote on.
How about we aim for the next board meeting - 21/4 - to get a few of
these over and running as TLPs in their own right?
Cheers,
Berin

Peoples,
How are things tracking? I know Xalan, Xerces and XML Graphics were
doing things as has AxKit, but it'd be great to get a status on this list!
XML-Security - we started some discussion some time back, and it's
currently waiting on me writing up a draft resolution for the board's
next meeting. (Bad Berin - no cookie, to quote someone else on this
list :>.)
Cheers,
Berin

That's partly my fault - I haven't been giving things an impetus.
Having said that, where is everyone on this? Any movement?
I'd really like to get a couple of projects up to the board at the next
meeting!
Cheers,
Berin

Sorry for the delay. Busy times. Obviously, not much happens if nobody
pushes these things. I've just removed the part about the common
components from the proposal draft (XML Graphics). So I guess if nobody
has anthing else to say about the proposal we should go forward with
nominations for the PMC.
The rate at which this is going lets me wonder if this is a healthy
thing to do. I'm not talking about the XML Graphics in particular, but
the whole process here. I haven't felt much energy behind this task. I
wonder if it might help if the board gave just a little shove here.
