              <p>It has been a quiet month. Commons has killed on old component and welcomed a new one, while other components have kept up fixes, features and releases. Elsewhere there has been more discussion about the infrastructure and community at Apache, and an attempt to be helpful to those developers using IDEs</p>
  
              <p>As always, I want to thank those who contributed and hope that you enjoy the read.  If you would like to comment further on any of the highlighted discussions then please do so on the <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html">appropriate list</a>, if you want to comment on the newsletter itself then please point your comments to <a href="mailto:general@jakarta.apache.org?subject=[Newsletter]">general@jakarta.apache.org</a>.</p>

              <p><i>&quot;Ideas, suggestions, and comments on the overall Jakarta project&quot;</i></p>
              <p><b>Editor:</b> Rob Oxspring</p>
  
  
  <p>&quot;if continuous integration is a good thing on a small project, why not apply it recursively and include all dependencies for which access to source is provided&quot; This has been the reasoning behind Gump [<a href="#General1">1</a>] and since so many Jakarta folk agreed [<a href="#General2">2</a>] it was decided to promote Gump from within Alexandria to be a first class Jakarta subproject. The tool has been used to build all the latest versions of the Jakarta code for a long time now, and does a great job of keeping the developers on their toes and helps maintain a high level of interoperability between sub projects.</p>
  
  <p>For those that like Wikis, the turbine team talked us into starting up our very own.  As usual there was plenty of discussion about the pros and cons, and plenty about the implementation [<a href="#General3">3</a>,<a href="#General4">4</a>] but Andy Oliver decided to get the ball rolling with a simple system with minimal administration needs [<a href="#General5">5</a>].</p>
  
  <p>Should Apache move into the world of C#? Does the JCP do Java any favours? These are the general themes of this months big thread and since both topics repeatedly come up at Jakarta, it will come as no surprise to learn that opinions are mixed and conclusions are some time off. Still, its always fun guessing which way to jump! [<a href="#General6">6</a>,<a href="#General7">7</a>]</p>

              <p>Doug Cutting added Snowball Stemmers[<a href="#Lucene1">1</a>] to Lucene Sandbox Repository[<a href="#Lucene2">2</a>]. Snowball[<a href="#Lucene3">3</a>] is a small string processing language designed for creating stemming algorithms for use in Information Retrieval.  Snowball Stemmers for Lucene project provides pre-compiled version of the Snowball stemmers together with classes integrating them with the Lucene search engine. </p>
  
              <p>Previously Lucene supported only English, German, and Russian. Lucene users can now make use of the code provided by this new project and gain support for the following languages: </p>

Elsewhere there has been more discussion about the infrastructure and community at Apache, and an attempt to be helpful to those developers using IDEs</p>

                                                  <p>"if continuous integration is a good thing on a small project, why not apply it recursively and include all dependencies for which access to source is provided" This has been the reasoning behind Gump [<a href="#General1">1</a>] and since so many Jakarta folk agreed [<a href="#General2">2</a>] it was decided to promote Gump from within Alexandria to be a first class Jakarta subproject. The tool has been used to build all the latest versions of the Jakarta code for a long time now, and does a great job of keeping the developers on their toes and helps maintain a high level of interoperability between sub projects.</p>
                                                  <p>For those that like Wikis, the turbine team talked us into starting up our very own.  As usual there was plenty of discussion about the pros and cons, and plenty about the implementation [<a href="#General3">3</a>,<a href="#General4">4</a>] but Andy Oliver decided to get the ball rolling with a simple system with minimal administration needs [<a href="#General5">5</a>].</p>
                                                  <p>Should Apache move into the world of C#? Does the JCP do Java any favours? These are the general themes of this months big thread and since both topics repeatedly come up at Jakarta, it will come as no surprise to learn that opinions are mixed and conclusions are some time off. Still, its always fun guessing which way to jump! [<a href="#General6">6</a>,<a href="#General7">7</a>]</p>
