[Fwd: [vote] XMLBeans to enter XML incubation [was: Re: Vote for
XMLBeans proposal in the XML Project (was RE: Vote for XMLBeans proposal)]]
Incubator Team,
The xml.apache.org project has voted (18 +1 votes and 1 0 vote, no -1
votes) to sponsor XMLBeans through the incubation process and thence
into the XML project.
Ted Leung has volunteered to shepherd XMLBeans through this process on
behalf of the xml.apache project (assuming the incubation team is
willing to take this on).
Steven put some thoughts together at the base of this e-mail around
potential next steps. We're more than happy to be guided by your good
selves on how to make this happen, and I'm more than happy to help out
on anything necessary on the logistics side.
One question - there were a number of thoughts and caveats raised before
and during the vote. Should we (can we?) put something together to
document exit criteria from the incubation process?
Cheers,
Berin

Dear committers,
as outlined in the xml.apache.org charter (section 6.2), and in
collaboration with the Incubator
(http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/incubator/STATUS?rev=HEAD)
Subject to:
- relicensing of the XMLBeans codebase using the ASL 1.1 license
(http://xml.apache.org/LICENSE)
- copyright transfer from BEA to the ASF as described in
http://incubator.apache.org/process.html [1]
- each initial XMLBeans committer sending in a Contributor's License
Agreement
(http://incubator.apache.org/forms/ASF_Contributor_License_2_form.pdf)
- furthermore, I would strongly suggest the XMLBeans code should only
be moved into Apache CVS once the outstanding LGPL & BEA-licensed code
dependency issues have been resolved.
Please cast your vote on the acceptance of the XMLBeans project for
incubation in the XML.Apache project:
----------- vote ballot ----------
Name: ________________
[ ] I agree with and support this proposal (+1)
[ ] Indifference (-1 < x < +1)
[ ] I object and suggest a way to address my reservations (-1)
----------------------------------
----------- 8< ----------- 8< ----------- 8< -----------
If the outcome of this vote is positive and CLA forms are collected,
work can start on creating the necessary infrastructure resources. I'm
on holiday from the 12th until the 26th of July and won't be able to
help out coordination-wise, but here's a quick list of the top of my head:
- collection and creation of initial committer accounts, using the
following template:
----------------------------------
To: root@apache.org
Cc: pmc@xml.apache.org, pmc@incubator.apache.org,
newcommitters@email.address
Subject: Apache account requests for XMLBeans project incubation
<repeat times="number of committers">
Full name: ...
Preferred userid: ...
Forwarding email address: ...
Unix group: xml
</repeat>
----------------------------------
- creation of xml-xmlbeans CVS module
- also configure in ViewCVS
- commit mails -> xml-xmlbeans-cvs@apache.org
- add initial committers to the avail list
- mailing lists:
- xmlbeans-dev@xml.apache.org
- xmlbeans-user@xml.apache.org
- xmlbeans-cvs@xml.apache.org
- .qmail-xml-xmlbeans-cvs forward to xmlbeans-cvs@xml.apache.org
- list archiving:
- mbox -> xml.apache.org/mail
- Eyebrowse setup
- Bugzilla project creation and set up of notification mails
- grant some committers access to xml-site module for website content
- setup automated checkout of xml-site/targets/xml-beans on daedalus
for website (or give someone access to daedalus for manual website
publication)
- send a big thank you to infrastructure@
That's about all I can think of ATM.
</Steven>

Well, not without adding him to the 'incubator' unix group. Which
I've done now ;).

And another +1 here...
I've updated CVSROOT/avail already. You should have commit access now to the
'incubator' and 'incubator-site' CVS modules.

Ted,
Let me know if you want any assistance in collating some of the thoughts
that were raised on the recent discussions.
Maybe we could post the STATUS file to general@xml once there is a first
cut?
Cheers,
Berin

May I have commit access to the CVS to maintain this?

You should definitely document what you think is important to
exit the incubation process. I suggest committing something
to the incubator CVS (see the other projects' STATUS files
for a template).
