Ivy at the Apache incubator

Hi,

the Ivy project [1], a dependency manager for Java builds, is thinking about its future and wants to become a true Open Source project [2]. We have been in contact, particularly with Xavier Hanin, to discuss the possibility of Ivy moving to the ASF.

The Ivy project has prepared a proposal to join the ASF incubator [3].

The Ant PMC has just voted the following resolution :
------------------------
The Ant PMC sponsors Ivy moving to the Apache Incubator.
If the Ivy community wishes to move Ivy to become an Ant subproject after successful incubation, and if the ASF board agrees to it, Ant will welcome Ivy as a subproject after the incubation period.
------------------------

The proposal still needs people willing to take the champion and mentor roles at the incubator in behalf of Ivy. See [4] for a full explanation.

The champion can be any member of the Ant PMC or a member of the ASF.
The mentor has to be a member of the ASF.

Regards,

Antoine

I had no news from him recently, but I think he's very busy for the moment.
I'll send him a personal e-mail to know if he's interested.

What about Sylvain Wallez?  I thought his intent was
to be a mentor as well.

Not for the moment. I will try to find one, but I don't know many people
from the ASF...

Thanks a lot for your interest.

I don't know the Apache process very well, but it seems that Stephane is
right saying that there is no limit in the number of mentors. And the more
there are, the less time it will take to each. So, do you agree to be all
three of you in the list of mentors?

If you are ok I think I'll update the proposal and send it on the incubator
mailing list on Monday.

Yes, hmmm, I know of someone that "just" contributes to the mailing lists ;-)

Having implemented in the past something akin to Ivy (albeit much less
polished), I might contribute ideas and opinion, but I don't foresee
having enough bandwidth for more. --DD

Contributor would be anybody who contributes to the project in any
way.  I guess you read committer instead of contributor.  Committers
are voted in based on their contributions - not necessarily code
contributions, it could be contributions to documentation or "just"
discussions on the mailing lists.

So come and join the fun then. :)

I think I will have to devote quite more than a few cycles anyway as I 
will probably be more enclined to submit patches w/ the ASF 
infrastructure, and once Xavier has enough of it I will commit straight. 
:) I'm using Ivy heavily right now for our build system and even though 
I don't expect to really change the core of it, there are a few things I 
will probably clean up.

We are certainly thinking about using it at work, so I could justify 
involvement as a work-related-activity, related to jira defect 7, "Build

As far as I understand the general incubator mailing list is used to submit
the proposal and vote for it. If the proposal is accepted, "we" can setup
the infrastructure with ivy specific mailing lists (as requested in the
proposal). Then the general incubator mailing list won't be useful anymore
for Ivy until we cast a vote for graduation.

But this is only my understanding from what I've read, I'm still far from
being accustomed to Apache process.

Presumably I should sub to yet-another-apache-list too, then? Incubator? 
And will there then be a separate ivy one, or is everything done under 
the incubator list first?

I would like to get involved in it but will have little time for it
Not sure it would be respectful to consider myself as a mentor due to 
the above though but I guess the more we have the better. So if it 
should be qualified as a mentor, so be it but I'd like more people 
involved as mentor. And if someone has more spare cycles than I have I'd 
be glad to leave the seat.

I don't think there is any limit to the number of mentors and if any 
long time involved members like Stefan/Steve/Conor can also devote a few 
little spare cycles as a mentor that would be welcome too.

Volunteers ? :)

Hi,

Excellent news Antoine, thanks a lot for your support!

Posted by Antoine Levy-Lambert <an...@gmx.de>.

Antoine
