VOTE: the rules project

[Justin Mason <jm...@jmason.org>]

OK, now that the rc1 is out, I've been fiddling around with
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RulesProjectPlan to reflect what I
think is the current state of play.

Based on email from the last few weeks, I think we're all pretty happy
with the sandboxes idea as described on
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/RulesProjSandboxes .  It's also the
first step on the way to all the other listed ideas. Given that, I've come
up with a task list to get us there.   So can we get votes, both for the
plan, and for the tasks?  Here they are:

- PMC: vote to approve the sandboxes project

    [ ] Approve
    [ ] Disapprove

- reorganise the rules directory into core/ , sandbox/, and extra/; link
  that rules project SVN repository to 3.2.0's 'rules' dir; use SVN
  externals to do this.

    [ ] Approve
    [ ] Disapprove

- write scripts to test, filter, and pull rules from sandboxes
  automatically into core/ production ruleset

    [ ] Approve
    [ ] Disapprove

- move current ruleset into a new "legacy" sandbox

    [ ] Approve
    [ ] Disapprove

- start using the above scripts to generate core/ ruleset in svn

    [ ] Approve
    [ ] Disapprove


--j.

I'd like more details.

-1

I think the current ruleset should be placed into "core".

I'm not sure the tasks really need to be voted on, I mean, would it
make sense if we approved all but number 3? :-)

+5

i.e. +1 for each of the above.
