[RESULT] Future of the Jakarta Taglibs Project

[Felipe Leme <ja...@felipeal.net>]

Hi again,

Here are the results for my [VOTE] proposal:


Proposal 1: merge Jakarta Taglibs Project into this new project

5 +1 (Felipe Leme, Henri Yandell, Justyna Horwart, Martin Cooper, Abey 
Mullassery)
1 +0 (Rahul Akolkar)

Notes: Hen said that we should move taglibs individually over to the new 
project rather than the whole lot; Justina and Sam agreed

Conclusion: approved


Proposal 2: Jakarta Standard Taglibs should be a project of its ow

6 +1 (Felipe Leme, Henri Yandell, Justyna Horwart, Martin Cooper, Abey 
Mullassery, Rahul Akolkar)

Conclusion: approved

Proposal 3: leave the other (than Standard) taglibs behind (i.e., leave 
the code on CVS/SVN and create new taglibs from scratch)

6 +1 (Felipe Leme, Henri Yandell, Justyna Horwart, Martin Cooper, Abey 
Mullassery, Rahul Akolkar)

Conclusion: approved

Proposal 4: Release a final version for each existing taglib left behind

2 +1 (Felipe Leme, Justyna Horwart, Abey Mullassery)
1 -0 (Henri Yandell)
2 -1 (Rahul Akolkar, Martin Cooper)

Conclusion: inconclusive :-(

So, I'm sending a message to the PMC stating that we decided that:

1.The Jakarta Taglibs Project would like to be merged into the new 
Jakarta Web Commons (or whatever its named) project
2.The Jakarta Standard Taglib should be a project of its own
3.The remaining taglibs would be gradually migrated to the new project, 
the most actives first
4.It's not decided yet if the migrated taglibs would have a newer 
release prior to the migration

Finally, there is one thing that worries me at this moment: looks like 
the new project is dormant, at least I haven't seen any message in the 
General@Jakarta for a while. Hopefully this message will wake it up...

Regards,

Felipe

PS: sorry for the delay on sending the results, but I've been offline in 
the last weeks as I just moved to a new house
