Pom descriptions and branding
I was just looking through the poms for MINA.
It looks as though only the parent POM and mina-integration-xbean
have a description.
It would be helpful to have descriptions in the other modules too.
Also, the parent description is:
Apache MINA is a network application framework which helps users
develop high performance and highly scalable network applications
easily. It provides an abstract event-driven asynchronous API over
various transports such as TCP/IP and UDP/IP via Java NIO.
>From the branding point of view, Apache MINA should not be used as a
noun, only as a qualifier to a noun, so it cannot be the subject of a
sentence.
Maybe it could be reworded something like:
Apache MINA software implements a network ...
It's important that the first (or only) mention of MINA clearly uses
the word as a qualifier, not a noun.
I don't think this is blocking on the release, but it should be fixed
before the next one ideally.
