Status of ws-xmlrpc
Hi,
I am sorry to write this, but it seems about time.
Within the last year, the ws-xmlrpc project has definitely been the
least active of all ws projects. Actually, there has been almost no
activity, the exception being some truly minor patches.
However, this applies to the committers only: In fact, there have been
several and nontrivial patches from the user community. Indeed,
ws-xmlrpc seems to be in serious use and interest from the community is
high.
Within the last weeks, there have been some threads discussing the
topic. See, for example,
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=110572451100001&r=1&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=111209377300002&r=1&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=111174293000001&r=1&w=2
and, in particular, as a summary
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=111217433600003&r=1&w=2
Three Apache committers (Siegfried Goeschl, Henri Gomez, and myself)
have offered to take over maintenance and/or further development of the
project. The only replies by current ws-xmlrpc committers have been
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xmlrpc-dev&m=110746584315959&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xmlrpc-dev&m=111222153313692&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xmlrpc-dev&m=111221953406888&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xmlrpc-dev&m=111218050423494&w=2
None of this looks like the situations is going to change. In
particular, there seems to be absolutely no interest to gain additional
committers.
Whats your opinion?
Jochen

Problems with CVS setup as new committer ...
Posted by Siegfried Goeschl <si...@it20one.at>.
Hi folks,
I try to checkout the CVS HEAD revision to commit my changes but I fail
miserably with
=== START =============================
cvs checkout: Updating ws-xmlrpc
cvs checkout: failed to create lock directory for `/home/cvs/ws-xmlrpc'
(/home/cvs/ws-xmlrpc/#cvs.lock): Permission denied
cvs checkout: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/home/cvs/ws-xmlrpc'
cvs [checkout aborted]: read lock failed - giving up
cvs checkout: in directory .:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
=== END =============================
I'm not a Unix guru but I think the problem is my missing membership of
the "ws" group?! Therefore I have no write permission for the CVS directory.
Thanks in advance
Siegfried Goeschl

[VOTE] New committers for xml-rpc (Re: Status of ws-xmlrpc)
Posted by Davanum Srinivas <da...@gmail.com>.
Let's do something unorthodox...Existing committers of xml-rpc, please
VOTE to add Siegfried Goeschl, Henri Gomez, and Jochen Wiedmann as
committers.
If we don't have 3 +1's from the committers (or get -1's), we can have
a VOTE at the pmc@ws to resolve the situation.
Here's my non-binding vote +1.
Thanks,
dims
