Add draft ByLaws page.
----

The ByLaws page is based on the one we use for Struts, which was in turn based on the one from Jakarta, which was originally based on the HTTPD Core Group docs :)

Of course, this is just a draft, and we can make whatever changes we like. 

Next, I'll setup a STATUS file, update our checklist page with the Incubator, and get us started with a Wiki site.  [Warning: The wiki site mails to the list too, so people can't post things without our knowledge :)]

It's a chicken and egg scenario. If we want to preserve the history for ibatisdb, we need the CVS tarball to create the repository. When we are ready to do this, we can park the tarball in one of our user directories and create a JIRA ticket for infrastructure. 

(If anyone wants to join infrastructure, they are always looking for volunteers with sysop skills. As soon as I get a couple of things off my plate, I'll be volunteering myself.)

When the ibatisdb CVS is migrated, we can merge ibatisnet. Since ibatisnet is already under SVN, it's an easier task.


>�Thanks Ted. �How do we all gain access to update the site?

The actual updates can be done using scp, just like we do for SourceForge. The site is located at cvs.apache.org under /www/incubator.apache.org/ibatis/site

So, if you were using PuTTY, from a command line, you'd enter 

  >pscp -r *.* ${user}@cvs.apache.org://www/incubator.apachel.org/ibatis/site

from the root of the built site.

There's also a way to just check it into the repository and have the transfer take place automatically, but we need our repository setup for that.

The site itself is under Forrest 0.6 <forrest.apache.org>. Forrest is a Cocoon application. You can edit the XML files and run "forrest" from the command prompt, and it builds the site. 

Since our Apache SVN is not setup, I've been posting it to our repository at wush.net. It's very easy to setup accounts there, if anyone wants one. Might also be a good opportunity to take the SVN tools for a spin.

Do we care much about the CVS history for JPetstore? Or can we just import JPetstore4 into SVN and go from there? 

As to structure, I'd go ahead and call the JPetstore, the JPetstore, and put it on equal footing with core, dao, and the docs: 

java

�./core
� ../trunk
� ../branches
� ../tags

�./dao
� ../trunk

�./jpetstore     <--- ***
� ../trunk

�./site (documentation)
� ../trunk

/cs
 {ditto, except npetshop}

Or maybe 

/java
/cs
/site 

if we want a single website deployment, as we have now. 

In Struts, we're going to try giving each subproject it's own release cycle, and then combining them into Linux-style distributions. 

So, Struts 1.3.0 might aggregate 
 - core 1.0.6
 - tags 1.0.1
 - extras 1.0.0
 - site 1.0.3

Then, if there is a new tags release, but everything else remains the same, Struts 1.3.1 might aggregate 
 - core 1.0.6
 - tags 1.0.2       <-- only change
 - extras 1.0.0
 - site 1.0.3

Essentially, iBATIS is already doing something like this. The Java documentation package distributed in June has "carried over" to the subsequent releases. Likewise, iBATIS.NET has separate releases of the core, npetstop, tutorial, and documentation. All that's left to do is zip the four GAs into a single iBATIS.NET 1.0.0 download.

Thanks Ted.  How do we all gain access to update the site?

As for JPetStore, yes, I think we should make it an official iBATIS
product (defacto example).  We'll standardize it more (Brandon has a
good start already) and put it in a separate folder under
ibatis/java/examples or something like that.

Is the SVN repository set up?  I checked a week ago, and it seemed
that the ibatis folder hadn't been created yet.

Cheers! 

Clinton

I've added links to the legacy forums and issue tracker to the new iBATIS website. 

http://incubator.apache.org/ibatis/site/index.html

It still needs work, but it's probably good enough for now, so I've updated the ibatisnet.sf.net page to redirect to the incubator site. 

I also updated the descriptions of the ibatisnet.sf.net forums to say "CLOSED: Goto http://incubator.apache.org/ibatis/site/mailinglists.html ".

Next, I'll review what else we will need to do to graduate from the incubator.

Then as soon as we are ready to convert the ibatisdb CVS, we can import the ibatisnet SVN repository and be ready to rock. :)

Hmmm, what is the status of the JPetstore CVS? Are we going to want to bring that over too?
