dbpatch antlib status

[Andrus Adamchik <an...@objectstyle.org>]

Some of you may remember the dbpatch antlib added to the Ant sandbox  
about a year ago:

   https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/sandbox/antlibs/dbpatch/

It is a nice little utility for keeping your DB schema sane across  
environments and across releases. I am still using it on some smaller  
projects. Still unfortunately I have to drop the ball on it, as my  
main projects have all migrated to Maven, and I don't have much itch  
to scratch here (and hence time to dedicate to it). As an aside  
there's a very similar Maven plugin, based on the same exact idea:

   http://code.google.com/p/c5-db-migration/

So it is unlikely that I will be doing further development of Ant  
dbpatch. It would be nice if the actual code could be preserved in the  
SVN, as (a) it works in its current form and is fully usable, in fact  
it can even be graduated from sandbox with minimal effort; (b) there  
are projects out there that are using dbpatch; (c) finally maybe some  
other people will be interested to continue this work.

Anyways, just wanted to give everybody heads up, and I let the Ant PMC  
to decide what to do with the codebase.

Thanks,
Andrus

Many thanks, this is much appreciated.

We'll keep you posted if we ever feel like moving DBPatch out of the
sandbox.

Cheers
