RE: [VOTE] Use single version for all Java/SCA modules and enable building all modules together

Dims,
 
I don't think there is a stream of -1s. This is an issue on which, unfortunately, I disagree fundamnetally from a technical perspective, with the percieved majority view. It will be hypocritical of me to +1, if I don't agree with it. 
 
However, I am happy to go with the majority view, if that is what the community wants.
 
Ta
Meeraj

Jeremy,

I started another DISCUSS thread to "keep talking", you still need to
let everyone know what you think of this VOTE.

At the moment, this is a straight up/down binary vote on a fairly  
vague proposal, one that some people have specific technical concerns  
over. There are other proposals out there but we seem to have lost  
sight of that. IMO, yes, we should consider Bert's proposal, and mine  
for assemblies, and anything else anyone can think of that is less  
divisive.

Thanks. My suggestion is, keep talking. The important thing here is  
about seeing if we can work together to reach consensus. What the  
technical outcome is really doesn't matter.

Hi Jeremy,

Here is a problem that most of us are facing with the Trunk and is hindering
us to effectively contribute to the trunk.  I see there is one solution that
has been proposed to making this simpler with some compromises.  If this is
not agreeable what is the alternative for those of us who are waiting for a
solution to this.  Whats the simple way for any of us - including somebody
getting in afresh - to quickly jump in and start contributing without having
to worry about the build intricacies.  Should we consider Bert's suggestion?

Theres been may a time when you have helped us out of various technical
difficulties.  Here is yet another time I request for help from you for a
way out of this.

Thanks

RE: [VOTE] Use single version for all Java/SCA modules and enable building all modules together

Posted by Meeraj Kunnumpurath <M....@voca.com>.
Dims,
 
Sorry, I can't speak on behalf of Jim or Jeremy. 
 
As for me, this is only the second time I have voted -1, the other one being the one on interfaced based models, which has been withdrawn since then. On this particular vote, I am ok to go with -0, it was a misunderstaning on my part on how voting worked. I thought, the rule was there should be more +1s than -1s and at least three +1s.
 
As Jim mentioned in one of the previous emails, there is a fundamental difference that has been evolving between two groups of people, in terms of what technical direction we should take. There have been laudable efforts from both sides (especially from the likes of Raymond, Sebastien, Simon, Jim and Jeremy) to reconcile the differences and move on. However, the plain fact is that those diffeerences have not been resolved yet and I am not sure whether they would, given they are quite fundamental.
 
On your point on projects being thrown out of the incubator, I wouldn't want that to happen to Tuscany. Lot of people have put in a lot of effort on this. I am willing to keep the discussions going. At the end of the day, if I personally can't resolve the technical differences, I would maintain my dignity and step out of the way and let the community carry on. However, that would be a last resort for me, I would continue to work with the guys here and try to reconcile the differences.
 
On your point on the "Be Nice" vote, I have been thinking hard on the actual motivation of that vote. I don't think anyone has been disrespectful to anyone on the list so far. We have had our differences, and we have tried to discuss them as grown up individuals. Hence, I didn't really understand the purpose of that vote.

Meeraj,

well go over the archives and count how many times you, jim and jeremy
have -1'ed something. The correct vote for "I am happy to go with the
majority view, if that is what the community wants." is -0 *NOT* -1.
When you do a -1 you are supposed to work hard to come up with a
refined proposal that takes in your viewpoint or help come up with a
proposal that evertone can rally around. I see no effort in consensus
building in any of the threads i reviewed after a -1. This is an open
source project, you can have the best goddamn architecture in the
whole wide world. If there is no community to back the work. It will
get thrown out of the incubator. Sorry, that's the way Apache works.
Incubator is not only for legal purposes but also to help build
communities. This is not the way an open source project should work.
Forget about incubator projects, we have closed Top level project
(example Avalon) too because everyone was at cross purposes and no one
was cooperating with any one else. Yes, a few of the people who
started the fracas did say exactly what you said.."I disagree
fundamnetally from a technical perspective". See this email and check
if it is the same situation you all are in.

Finally did the three of you VOTE in the "Be Nice" thread? That just
tells me a lot of things.

thanks,
dims

Re: [VOTE] Use single version for all Java/SCA modules and enable building all modules together

Posted by Davanum Srinivas <da...@gmail.com>.
Meeraj,

well go over the archives and count how many times you, jim and jeremy
have -1'ed something. The correct vote for "I am happy to go with the
majority view, if that is what the community wants." is -0 *NOT* -1.
When you do a -1 you are supposed to work hard to come up with a
refined proposal that takes in your viewpoint or help come up with a
proposal that evertone can rally around. I see no effort in consensus
building in any of the threads i reviewed after a -1. This is an open
source project, you can have the best goddamn architecture in the
whole wide world. If there is no community to back the work. It will
get thrown out of the incubator. Sorry, that's the way Apache works.
Incubator is not only for legal purposes but also to help build
communities. This is not the way an open source project should work.
Forget about incubator projects, we have closed Top level project
(example Avalon) too because everyone was at cross purposes and no one
was cooperating with any one else. Yes, a few of the people who
started the fracas did say exactly what you said.."I disagree
fundamnetally from a technical perspective". See this email and check
if it is the same situation you all are in.

Finally did the three of you VOTE in the "Be Nice" thread? That just
tells me a lot of things.

thanks,
dims
