General newbie question
Hello,
First of all, I am presenting myself : I am a three years experienced in java and j2ee french developper.
I have learned recently the existence of this new project and I would like to collaborate, so I began to read the J2EE specs.
And I have a little question or remark :
What are the specs implemented in this project, and why ?
For example, I have seen some mails about the implementation of the Javamail spec. Is it the right project for implementing this spec ? If we go further, in the javamail implementation does it include the JAF spec ?
From my point of view, I will see the implementation of these specs (Javamail, JAF) in another Apache project (maybe subproject) like Xalan is for jaxp.
And I think is to the geronimo project to decide which implementation to use.
To be clear : one spec = one project.
It will be more flexible.
Laurent Forêt.

Hi guys,
I already did some work on the really basic stuff of JAF.. but just
can't seem to find the time to take it any further. I'll post a patch
later this evening.

Great stuff. Good luck with it, and if you've got any questions feel
free to bounce them off me (or the list, for that matter :-)

I am gonna read all the specs, and I will have one week holiday in september to begin the impl.
So, let's go.

Should not be a problem if the spec & impl code is well isolated into a module.
But, is there anybody working on JAF? I purpose myself for working on ! I don't really know about this spec but it seems to be at my level. Or If you are interested in translation stuff, I can also do it.

I think that the JAF interfaces were imported by Maas van den Berg to provide placeholders. However, I do not know if he was in the process of implementing them.

Presently, I'm working on the JavaMail stuff which will require the JAF stuff to be operational, so I had intended to see what was necessary to get JavaMail up and working. But if you are volunteering to spend time developing the JAF, that would be great :-)

I think that the JAF interfaces were imported by Maas van den Berg to
provide placeholders. However, I do not know if he was in the process
of implementing them.

Presently, I'm working on the JavaMail stuff which will require the JAF
stuff to be operational, so I had intended to see what was necessary to
get JavaMail up and working. But if you are volunteering to spend time

Should not be a problem if the spec & impl code is well isolated into a
module.

Ok, I understand. But I don't know if it will be easier after.
But, is there anybody working on JAF? I purpose myself for working on ! I don't really know about this spec but it seems to be at my level. Or If you are interested in translation stuff, I can also do it.

It is too much overhead to start up a new project for each spec right now. Perhaps later they will be moved, but for now it is easiest to keep them as part of Geronimo.
