project ACE.

Project ACE is now finally retired (I had some severe problems with git
pull requests, but Infra saw my pain and helped me).

I have added
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-15994


Sorry for the delay, but I am actually in bed with a severe cold (that
comes from living in southern Spain).

have a nice day
rgds

   ... clutter in /dist/deltacloud :

     https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/deltacloud/

   I'll file a jira, asking to replace dist/deltacloud/* by a .htaccess

Could you possibly provide a clue to what is the problem with delta cloud,
just had a look on web site / comedy etc, and it seems ok ?

   An attic'ed project should have 1 file :

     dist/PROJ/.htaccess

   Thanks ; I'll take a look ; I was hoping for a json :

     [ { path : $path
       , date : ...
       , time : ...
       , ...
       }
     , ...
     ]

   ... if it can be automated.

No that is entirely your choise, I am merely suggesting it, as a way to
find consensus.

Please do not forget we did have emails going in the ACE project thread,
which seemed fine (at least for me), I renamed the thread based on your
suggestion.

I am not going to waste more energy on this theme, where all I seeked was
to get consensus between Henk and you.

The person seeking to make a change is the person who is responsible
for starting the thread.
I could start the thread, but I will frame it differently.

so in your mind all changes in ATTIC needs a vote, not a very open
suggestion.
(because everything we do affect somebody).

Well If you want that then start that thread....you cannot expect others to
do that just because you want it, consensus seeking is a two way street.

As I said earlier I have no strong opinions here, but I do expect all
participants of this list to try and avoid conflicts and instead seek
consensus....so again, you are the one with a different opinion, so please
help find consensus instead of telling what (others) need to do.

I regard the proposal as akin to a code change, as it affects the
behaviour of various systems
As such, it is subject to veto:

Who speak about vote ? I did not call a vote, voting is not demanded for
technical matters, only when electing new committers/PMC and changing chair
(even in these cases consensus is generally accepted).

Technical matters are decided by discussion and preferable consensus.

iin case you feel a vote is demanded, please pass a pointer to the relevant
bylaw.

ps. you jumped over the more relevant part, where I urge you and Henk to
achieve consensus.

Remove old projects (more than 4 year in ATTIC)

That is a very valid point, and nothing is stopping you from opening a
separate thread.


Let me try to sum up.


Henk prefers to remove the directories and the .htaccess files
Sebb is against removal (unless it is kept in another form)
I have no strong opinion, but have given my +1 in favour of Henk.

I would of course prefer a solution where we have consensus, and thus urge
Henk/Sebb to try and find that.

Any other opinions or comments ? If not majority “wins” and the ticket will
be reopened sometime next week.

have a nice weekend.

Re: project ACE.

Posted by sebb <se...@gmail.com>.
Just in case it is not obvious, I am -1 to the removal of the
.htaccess files under old retired TLPs UNLESS another way is found to
continue to redirect users.

Also, I feel a fundamental change such as this should be discussed in
a separate thread, rather than buried deep in an another thread about
project ACE.

If this is removed, I think it should be replaced with a redirect to
the archives.

   IF it is now (implicitly, by general consent) decided that attic'ed
     tlp's are removed from www.apache.org/dist/ after 4 years,
   THEN
     perhaps http://attic.apache.org/process.html
     should say :

       1. ...
       2. ...
       3. ...
       4. www.apache.org/dist/${project}/ may be removed after 4 years.

   Agree ; but ..., automating that stuff could/should be based
   on authorative, machine-readable info provided by attic.a.o/ ...
   PMC Attic is the only body that can say /when/ the move
   is/was actually started and when it was 'done'.
   I don't see how stuff can be automated reliably without
   such info.

   I just looked at the list again and it is enormous.
   A project should [IMHO] have a state {podling, tlp, attic}
   and graduation/attic-ing should be as easy as
   changing the state. Nevermind.

, like e.x:

- find maillists, wiki etc in order to tell infra what to close down

people wanting to know when a retirement happened can e.g. look at svn log
for the auth files.

   I don't see a 'date' field in the xdocs files ;
   I really would like to have a list like

     [ { dist_path : "beehive"
       , to_attic  : "2010-01-15"
       }
     , ...
     ]

   Because "moving stuff into the attic", is what PMC Attic does,
   it is fine to provide this info (authoratively) on attic.a.o/,
   rather than somewhere else.
   Other (automated) processes can fetch it from "attic.a.o/".

   It means (yet) another item in the "process" list ... ;
   is that a problem ? I will provide an initial file, of course.

   Ideas ?

   Thanks ; regards,

The official list of current PMCs is in committee-info.txt

This is easier to read when parsed by Whimsy at

https://whimsy.apache.org/public/committee-info.json

You may need to match on mail_list rather the key,

Hi Jan,

   Please take a look (if you can :-) at

     https://checker.apache.org/

   I've added some attic related info :

   1. Under "other projects" : a RedStar flags an attic'ed project.

      [ I think it looks a bit messy ; too much old stuff in /dist/ ;
        Shouldn't we remove /dist/atticked_project/ after
        some suitable interval ; 1, 2, 3 or 5 years ?
      ]

   2. under "attic'ed projects" : a RedStar flags a project
      with more than 1 file.

      -- 'ace' will become "unstarred" once INFRA-15994 is done
      -- 'deltacloud' is todo, right ?
      -- for project 'xml' I'll file a jira like :
         https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-15994

   Groeten,

   Henk Penning

   PS To get the "attic'ed" project list, I parse

     svn ls https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/attic/site/docs/projects

   stripping '.html', and ignoring entries with a '-' ;
   is there a better way ?

   HPP
