Jakarta subproject-package system
Hello everyone,
I am currently discussing the Jakarta project charter and have a few
questions about the structure of the whole jakarta-subproject-package
system. I am a bit confused about the terminology used in the charter. :
<quote>
"Apache-Java and Jakarta originally hosted product-based subprojects,
consisting of one major deliverable. The Java language however is
package-based, and most of these products have many usefull utilities.
Some products are beginning to break these out so that they can be used
independently. A Jakarta subproject to solely create and maintain
independent packages is proposed to accelerate and guide this process"
</quote>
My questions about this :
1) The jakarta project has subprojects and each subproject consists of
different java-packages. Originally these packages hava one major
deliverable but due to the package-based system they have now many
usefull utilities. Is that correct ?
2) "Some products are beginning to break... ": Do they mean a
'subproject' is breaking out or a 'package' is breaking out ?
3) I don't understand the last sentence, is there a sepparate subproject
with a controlling function over the different packages from other
subprojects? If so, is that subproject the 'Apache Incubator' project ?
Thanks in advance,
----

not wrong probably just a little confusing
the jakarta commons charter encapsulates the opinions of the jakarta pmc
at that particular moment in time.

Hello Henri,
I was looking to these page :
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/charter.html

Hi Jan,
Which page are you looking at?
The current charter is at: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/management.html
and doesn't contain the text you're quoting.
