Okay, I think we are almost ready to get started. I have put together
Jackrabbit's incubator status page at
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/jackrabbit.html
and all of the initial committers have cvs commit access to incubator
and incubator-site. Note, however, that the folks with account names
in parentheses will have to submit a signed CLA to Apache before
their account will be created. Information on individual CLAs is at:
http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas
We already have a corporate CLA from Day Management AG that covers
all of Day's employees listed as committers, but we still need
individual ones because the ASF believes you own your own minds.
The best way to submit is print them, fill out the name and address,
sign, make copies, put the originals in an envelope addressed to
the Apache office:
The Apache Software Foundation
1901 Munsey Drive
Forest Hill, MD 21050-2747
U.S.A.
*and* fax the copies to: +1.410.803.2258
Information on how to make incubator site changes can be found at
http://incubator.apache.org/howtoparticipate.html
I have not created a real website for Jackrabbit yet, and we'll
have to figure out what we are going to do for a logo, etc.
If you are interested in general incubator discussion, like how
our status is reported to the rest of Apache, you can subscribe
to the general at incubator.apache.org mailing list.
The following mailing list is where all technical decisions about
what goes in (or out) of the Jackrabbit code get made:
jackrabbit-dev at incubator.apache.org
and automated change notices wll be sent to
jackrabbit-commits at incubator.apache.org
The only exception being that the JSR-170 expert group still
controls what goes under that javax.jcr namespace, though our
group does include most of the spec lead staff. ;-)
The code itself needs to be migrated from slide cvs to subversion.
When that happens (probably sometime today/tomorrow, assuming I get
the request to infrastructure tonight), it will be located at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/jackrabbit/trunk
If you are new to Apache, there are developer guidelines at
http://www.apache.org/dev/
some of which are out of date. Information on Subversion can be
found at
http://subversion.tigris.org/
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/apa.html (quick guide for cvs
users)
More later...
