<section name="Charter"> | |||||
<p>Below is the text of the proposal that has been accepted by | |||||
the Ant PMC. Further amendments are expected.</p> | |||||
<source> | |||||
Proposal to Create a Ant-Libraries Sub-Project in Apache Ant | |||||
============================================================ | |||||
(0) rationale | |||||
Ant itself has accumulated lots and lots of tasks over time. So many, | |||||
that Ant developers have become reluctant to adding new | |||||
task. Furthermore any new task in Ant would be tied to Ant's release | |||||
schedule which is too slow for a thriving, fresh piece of code. | |||||
The proposal allows Ant tasks and types to be developed under the Ant | |||||
umbrella by Ant developers but have much shorter release cycles than | |||||
Ant itself. In addition it would new committers who would have commit | |||||
access to a single Ant library instead of the whole of Ant. | |||||
(1) scope of the subproject | |||||
The subproject shall create and maintain libraries of Ant tasks and | |||||
types. Each library will be managed in the same manner as the Ant | |||||
project itself, the PMC is ultimately responsible for it. | |||||
Common Java libraries that only happen to provide Ant tasks as well | |||||
are out of scope of the subproject. Providing the tasks or types has | |||||
to be the primary goal of the library. | |||||
To further this goal, the subproject shall also host a workplace for | |||||
Ant committers. | |||||
(1.5) interaction with other subprojects | |||||
(1.5.1) the sandbox | |||||
The subproject will host a SVN repository available to all Ant | |||||
committers as a workplace for new Ant libraries. | |||||
Before a library can have a public release it has to get promoted to | |||||
the "proper" Ant libraries subproject. This also means it has to match | |||||
the requirements of an Ant library as defined in section (4) under | |||||
Guidelines below. | |||||
The status of any library developed in the sandbox shall be reviewed | |||||
after six months and the library gets either promoted or removed - or | |||||
it has to be re-evaluated after another six months. | |||||
(2) identify the initial source from which the subproject is to be populated | |||||
Some Ant committers have developed tasks or libraries inside of the | |||||
Ant CVS module under the proposal/sandbox directory. Committers are | |||||
free to move them over to the new sandbox subproject or remove them | |||||
completely. | |||||
Libraries expected to move to the sandbox subproject initially are | |||||
* the .NET tasks under proposal/sandbox/dotnet | |||||
* the Subversion support tasks under proposal/sandbox/svn | |||||
(3) identify the initial Apache resources to be created | |||||
(3.1) mailing list(s) | |||||
None. At least at the beginning we don't expect too much traffic and | |||||
the existing mailing lists of the Ant projects will be used. | |||||
(3.2) SVN repositories | |||||
Create <http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/> | |||||
Expected are sub-directories | |||||
antlibs/ | |||||
| | |||||
-----> proper/ | |||||
| | | |||||
| -----> library1 | |||||
| | | | |||||
| | -----------> trunk | |||||
| | -----------> tags | |||||
| | -----------> branches | |||||
| -----> library2 | |||||
| | | |||||
| -----------> trunk | |||||
| -----------> tags | |||||
| -----------> branches | |||||
| | |||||
-----> sandbox/ | |||||
| | |||||
-----> library1 | |||||
| | | |||||
| -----------> trunk | |||||
| -----------> tags | |||||
| -----------> branches | |||||
-----> library2 | |||||
| | |||||
-----------> trunk | |||||
-----------> tags | |||||
-----------> branches | |||||
And potentially collections of all-trunks using svn:external as shown | |||||
by the current Jakarta Commons structure. | |||||
(3.3) Bugzilla | |||||
New components under product "Ant" for each new library. | |||||
(4) identify the initial set of committers | |||||
All current Ant PMC members plus the active Ant committers who are not | |||||
PMC members yet. | |||||
Guidelines | |||||
---------- | |||||
Note: | |||||
* is, has, will, shall, must - required. | |||||
* may, should, are encouraged - optional but recommended. | |||||
(1) The primary unit of reuse and release is the Ant library. | |||||
(2) The library is not a framework or a general library but a | |||||
collection of Ant tasks and types. | |||||
(3) Each library must have a clearly defined purpose, scope, and API. | |||||
(4) Each library is treated as a product in its own right. | |||||
(4.1) Each library has its own status file, release schedule, version | |||||
number, QA tests, documentation, bug category, and individual | |||||
JAR. | |||||
(4.2) Each library must clearly specify any external dependencies, | |||||
including any other libraries, and the earliest JDK version | |||||
required. | |||||
(4.3) Each library must maintain a list of its active committers in | |||||
its status file. | |||||
(4.4) The libraries should use a standard scheme for versioning, QA | |||||
tests, and directory layouts, and a common format for | |||||
documentation and Ant build files. | |||||
(4.4) Each library will be hosted on its own page on the subproject | |||||
Web site, and will also be indexed in a master directory. | |||||
(4.5) Volunteers become committers to this subproject in the same way | |||||
they are entered to any Apache subproject. | |||||
Once the required infrastructure is in place, volunteers may | |||||
become committers for a single Ant library only. | |||||
(4.6) New libraries may be proposed to the Ant dev mailing list. To be | |||||
accepted, a library proposal must receive majority approval of | |||||
the Ant PMC. Proposals are to identify the rationale for the | |||||
library, its scope, the initial source from which the library is | |||||
to be created, and the initial set of committers. | |||||
(4.7) As stated in the Ant guidelines, an action requiring majority | |||||
approval must receive at least 3 binding +1 votes and more +1 | |||||
votes than -1 votes. | |||||
(4.8) Each Ant library needs at least three committers, at least one | |||||
of them has to be an Ant PMC member. | |||||

<h3>Ant Libraries - or Antlibs for short</h3> | |||||
<p>With Ant 1.6.0 and the ant libraries concept creating | |||||

nascent Ant tasks since Ant's own release schedule has become | |||||
