Brian,
One thing we may be able to
start with sooner is a discussion on interpreting the CVS statistics,
as of all the measures of a project, we felt the best about the changes
to the codebase, in the sense that substantial improvements and
enhancements were made over the last 6 months. Our sense is that real
progress was made on the codebase, especially in the areas of
security/SSO and the Event Manager, although we also did trivial
across-the-board updates to update the copyright notice. We suspect
the observations in your first note may have reflected spot checks to
portions of the code that received no effort except for the trivial IP
protection updates.
That is correct - I just did a spot check - sorry if I spot checked the
wrong files :-(
In general, however, the PMC is more concerned about the lack of
community: no developers talking on the dev mailing list, no users
talking on the mailing list, the website not being update (for example,
the most recent date on "ALF in the News" in August 2006), etc.
