well no need to take a break David, I understood you the first time
around. I think it is not a bad idea if we started to design our code repository now. If we have a look at cpan, and for example the way eclipse and netbeans load plugins, we might go a long way. A component model might not hurt, complete with self-describing features and metadata (properties, events). The other side of that is, will that still be Rexx or something else. Marrying the two would be a bonus in my book, so a Rexx way of software components/plugins without the overhead. I still cannot quite grasp that SOM went overboard so quickly. I always saw NetRexx as a different language. A more rational and pleasant way to use the JVM, and with an heritage of Rexx with some of the original choices a bit better, like loop instead of do and case insensitive comparisons. I totally agree that the runtime is more or less complete and that we should go the way of the code/component exchange for most of the extensions. No reason not to start now. btw - where are the members on your kenai site - I saw two members, you and me. Come on people, it is at http://projectkenai.com/projects/netrexx-misc/pages/Home - register yourself and follow the project. best regards, René Jansen.

There has been some uncertainty about the future of kenai right after David opened his page. I understand that kenai won't be closed as we has been told first, but I still do not know, how Oracle will continue this effort and if the current project pages will stay for a longer time, or if David will be forced to move to something else in the near future. Another story is having different sites around for (nearly) the same project. netrexx.org is a great address, kenai provides a usable(?) project infrastructure, RexxLA will be the official home of an opensourced NetRexx. It's not an easy task to catch all the birds, once you let them fly away. But for shure I like Davids NetRexx page and will register. regards kp _______________________________________________ Ibm-netrexx mailing list [hidden email] |

Peter,
When you are loged-in to kenai.com and visiting the project page, you'll find a "Bookmark This Project" at the bottom of the left (blue) panel. Clicking this will add the project to your "My Page" area as well as joining you to the project as an "Observer". --- Saludos / Kind regards. David Requena El 03/03/2010 23:21, Peter Sharp escribió:

Hello David & al,
I just opened (or tried to open) a new project 'reyc' on KENAI, after becoming a member of your NetRexxDE Project. Now, a question: Would I need SOURCEFORGE at all, or can I use KENAI directly to store the OPEN SOURCE version of this project.

Thomas,
You can use KENAI instead of Source Forge as it provides the same services, if in a much more accessible way. Mind you other options exist as well. Your choice of license is a very good one in my view. I'd use the same for NetRexxDE if allowed by its original GPL license.

Well, actually you can, but only if you are the copyright holder (or
you have the agreement of everybody who contributed to the project). It's also possible to license code under multiple licenses. I see both of these scenarios a lot in the open source world.

Fernando, I somehow fail to see how your first statement differs from what I said. OTH, the BSD style licenses assure that what I release will be always free as much as the GPL. What it does not´t do is going to great lengths in order to assure that any possible modification, or any product in which may work is incorporated will also be free (in FSF's definition of the term). When I release some OSS I own, I make the choice to allow 'non-free' use of if as long as my copyright over parts of the resulting product is clearly stated. This is of course not the case with NetRexxDE. In the case of NetRexx supporting tools and libraries this is clearly more likely to help the language spread and achieve mainstream acceptance. --- Saludos / Kind regards.
