Apache Incubator: Extraordinary Made Ordinary, the Subversion case

,----[ Quote ]
| Few days ago Subversion has been submitted 
| to the Apache Incubator, a move praised by 
| many as the natural fit for both projects, 
| both for technical reasons (Apache projects 
| use Subversion, Subversion relies on many 
| Apache projects) and a shared vision about 
| IP (same license) and community governance 
| (same voting process).

Mozilla Jetpack Design Challenge Extended

,----[ Quote ]
| Jetpacks are basically add-ons for Mozilla 
| Firefox that are written in HTML, 
| JavaScript, and CSS. They're meant to be 
| easier to write and deploy for Web designers 
| than standard Firefox extensions that can 
| involve needing to know Mozilla's XUL, too. 
| While Mozilla has tons of people writing 
| add-ons for Firefox, the group of people who 
| know standard Web development is far larger 
| than the group that know (or want to learn) 
| XUL.

Apache: 'No jerks allowed'

,----[ Quote ]
| It seems like reasonable advice, but it's
| discouraging to see this basic rule of polite
| society regularly broken within the wider open-
| source community. Some feel that a license to
| code is a license to shout others down. It's
| not. At least, not at Apache.

,----[ Quote ]
| It's been 10 years since the Apache Software
| Foundation hung out its feather, creating
| what has become a series of communities
| filled with focused project entrepreneurs
| working on a laundry list of innovative
| efforts, one of which landed in the White
| House just a few weeks ago.

Live from ApacheCon: Subversion Joins ASF

,----[ Quote ]
| The Apache Software Foundation is
| celebrating 10 years since its
| incorporation, and so we're partying like
| it's 1999 here at ApacheCon. By which I mean
| ApacheCon has remained true to its roots
| with a community-driven feel that seemed
| more common in the Open Source events of 10
| years ago.
