Thread: JDBC project / CVS moving to GBorg ...
Over the next two weeks, JDBC will be joining the other interfaces (ODBC,
C++, etC) that have been moved out of the core repository over to GBorg
...
Like the other interfaces into PostgreSQL, this will allow it to have its
own development/release cycle, allowing improvements to get out into the
public domain in a more timely manner ...
I will send out a note just before I actually move CVS over to the new
project site, and, like the other moves we've done, it will include the
full CVS files, so that none of the history stuff will be lost ...

What does everyone think about this?
If it has to move, there are other options besides gborg.
codehaus.org is one, they have all the tools installed already to build
the driver, and the exposure there may be beneficial.
The opportunity to goto a Maven build exists there too. This is one step
better than ant.
Please feel free to express your opinions on this matter, good or bad.
This will likely happen in the next 2 weeks regardless.

I'm not familiar with either of those, but as long as the move doesn't inhibit JDBC development (and I can't imagine that it would), I wouldn't be concerned either way. I'm curious why SF.net is not an option, simply because that is where I've noticed most open source projects are stored. And if exposure is a factor, what about java.net?

I am not using a CVS build, so my opinion should be taken with a grain of salt, but presumably any changes that affect the CVS build will eventually affect us binary users. Erik
sf.net is generally considered to be a PITA, most folks have moved away from it.

Either way it doesn't matter, most maven projects keep the ant build file around for ant as well. > > > Please feel free to express your opinions on this matter, good or bad. > > This will likely happen in the next 2 weeks regardless. > > I am not using a CVS build, so my opinion should be taken with a grain > of salt, but presumably any changes that affect the CVS build will > eventually affect us binary users.

Hello, Pleasedont use sf.net cvs.It is very slow regards Haris Peco On Wednesday 25 June 2003 12:43 pm, Erik Price wrote: > Dave Cramer wrote: > > What does everyone think about this? > > > > If it has to move, there are other options besides gborg. > > > > codehaus.org is one, they have all the tools installed already to build > > the driver, and the exposure there may be beneficial. > > I'm not familiar with either of those, but as long as the move doesn't > inhibit JDBC development (and I can't imagine that it would), I wouldn't > be concerned either way.

Having the driver @ codehaus.org would be an excellent addition to the suite of projects that already lives there. -pete

Is Maven something that we can install? > Please feel free to express your opinions on this matter, good or bad. > This will likely happen in the next 2 weeks regardless. Tom Lane brought up a point to me this aft in favor of leaving the status quo for this release ... something about v7.3 JDBC driver not working with a v7.4 server, so I'm not going to push on doing this pre-v7.4 ...
