[orbit-dev] Orbit and bundles under "parallel IP for mature projects"
|
Hi
all,
I recently added
JSch-0.1.41 and Commons-Net-2.0 to Orbit.
Both are
"approved under the terms of parallel IP for mature
projects".
This basically says,
we can check in to CVS because an initial scan of a diff has been made, compared
to a previous version that has been approved before. The one condition to be met
is, that all downloads of such "not yet fully approved bundles" must be
clearly marked:
I think, that the
actual download also needs clearer markup in the table that
lists all bundles:
for instance a
separate column with a red marker or icon indicating that IP is in progress,
plus a hover that explains what it means? -- Unfortunately, I have no idea how
to actually do that. And, before filing a bugzilla, I wanted to solicit opinions
here.
Background Info:
What does work
nicely today, is the IP Log information (based on my edits to the IP Log XML
File):
(1) set
the status to "in-progress" and
(2) add
a note clarifying the status.
This does nicely
display when diving into the IP Logs from the download page (click on
com.jcraft.jsch which is the 4th bundle from
here):
and you see
this:
Thoughts?
Cheers,
