Who take the lead ?florent andré 2010-11-22, 09:46
Hi all,
We are many to be interesting in this great Droids project and have many ideas for the future (recent mails show this). Thorsten, thanks to him, leads this project till now, but don't have still much time for it (and we understand him ! :) ) So, I think it could be cool if someone (or two, three,...) with enough karma, can charge of taking the lead of this project. Have a lead is a requirement to ensure a good growing of "baby Droids" imho. Cheers, ++

Re: Who take the lead ?Ross Gardler 2010-11-22, 11:03
We don't have leaders in ASF projects. What is needed is for people to participate.
If those who have shown interest are not committers then they need to submit patches and existing committers or mentors will deal with them until we vote in new committers Let's see those patches...

RE: Who take the lead ?Tony Dietrich 2010-11-22, 12:57
While there may not be an official 'post' of project leader, it has long been my experience that any project benefits from someone to co-ordinate it, motivate the contributors, arbitrate disputes and provide direction.
This applies equally to open source projects such as Droids. One of the missing factors in this particular project which probably contributes significantly to the lack of uptake is the lack of documentation. No-one LIKES writing tech docs, but without them it makes it extremely difficult for anyone to adopt the technology without investing huge amounts of time. I've been monitoring this project for some time, as a mature Droids implementation would be useful in another project I'm involved in. I understand the objectives - but simply haven't the time amongst other projects to delve into the code to figure out how to actually use Droids. A simple example project would be of great use to adopters. <just my observation> Tony Dietrich -----Original Message----- From: Ross Gardler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 22 November 2010 11:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Droids Dev list Subject: Re: Who take the lead ?

Re: Who take the lead ?Paul Rogalinski 2010-11-22, 13:14
100% Agree,
I see no point in commiting any patches as long nobody feels responsible for reviewing & incorporating those into the svn-trunk. That would come very close to a project lead as I had it in mind. Can be one person or a group - I don't care as long there is some instance responsible for steering the project. This involves some JIRA maintenance, code reviews, discussions about the idea of the project (what should and what should not go into droids-core), coordinating documentation efforts etc. I wonder how many committers are still active around here?

I'm not a committer, but I am a mentor.
Submit your patches and they will be reviewed and applied. As for docs, I agree. Submit your patches and they will be reviewed and applied.

Hi,
I have enough karma and I already seen many TODOs and even bad coding practices in Droids so that I decided not to use it... I'd use it but there are so many frequent core changes which I need so that it would be hard without having comitter's access... and probably many others have similar feelings... I am also familiar with Nutch, BIXO, and many other stuff Right now I have specific requirements (vertical search + RSS ping), I can use Droids for this; I am planning to use HBase + SOLR too. -Fuad -----Original Message----- From: florent andré [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: November-22-10 4:46 AM To: Droids Dev list Subject: Who take the lead ?

Re: Who take the lead ?Ross Gardler 2010-11-22, 14:48
A patch that fixes this, and just this would be easy to review and apply.
If you have the energy and desire then go for it. If not - fair enough let's allow Droids to go to sleep. This was suggested recently, people said "no", we need to see community and code if the project is to stay alive. I don't use it. I don't care one way or the other - if others cars then I'll apply appropriate parches until someone earns sufficient merit. Ross Sent from my mobile device.

I think what we're seeing here is that there is a community interested in using Droids. However, either they're not sure on how to use it (documentation), or not sure if they're contributions back will be committed. To the community: For documentation, it is true that many of us don't like writing documentation. Perhaps it might be useful if people started asking questions about how to do X. That can help guide where the documentation needs to go. Others on this list may have answers to your questions. If you have patches or enhancements, offer them up. Put them into Jira so that we can all see them and make sure they get applied. Richard

I'd suggest that the Droids team could boost their participation level immensely by providing a simple bootstrapping/quickstart document. Something like Apache Click[1] where, in a couple simple steps you can download a jar, write a handful of code, and see "something." Something doesn't have to be useful - it has to be simple enough to entice me to learn more on my own - pointing to the test code isn't going to drive much adoption I think. --tim [1] - http://click.apache.org/

Re: Who take the lead ?Ryan McKinley 2010-11-23, 01:44
Hello-
Life has swooped up most of my time (baby, work etc)... so I have not been able to focus on droids at all. Earlier this year, i think we added two more committers, but i think things have been pretty quiet since then: http://search-lucene.com/m/49fNpCl04N http://search-lucene.com/m/Via2e2c1VPF In general, patches are *the* way to get karma and move the project forward. It is easy for us to talk about wanting the project to improve, but without action not much will happen. For people who want to help keep droids alive, patches are the best way to help. ryan On Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 1:48 PM, Richard Frovarp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 11/22/2010 08:48 AM, Ross Gardler wrote: >> >> A patch that fixes this, and just this would be easy to review and apply. >> >> If you have the energy and desire then go for it.

Like Ross said we do not have and do not need an official leader in a healthy Apache project since is based on the community! I investigated Droids as a labs project and people started to use it. Then it came into incubation and I did not found the time anymore to review all the code changes and keep up with the enhancement suggestion on the list (e.g. Ming Fai). Matter of fact is that there are many things to do where you do not need any karma: - review patches - discuss code enhancements - prepare releases - writing documentation - answering eMails - etc. That can be done by the whole community (with and without commit rights). We have successfully celebrated community days where we reviewed and committed the patch stack and seeing the recent threads it can be seen that there are a lot of people either using or monitoring Droids. IMO the best way to proceed is to pin down a release and then move forward designing a new version which incorporates the most common use cases. Further we should review the architecture regarding the different componentes, so Droids can run in different environment like GAE [1], Android, .... I am happy to see that there IS a community of followers and hope that together we can: a) do a release b) leave the incubator c) create a "community" version of Droids where we review the architecture Last but not least I never said I will leave the project, nor that I will not spent any time on it. I am happy to be part of the community and help where I can, but I cannot do it by myself anymore. So if you find a "junior programming error" then please submit a patch to fix it rather then just pointing it out, that helps the project. If you just started with Droids and the first steps you took to get coding are still in the back of your head, write documentation, that helps the project. If somebody ask a question on the ml, try to answer it even if you do not know the solution, that helps the project. I believe that Apache Droids is very useful and can be very successful if we all work together. salu2 [1] http://search-lucene.com/m/h2isH1e495V/v=threaded -- Thorsten Scherler <thorsten.at.apache.org> codeBusters S.L. - web based systems <consulting, training and solutions> http://www.codebusters.es/

Re: Who take the lead ?Sylvain Garaud 2010-11-23, 13:25
Hello all,
I monitor the droids project since a long time now without contributing for nothing. My first goal was to find an inspiration source to design a robot. At that time, I already had a simple implementation inspired by the source code published by Andreas Hess. I really think that the project is a solid foundation for designing powerful crawlers. >From my point of view, few use cases using the core API should be published, starting by the documentation. Some old web crawler implementation not using the core API should be removed because it makes things difficult to understand. I will publish some documentation on how I used the droid core API for my use case, which is interfacing droids with the java ROME library.

without action not much will happen. And, the best action is to contribute into incubator thousands of a much-better-quality projects, few-man-week each. Yes, but first of all we need good documentation, because Droids still looks like _UGLIEST_ IoC rewrite (Spring, Cocoon, and even other IoCs!!!) of a _buggy_ (and hard-to-customize) Nutch-Robot-Parser-OSGi... and it was even advertised as a _polite_ Robot (as an Apache subproject specifically designed for "Polite Internet Crawler" use case) So, what about (HTTP) Robot, how much work remaining to make it polite? 2-years-behind-Nutch-BIXO-Heritrix? And, is it easy to plugin HBase Sink? Wonderfully, your framework doesn't use Hibernate & Compass. -Fuad (action)

RE: Who take the lead ?Fuad Efendi 2010-11-24, 01:03
And how long is it (Apache! Droids) in (Apache!) Incubator... 3 years? How much progress? Community increase? (10%? Or 1000%?) Close it. Value time... This is more than enough to make decision regarding _bad_programming_skills_: public class Loggable { protected final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(this.getClass()); protected Loggable() { } } Especially this: public class HtmlParser extends Loggable implements Parser { ... } Ok... but for most modern use cases having just parser is not enough!!!!!!!!! We need statistics; for instance, how many nodes have subnodes without anchors? I don't see _any_ (suitable) use case... where Droids can compete with others. And, if Droids wants to survive, please, publish Use Cases at first. Because my first impression (few years ago) was that Droids is a Framework to design Robots, but I didn't find anything helpful in codebase.

A patch would offer some more concrete, objective feedback that the community could evaluate. Thanks, --tim

Sending content to SOLR is relatively easy. I've created a crawler based on Droids that does just that. In short, mentors in the Incubator at the ASF are there to make sure that the project develops a healthy community in the Apache Way. Mentors volunteer their time to help with community actions. They don't necessarily have to use the project themselves.

Re: Who take the lead ?Eugen Paraschiv 2010-12-04, 11:02
Hi,
I've added a few relatively small issues on the JIRA and I'm still waiting for some feedback from someone (hopefully someone with commit rights), so that I know that the issues are valid and I can begin working on them: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-92 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DROIDS-106 After the spike in communication related to the project (which I think was very good), I was hoping someone can take the time to look at these, as this is the kind of thing that gets thing moving. My goal is to keep adding issues and perhaps integrate some of my work back into the trunk, but in order for people to do this, we do need a minimal amount of direction, especially starting out. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks. Eugen. On Wed, Nov 24, 2010 at 6:05 PM, Fuad Efendi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > And imagine Cocoon is better powered by Saxon...

Eugene,
I've got your issues in my todo list. I'll get to them as soon as I can (which will be days at least). Hopefully some else can review them before I find the time and I can just get on with committing. Your efforts are appreciated. Sorry I've not been able to find the time yet. There is also at least one patch from another contribute awaiting attention. Sent from my mobile device.

One other thing to keep in mind... JIRA issues without patches often
look like requests for someone else to do work. I tend to ignore them 'till there is somethign to look at. The mailing list is a better place to say 'how do people feel about changing XXX' and see if it is a non-starter, something other people want to help with, or don't care one way or the other. As Ross said, if folks don't speak up, and there is real work done, that counts as consensus :) thanks ryan On Sat, Dec 4, 2010 at 12:18 PM, Eugen Paraschiv <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Actually, there is no patch attached to my issues.
