Re: [bv-dev] Welcome, infrastructure and presentation

Hello everyone, Welcome to this group and thanks for joining. I have been waiting for the summer vacations to end before soliciting you. But now is the time to start. I have been working mainly on the infrastructure of the specification with to goal to streamline our work as much as possible. The goal for this infra is to: - work the spec in the open - make contributions as easy as possible - have me do less work :) *Infrastructure* The spec has: - a website http://beanvalidation.org - source repositories https://github.com/beanvalidation (spec, API, TCK and the website itself) - a mailing list (this one) - a forum for more casual interactions (not sure it is useful) - a issue tracker http://beanvalidation.org/issues All publicly accessible. The portal for everything Bean Validation is http://beanvalidation.org. People can find the latest news as well as information on how to contribute. I encourage you to read the contribute section http://beanvalidation.org/contribute. This page (and associated pages) explains how to contribute to the specification document, the API, the TCK, the RI and even the beanvalidation.org website itself. Let me know if you think something needs to be refined and clarified. *Process* I have listed the main goals of this specification in http://beanvalidation.org/roadmap/ but the true source is the issue tracker http://beanvalidation.org/issues. Our first objective is going to make sure that what we want to do is in JIRA and sort the work in decreasing priority. Once this settled, I will call for one or two subjects at a given time on which we can brainstorm on this mailing list and or on the issue tracker before converging and writing a proposal (see http://beanvalidation.org/contribute/specification/). I don't have to be the one writing a proposal necessarily. All of this is a base proposal for our work, we can change it. So feel free to speak up and contribute. Let the fun start!
