Re: [seam-dev] Seam 3 development

Seam Team, My name is Piotr (Peter) Steininger and I am a former Amentra/RedHat consultant living in the Washington, DC area. I've worked on a number of consulting projects using Seam 2 as a solutions architect and a tech/dev lead. I learned to love a lot of Seam's features (and got to know a lot of it inside and out), and got to experience many challenges of using Seam in (both technical and political). Since the experience I gained has been paying my bills for a while, I feel that this is the time to pay back, and invest my time and skills into Seam and Weld, which I am very excited about and want to promote for future projects. So I'd like to contribute to Seam 3 code in some way, to accelerate the time line. I would also love to help build some solid examples (beyond booking, number guess, etc - something with hands and legs - I have a few ideas, which I'll be putting down on paper pretty soon). I checked out the sources for modules one by one, but I can't seem to build some of them (ie. seam-bpm). Maven complains that it can't find seam-parent:3.0.0-SNAPSHOT. I found a trace of it on repository.sonatype.org <http://repository.sonatype.org> (http://repository.sonatype.org/content/groups/public/org/jboss/seam/seam-...), but no pom, just metadata. How can I get around it? I have to admit I am totally new to the process of contributing to open-source since I've been on consulting gigs pretty much behind closed doors, so I am not sure where to start. I tried to find some more detailed developer docs, but I probably did not dig deep enough. I appreciate in advance any advice and direction. Thanks, Piotr _______________________________________________ seam-dev mailing list seam-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/seam-dev
