I was just catching up on my SFist LAist reading and was reading through the comments on a post linking to an LATimes story comparing LA to SF on a green scale. turns out sf wins. Then I saw this comment I thought “Oh no you di’n't”
i have always promoted the awesomeness that is SoCal. without SoCal (specifically, without LA), SF is just another Portland. and i don’t mean that in a good way.
Completely unrelated … I was catching up on BlazeDS forum reading and saw a very good question about OS project management on the project. Here are the questions:
- Who is the project manager(s), senior leads, etc?
- What is the experience level of the project management staff and contributing developers?
- What is the release schedule? What was the historical release schedule?
- What version is BlazeDS in right now?
Tom Jordahl, CF 7 & 8 architect and BDS/LCDS know-it-all, gave a good reply and the about page gives a highlevel answer to the questions, but it’d be great to see this more formalized, either as wiki pages with contact and role information about the higher level participants and accepted contributors. It reminds me of how tricky managing and leading an os project can be, and how much work it’s actually required to get do it right. It’s specially tricky for a project backed by a commercial entity because confusing or missing information can quickly bring suspicion from project users.
If you’re interested in finding out more about BlazeDS I suggest you watch the talk Tom Jordahl gave to the Connecticut CF user group. Also, what’s up with those adobe forums? The formatting’s bleh and it pukes on multipart messages.
