Ole-Egil,
I too am tempted to close down the project, there has been no activity for
several months really (other than some work identifying a JVM to use),
attempts to get completed code out of a few people who have said they have
completed bits of work seems fruitless, although I do apologise for not
following up on the dependancy DB with you.

The only thing we can do at the moment is to
1: make the list invite-only (because anyone can join, send spam, then
leave)
2: shut down the list (because there must be a bug in mailman which
allowed that email through, and I'm not going to host this list other
than through mailman).
I'm leaning towards the latter. As it is, we have
almost a hundred
people here, and still NO work gets done. This leads me to conclude that
this list does not fulfill the needs, that programmers could have a
place to get together to discuss OO.org. We obviously did not catch
enough active programmers to reach critical mass.
The question is, do we really have a way forward, or
are we just
grasping at straws?
If there was ANY interest, I would start by finishing
off the dependency
database I started on, but after a year of no activity I have yet to see
a single request for updates... Even though I specifically asked for
feedback.
And even if I finish the database, data still needs to
be entered. Would
we do that? Do we know what needs doing without such a tool?
