FW: proposals for project incubation

["Vambenepe, William N" <vbp@hp.com>]

3 of 3! After sending a similar announcement to the WSDM and
WS-Notification TCs it is now my pleasure to forward this email to the
WSRF community to bring to your attention the Apache incubator projects
described below. They all come with contributed code from Globus and HP.
The one of highest interest to this TC is the "Apollo" project, an
open-source implementation of the WSRF specifications.

If you ask me, this should further improve WSRF adoption and
interoperability...

Regards,

William

Subject: proposals for project incubation

Please peruse the three project proposals below for your consideration
as candidates for entry into the Apache Incubator. The text of the full
proposals have been posted to the Incubator wiki - their URLs are
indicated below.

Here is a summary of the proposals:

Apollo (http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/ApolloProposal)

The goal of the Apollo project is to provide a reference implementation
of the WS-ResourceFramework family of specifications.  The initial code
contribution is based on a joint development effort between
Hewlett-Packard and Globus Software.

Hermes (http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/HermesProposal)

The goal of the Hermes project is to provide a reference implementation
of the WS-Notification family of specifications. The initial code
contribution is based on a joint development effort between
Hewlett-Packard and Globus Software.

Muse (http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/MuseProposal)

The goal of the Muse project is to provide a reference implementation of
the Web Services Distributed Management's Management Using Web Services
specification. The initial code contribution is a working version of a
reference implementation for the .5 version of this specification and
consists of code developed by Hewlett-Packard.

Existing Web Services committers, as well as any interested party, are
welcome to join this effort. For more information you can contact Judi
Cowell (judi.cowell@hp.com), Davanum Srinivas (dims@yahoo.com) or John
Mazzitelli (mazz@hp.com).

Thanks.
