最近重新整理開發(fā)環(huán)境,上Ivy的網(wǎng)站看了看,才知道Ivy項(xiàng)目已經(jīng)在去年底加入了Apache孵化器,這個(gè)消息讓我們最值得期待看看的就是Ivy會(huì)為Ant和Maven帶來什么樣的改變,Ivy本身又會(huì)如何發(fā)展?
Ivy 開發(fā)者給出了加入Apache的四個(gè)主要原因,如果是按重要性先后順序排列的話,倒是很有意思:
The maintainers of Ivy are interested in joining the Apache Software Foundation for several reasons:
Ivy has been hosted since its beginning in 2004 by a private company, which make people feel like it's a corporate product, thus slowing the contribution by the community. We strongly believe in the open source movement, and would like to make Ivy independent from Jayasoft.?
???????? Ivy項(xiàng)目自從2004年啟動(dòng)以來就一直放在私人公司的站點(diǎn)上,這使得人們感覺它像一個(gè)商業(yè)產(chǎn)品,阻礙了社區(qū)的交流和發(fā)揮。我們對(duì)開源運(yùn)動(dòng)有強(qiáng)烈的信仰,并且十分愿意讓Ivy項(xiàng)目從 Jayasoft獨(dú)立出來。
We'd like to enjoy the benefits of utilizing Apache's infrastructure and legal protection.
It might open the door for cooperation with other projects, such as Ant or Maven.
We strongly believe in Apache philosophy, especially Meritocracy.
