Hi,
Let me summarize what we have on the list:
> Mike Kienenberger - [20/Jun/07 01:56 PM ]
> I don't see a problem with just throwing "Unsupported" exceptions
> for cases like this.
+1
> Øyvind Harboe - [20/Jun/07 01:57 PM ]
> WIll an adapter that has lots of unsupported exceptions be
> considered for committing to the repository or will it sit in JIRA
> forever?
> Ari Maniatis - [21/Jun/07 03:09 AM ]
> I believe the tests for what should go into the Cayenne project are:
>
> * can it be licensed under the Apache license
> * is it useful to users of Cayenne generally
> * is the code documented and clear enough that others can continue
> to build upon it and add those missing features if they want to
>
> I'm not in a position to help test the code since we don't use
> Access or FoxPro here at all, but I'm sure others will be able to
> give it a good workout.

> If you'd like to give it more chance of making it into Cayenne, you
> could repackage it for the Cayenne trunk (with org.apache
> namespace), add the Apache licensing headers to all files and flesh
> out the Javadocs to ensure there is complete documentation about
> what is implemented and what isn't.

> I am sure your contribution will be useful to a great many people.
+1 - I agree with Ari. We will certainly accept it, but please help
us a bit to get it in. Also would it be possible for you to sign a
Contributor License Agreement and send it to the ASF:
"Grant license to ASF" checkbox in Jira should be sufficient in this
case, but just to be on a safe side and to simplify any potential
future work ;-)
Thanks
Andrus
