[xmlvm-users] Status of XMLVM

[Arno P. <ar...@pu...>]

Hi,

there were a couple of messages on this list and I wanted to take the
opportunity to mention the status quo of XMLVM. As you can easily tell
from the code repository, there hasn't been any activity in a long time.
For all practical purposes, development and maintenance have stopped
quite a while ago. XMLVM pushed the envelope on what is possible for
cross-platform tools and I am immensely proud on what we were able to
accomplish. For me as an academic it was a wonderful vehicle for my
research projects. But we simply never had the resources to build a
rock-solid tool and while we have gotten some great contributions, the
Open Source process never quite kicked in for us.

I know that XMLVM is still used by some, but only for very special
corner cases. If anyone is interested to contribute to XMLVM either by
donating their time or funding, please let me know. I do have a long
laundry list of things that need to be done. :)

Hey Arno,




I use XMLVM as the backend of a cross-platform mobile game framework (the “AbsurdEngine”). I have a fork that implements some functions in native_java_net_InetAddress.c (giving Android-to-iOS HTTP support) and adds some methods missing from the Android graphics compatibility libraries. I’d love to contribute these and any other changes I make 😊 what is the process for submitting?


My code is here: https://bitbucket.org/smpsnr/xmlvm-absurdengine

Hi Sam,

the information for how to contribute is here:
https://sites.google.com/a/xmlvm.org/documentation/developing-xmlvm/

This should show up on our website under "contribute" but is currently
broken, appologies for that, we'll get that fixed.

You can start by filling out and sending the CLA form our way:
http://www.xmlvm.org/contribute/cla.php
