| Re: [paho-dev] Contribution of MQTT Servers (Mosquitto and RSMB) |

It's really a matter of how you choose to scope the project. A single project has a single group of committers with uniform access to the project resources. The single project has a single downloads area (that can contain language-specific subdirectories), a single website, single release schedule, etc. A project can have multiple git repositories, and builds. There is no restriction in the EDP with regard to languages used by a project. Project management is not particularly difficult, but it is also non-trivial. There is some overhead with regard to managing project metadata, releases, committers, etc. I recommend that you start with a single project. If you discover over time that you're having problems with that model, we can restructure into multiple projects later. I also recommend that you make distinct git repositories for each language (that'll make potential later restructuring a lot easier). HTH, Wayne On 07/17/2013 06:05 AM, Ian Craggs

I can do that. If another server implementation in another language (such as Java) were contributed, would that be another project? If so, this project proposal should say that the implementation language is C, and leave open the possibility of other MQTT servers. --
