I believe that most board members (I can confirm at least two at the
moment) would prefer that activity towards resolving this action
continue. Based on my experience with Jakarta, I view it hightly
likely
that should a suitable chair candidate gain consensus amoungst the
proposed PMC members that this recommendation would be given
significant
weight.
so lets see if there's consensus......

What follows is an alphabetical list of the committers that have so far
opted to be on the PMC, their willingness to be the PMC Chair if asked:
Person Prepared to be chair?
-----------------------------------------------------
Nicola Ken Barozzi yes
Marcus Crafter not specified
Peter Donald yes
Paul Hammant not specified
Berin Loritsch yes
Stephen McConnell yes
Peter Royal not specified
Leo Sutic not specified
Leo Simons yes
Jeff Turner not specified
Carsten Ziegeler not specified
Leo Sutic, Paul Hammant and Stephen McConnell have indicated they are
agreeable to having Nicola Ken Barozzi be the chair. Leo Simons is too.
Jason van Zyl (non-committer) has indicated he is agreeable to having
Berin Loritsch be the chair.
Stephen McConnell has indicated that he is agreeable to having Leo be
the chair. He hasn't specified which Leo :)
Sutric !
Woops - has anyone noticed that I have a problem with names?
Sorry Leo!
:-)
(who I'd like to see taking a spot as chair one day soon - along with
yourself )
Nicola Ken Barozzi so far seems to be the most likely candidate to get
consensus. As he has indicated that he is okay with discussion of his
candidacy being held in public, I think the logical next step is to see
how broad support for having Nicola be chair is?
+1 for Nicolas as chair.
I think the nicola scenario works for a number of reasons - he's sort
of a loose Avalon person (which sounds a bit odd but its mean
constructively) - floating here floating there, worked with most of
us, never got locked into any particular playground - has an
understanding of the *real* issues that are present, has a picture in
his head of a united avalon, and has the patience to work though the
transition. He also wants to resign in three months or so which is a
very good indicator that he's doing this for all the right reasons.
Cheers, Steve.
p.s. Who would love to see a good healthy rotating chair policy so all
of the people here can get in there and use the oppotunity to take
avalon that much further - instead of an overhead, a challenge!
:-)
cheers,
- Leo
