Your comments about the "optionality" of consultations elicited my political response.
Many ASF members were involved with Apache at one point or another. Moreover, Jakarta has quite a few influential, I dare say, very influential, members. Thus, it is not easy to emphasize with the sense of victimization shared by some Jakarta committers. If proportionally too few Jakarta committers are ASF members, which I honestly doubt to be the case, what is keeping existing Jakarta members from increasing their own representation?
matters of scope are less important than matters of community. if strong community backing emerges then the scope issues can easily be solved. if no community emerges then matters of scope will become irrelevant.
It all depends on how you define community. By community do you mean Jakarta Commons, Jakarta or the rest of the ASF?
