Given the nature of discussions on [EMAIL PROTECTED], and the need for people on the list to be trusted 100% by everyone who participates, limiting the membership to those who have commit privileges at apache.org seems to be the most sensible decision.
There was a discussion early in the lists life about allowing invited others. The idea never reached a firm consensus and has never been used. More importantly, I don't think that carrying out votes on a list dedicated to enjoyment of life and pursuit of happiness is a good idea! From this point on the policy is therefore altered to restrict membership to ASF committers. Membership of party@ is open to ALL committers on any ASF project. Put another way, if you have an account on ASF hardware you may subscribe :-) See you at the bar! david [EMAIL PROTECTED] :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
