Shouldn't PMC Chair's either be (1) willing to respond or (2) able find someone in their project? This isn't that onerous of a task and it provides the PRC with a ready made list of contacts.
On the PRC list it was suggested that when someone from the media visits one of our sites, it's not clear who to contact with a press inquiry. We purposely funnel all inquiries to the public lists, and someone from the media might not be comfortable posting to a public list. Very few of our project sites mention how to contact us regarding press or security inquiries. It was suggested that many media folks might be discouraged from contacting us at all, and so our perspective is going unheard. In my experience, persistent inquirers do tend to contact one or more committers at random with press or security questions. Perhaps we should at least encourage projects to mention press@ and security@ on the project sites, as we do on the top-level apache.org site. For example, I just updated the Struts FAQ to include how to contacting us regarding security or press inquiries. * http://struts.apache.org/kickstart.html#press -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
