Looks like we missed a step; we need a graduation resolution for the
board to vote on. Here's my proposal, basically copied from Apache
Chemistry's, but I have a question. Since no distinction is made
between the PPMC members and committers in this resolution, and since
many of the original committers/IPMC members have become inactive, and
others have not yet been voted in as PPMC members, how should we deal
with that? Also, do we need to vote on who the vice president will
be? I believe we do... but maybe we can do this as part of the vote
on the resolution itself?
Here's the proposed resolution:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best interests
of the Foundation and consistent with the Foundation's purpose to
establish a Project Management Committee charged with the creation and
maintenance of open-source software providing a framework for
transferring
content from source content repositories to target repositories or
indexes,
including a security model permitting target repositories to enforce
source
repository security, for distribution at no charge to the public;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management Committee
(PMC), to be known as the "Apache ManifoldCF Project", be and hereby is
established pursuant to Bylaws of the Foundation; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache ManifoldCF Project be and hereby is
responsible for the creation and maintenance of software providing a
framework for transferring content from source content repositories to
target repositories or indexes, including a security model permitting
target
repositories to enforce source repository security, for distribution
at no charge to the public.
RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, ManifoldCF" be and hereby
is created, the person holding such office to serve at the direction
of the Board of Directors as the chair of the Apache ManifoldCF
Project, and to have primary responsibility for management of the

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that XXXXX be

accordance with and subject to the direction of the Board of Directors
and the Bylaws of the Foundation until death, resignation, retirement,
removal or disqualification, or until a successor is appointed; and be
it further
RESOLVED, that the initial Apache ManifoldCF Project be and hereby is
tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to encourage open
development and increased participation in the ManifoldCF Project; and
be it further
RESOLVED, that the initial Apache ManifoldCF Project be and hereby is
