I second that nomination!  He'd be great.

1. VP, chair <=== eyes and ears of the board.
I'd like to nominate Till Westmann as the VP & PMC chair, since he has
already been performing some of the chair duties as described in [1].

TLP resolution:
1. Include all PPMC? (my suggestion, yes)
I guess we could ask existing PPMC who haven't contributed to the project
during the past year to see if they're still interested in being a PMC.

2. Draft of TLP resolution
The Kafka TLP resolution proposal [2] could be a good template for us.

Thanks!

Best,
Yingyi

Mike,

I asked because I wanted to ascertain how quickly a newcomer outside the
UCI circle can come up to speed with the vast asterixdb code-base.

I don't want to hijack this thread so maybe we can start another thread.
I am interested in knowing how one could gain proficiency in participating
in asterixdb development.    What design patterns should one keep in mind,
what hasn't worked historically, what sequence of tasks can one take on to
learn about various parts of the system, etc.

And I would guess there are at least 5 individuals with 10+ years of
industrial experience (apiece) on the current team, if that's one of the
reasons for the inquiry, with a handful more probably in the 2-5-ish
years
range.  :-)

I am curious to know how many committers are from outside the academic
circle (i.e. those who have not worked in the past on Asterixdb at UC
Irvine or other academic institutions ) ?

I think that the current number committers without academic UC heritage
is 3 (it’s an educated guess as I don’t know the CVs of the committers).
Actually, a nice number for a project that was a university project 12
months ago.

Cheers,
Till
