Thank you for the nomination and the support!
I’ll draft a resolution. However, before getting to a resolution, it
would be really great to get some more thoughts/input on the composition
of the PMC.
Clearly there have been varying levels of activity and the question is
if we should aim for a
a) bigger PMC with a large number of inactive members or
b) a smaller PMC of more active members.
If we opt for b), I think that Yingyi’s proposal is a sensible one.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Till

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.

2-5-ish
years
range. :-)

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.
