I agree with Sam that if we do not formalize this as a committee it will die.
I understand and acknowledge the reasons why this being part of ComDev makes sense: simplicity and agility to get off the ground. However, this rationale still treats the effort to embrace the need for a Diversity and Inclusion strategy as a proof of concept, expecting it will die. I have committed to make this happen and the commitment includes driving this through the bureocracy needed to make the group and efforts part of the ASF DNA. If we do not do it now, it will just become what Naomi mentioned: yet another try. I am happy to walk the walk and structure work and needs to make this happen. I would suggest we still aim for the committee or at least define a clear goal to hit for it to graduate to that level. Right now the success.measurement is unclear and vague.
