Guillaume is busy presenting Groovy talks at JavaOne so he asked me to summarise the vote results.
I am happy to announce that the PPMC vote to graduate Groovy from the incubator has passed with 10 binding +1 votes, 2 non-binding +1 votes and no other votes. Binding votes: Guillaume Laforge, Cédric Champeau, Paul King, Emmanuel Lécharny, Bertrand Delacretaz, Andrew Bayer, Jochen Theodorou, Jim Jagielski, Pascal Schumacher, Konstantin Boudnik Non-binding votes: Russel Winder, Guillaume Alleon There was also some minor rewording done for the Graduation Resolution for the board. The revised version is included below for completeness. Andrew Bayer and Konstantin Boudnik (two of our mentors) have indicated their willingness to assist the PMC (at least in our early stages). I have taken the liberty of adding both your names to the PMC list but please let us know if you want to keep the arrangement less formal without official PMC duties - we'd love to have you officially on-board but we'll fully understand if your existing commitments might dictate an informal role at this point in time. Cheers, Paul. =============== Establish the Apache Groovy Top-Level Project 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 evolution and maintenance of the Groovy programming language, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management Committee (PMC), to be known as the "Apache Groovy Project", be and hereby is established pursuant to Bylaws of the Foundation; and be it further RESOLVED, that the Apache Groovy Project be and hereby is responsible for the evolution and maintenance of the Groovy programming language; and be it further RESOLVED, that the office of "Vice President, Apache Groovy" 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 Groovy Project, and to have primary responsibility for management of the projects within the scope of responsibility of the Apache Groovy Project; and be it further RESOLVED, that the persons listed immediately below be and hereby are appointed to serve as the initial members of the Apache Groovy Project PMC: Cédric Champeau <cedric.champ...@gmail.com> Paul King <pa...@asert.com.au> Guillaume Laforge <glafo...@gmail.com> Pascal Schumacher <pascalschumac...@gmx.net> Jochen Theodorou <blackd...@gmx.org> Andrew Bayer <andrew.ba...@gmail.com> Konstantin Boudnik <c...@apache.org> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Guillaume Laforge be appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Groovy, to serve in 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 Apache Groovy Project be and hereby is tasked with the migration and rationalization of the Apache Incubator Groovy podling; and be it further RESOLVED, that all responsibilities pertaining to the Apache Incubator Groovy podling encumbered upon the Apache Incubator Project are hereafter discharged.
