Hi all,

Here's the page describing what is needed for an incubating project to
become a top level project:

https://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html

In there is stated:

"...you need to appoint a Chair for your project. It is up to the PPMC to
choose one person to act as the chair after graduation."

How do we want to do this, I suppose it is a question of putting vote
threads together for as many people as want to volunteer to be the PMC
chair?

The tasks are light: "The primary duty of a PMC chair is providing
quarterly reports to the board about the health and status of their
project."

See: https://apache.org/foundation/governance/pmcs.html

>From my perspective, it would be a strong indicator of the independence of
NetBeans from Oracle if the PMC chair were to NOT be from Oracle. The
opposite argument is that every individual contributor is equal and it
doesn't matter where the PMC chair comes from. Still, ideally, I think, it
would not be me or someone from Oracle.

However, I believe there are several people available to take on the PMC
chair role. Should we start be seeing who wants to volunteer themselves for
this role? Or how do we want to do this?

Thanks,

Gj
