It may be an option. Again this is the PPMC decision to openly vote publicly or privately. Those are interesting things to read : https://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html#new-committer-process " There are no ASF wide rules on how to decide when to make someone a committer, podlings need to agree an approach that works for them. Some ASF projects have a high bar requiring significant contributions before someone is considered, other projects grant it more freely to anyone who shows interest in contributing. Some projects use formal [DISCUSS] and [VOTE] threads on the private mailing list, others use a more lazy consensus approach." One reason why most of the projects vote ne committers on the private mailing list is that it allows the PMC members to have a frank discussion. Most of the time, it's a clear cut, but sometimes, some concerns might be voiced. We do not favor privacy too much, but to some extent, some decisions have to be done behing close doors. Starting a vote which ends with a negative result can be devastating... Bottom line : " Private lists are typically only used for matters pertaining to people as individuals (like voting in new committers), and legal matters that require confidentiality."
