I'd still like to make the distinction between "anyone who has an ICLA
on file" and "someone who is interested enough in OpenJPA to ask for a
change in JIRA status".
Until it becomes a burden on infrastructure (us) to recognize
contributors, I don't see a need to change the process.

Doesn't look like it. The "jira-users" only means they have a JIRA
account, but might not have an ICLA on file. The "all-developers"
group contains everyone that is currently in a project developer
group (current committers).... So adding the all-developers group
would allow existing committers to contribute, but would still
require manually adding any non-committers (sounds like a good
compromise.)

Hi,
It seems like this should be automated. Isn't there a JIRA group
for anyone
who has an ICLA on file? If so we should just add that group to our
contributors list.

Don,
Thanks for the explanation. I kind of like the Geronimo approach
of being
more lenient and open with contributors. And, Craig likes the
idea as
well. In that light, I have granted Contributor access to drwoods.
Thanks,
Kevin

I'm working on new patches for OPENJPA-772 now. From years of

Geronimo, I now that keeping a well maintained project pom can go
a long
way
in minimizing build surprises (like not using pinned maven
plugins which
can
break builds when newer plugin versions are released) and making
the
release
process less error prone (like using the ianal plugin during normal
builds
to catch missing legal files.)
As far as contributors, over on Geronimo, we'll add anyone to our
geronimo-contributors group who asks, as long as they have an
ICLA on
file.
That allows new community members to assign existing unassigned
JIRAs to
themselves, so we don't end up with multiple people working the
same
issue.
We also use it to control edit access to our Confluence user docs
(other
spaces like our main site can only be edited by committers), so
that all
web
content we produce is covered by an ICLA.

Hi Don,
Thanks for your enthusiasm to work with and contribute to the
OpenJPA
project. Normally, we like to see some continued participation
on our
forums and JIRAs before just adding people to the Contributor
list.
Maybe
that's different from the Geronimo project. Is there a specific
JIRA
issue
that you are interested in working on?
Thanks,
Kevin
