Hi - Being a PMC Member is not a special status, there are basically four responsibilities.
(1) Making binding release votes. Those who test and vote on releases will be noticed. (2) Handling security issues which is necessarily private. The PMC may add Committers to the Security Team. Many of our recent 4.1.x releases have been driven by security concerns. (3) Handling trademark issues which is also a private concern. (4) Recognizing contributors and adding committers and PMC members to the project. For AOO there is a challenge in recognizing contributions that happen somewhere where the contribution is not visible on [email protected] or [email protected]. If a community member thinks the PMC needs to recognize someone’s contribution then please email [email protected] The PMC Chair has the additional responsibility of quarterly reports to The ASF Board of Directors. The PMC helps the chair. All The Best, Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
