On first blush, these seem inconsistent. My preference is that PPMCs be treated as PMCs with mentors. This leads to two potential alternatives to what you suggest: 1) only allow [P]PMC members to invite submissions for an ICLA. In rare cases, ASF members, IPMC members, or whatever can modify a [P]PMC to include themselves so that they can send an invite, and afterwards can remove themselves. 2) allow members to send invites (and IPMC members to send invites for PPMC, though with only a few exceptions, all IPMC members are ASF members), relying on notifications to the [P]PMC to ensure that the invite is in the interest of the community. I'm OK with either of these (and not strongly opposed to your original suggestion), with my preferred order being 1, 2, 0 (with zero being your original suggestion). My reasoning: "let me do that for you" misses out on a teachable moment. > WDYT? > > Craig > > Craig L Russell > Secretary, Apache Software Foundation > [email protected] http://db.apache.org/jdo - Sam Ruby
