I think that's a valid fear and this project should organize itself in such a way that those kinds of power/control issues are avoided (or at least left up to those who are doing the work). > There could also be a fear that we'll be lead by a small elite of non-J-C > members in how a PMC works. If there are things wrong with any PMC, then they need to be fixed. Unfortunately, there are multiple ways to get anything done [at the ASF]. Anyway, I don't think this is a legit fear of moving to A-C as long as the power over the code is kept in the hands of the people who care and the people who are doing the work*. * And I believe we can do that while maintaining legal ASF oversight. -aaron
