I think that the PPMC already has to deal with people issues (meritocracy isn't free) and I would trust the PPMC to do the right thing at graduation. After all, one of the major graduation requirements is that the podling community "get it" and a big piece of "getting it" is that the committers have earned their karma rights.On Saturday 11 March 2006 03:21, Rodent of Unusual Size wrote:Which is a really long-winded way of saying: At graduation, maybe it's worthwhile to see whether the podling committers actually earned any Apache merit.Agree. That would also allow for a lot lower bar at the start of podlingswithout flooding ASF with inactive committers.However, it may be hard to quantify an "exclusion", and we may see people making commits just for the sake of "passing" which may not be "merit".
Bottom line, I think there's merit in adding a graduation requirement on the PPMC to review the committer list and use their judgement as to which of the initial committers has earned the right to continue.
