Agreed, but currently as an IPMC member I have a hard time keeping up with all projects. So I think this comes back, as already suggested, to having some form of mentors "report on community diversity" when the time comes to graduate. The mentors are in the best position to get a feel for the actual diversity, based on the indicators defined in [1], which I agree is basically fine. Another thing that worries me a bit is projects coming in with a large (N=more than 3 or 5?) number of committers from the same organization, especially people who have no previous Apache or open source committer experience. Do we want to set a limit on N, to give the project more chances to reach the necessary diversity? -Bertrand [1] http://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html#community --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
