I can see the logic in having it work the same way as the board notifications of new PMC members, but that also feels a little unnecessary as the PPMC doesn't have any real standing or binding votes on much at all so i can also appreciate the Incubator PMC just leaving them to it and staying out of their way. ...ant --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
