Hi, This was already discussed on members@ but others in my TLP community are still not satisfied and want a more "public" discussion.
I think the main question is whether [1] is a policy document and therefore satisfies the "stated otherwise" clause in this document [2]. The answer I got on members@ is that [1] is not a policy document and therefore a vote as to whether to make someone a committer defaults to majority rules unless the TLP has voted otherwise, and a -1 vote is not a veto unless the TLP has voted otherwise. And if that's true, would it be ok to be more explicit on [1] that it isn't a policy document? I know it says that "Each project has different approaches to managing new committers" but it still could mean that this is the policy unless the TLP has voted differently. 1. http://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html 2. http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html Thanks in advance, -Alex --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
