About the issue of openness and closeness:
board@ is *public* for all the ASF members. (Any ASF
members can be a *read only member* to the board@ list)
board@ is open list? close list?
WS (WebServices) project discuss most of the important
issues at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] at the same time.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is open list? close list?

I think that jakarta should choose an appropriate method
which suffices for most of the jakarta committers' needs.
For example:
Create topics for discussion -- PMC list
Vote -- general@ (or another appropriate list : important issues)
PMC list (trivial issues)
Report to all the jakarta committers -- general@

It seems that most of the committers in jakarta do not know
this fact. Before the discussion of *openness/closeness*,
I think we should have common understanding on this.
