Ryan, Problem is that not much has happened so far...Note that the regular process can be invoked at any time by any committer. I was indeed forcing the issue to show non-committers who are interested that something is happening on that front. No, i never mentioned anything about picking X or Y # of committers. Each person would get a vote +1/-1/+0/-0 as per regular voting rules.
As i said before any way you guys pick is ok as long as something is happening :) -- dims --- Ryan Ackley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Surely the basic ideas are the same, though? > > I was trying to point out that there doesn't have to be a set week for > nominations.
