With two options on the table, I think we need to put this to bed quickly so
I am calling for a vote between the two following options:
Option #1 from Davanum Srinivas: Step #1: 1 week of Nominations. Existing committers can nominate new committers by sending a note to the dev mailing list. Step #2: One of the ASF sponsors consolidates the list of nominations and starts a VOTE on the dev mailing list. VOTE is open for 1 week. Existing committers can use +1/+0/-0/-1 to indicate their preference in an email to the dev mailing list. Step #3: ASF sponsor conveys the result of the VOTE to the incubator PMC and asks for permission to add the new committers.
Option #2 from Ryan Ackley: Step #1: Any committer can propose someone as a committer at any time. The proposing committer generally lists their contributions and why they should be made a committer. Step #2: Any current committer can vote on the new committer. The vote is open for 3 days and requires consensus ( three +1's and no -1's) as per http://incubator.apache.org/drafts/voting.html (note this is a different link than Ryan's original) Step #3: A positive result is handled as per http://incubator.apache.org/drafts/newcommitters.html
We go with whichever option gets the highest score after three days (+1's
less -1's) unless the outcome is obvious.
My vote: Option #1: -0 jboynes - I think we should use a standard process from the beginning for all committers rather than a custom one
Option #2: +1 jboynes - It's the normal process
