Looking at the second document (which appears to be more official than the first) reveals two uses of "(Reference to Charter)". After some study I can't resolve these references nor figure out what the proper procedure to follow is. Any enlightenment would be appreciated.
Not something that you need to worry about, although the PMC does. Those are references to the Incubator project's charter.
I disagree with this sentiment at such a fundamental level. Everyone actively involved with the project needs to understand the processes that surround it.
Patting David on the head and telling him not to worry is the type of condescension we have come to expect from the PMC and is the most likely thing out there to lead to the demise of this project.
One thing that I, wearing my PMC Member hat, will want to see is that we have put the JBoss situation to bed. Yes, we want to put out a milestone, but I think that we need to make sure that the allegations have been answered via appropriate channels. I could be wrong on that, but I'd rather error on the side of caution, and hear that I am wrong from those with more experience in this particular legal arena.
As a lowly project committer, I too would like to know the matter has been resolved too. I imagine everyone in the community and a fair number of people outside feel the same way. That we cannot even consider the future of the project shows that the FUD is working.
