I don't see a PMC chairman mentioned in the Incubation docs. I see an Incubator Chairman: http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html#Chair+of+the+Incubator+PMC Chair of the Incubator PMC The person appointed by the Board to have primary responsibility for oversight of the Incubator Project, its policies, and policy implementation. See the rest of this: http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html > Would ASF incubation force us to change this, giving one PMC member greater > authority? Not at all. It would give someone within the ASF proper with some authority over us, to ensure we're doing things by the book. It would not create a new power structure. It's primarily an issue of someone taking responsibility for the boring task(s) of documentation and reporting. > Also, would ASF incubation change the policy of how people are added (or > removed) from the PMC? I think this document might help: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html Specifically the "Voting in a new committer" section. I'd really like for someone to nail down a concrete > page (maybe on the wiki) of: > I. What ASF incubation is > II. What it gives us > III. What it requires > IV. What we must change You have access to the wiki! Start the page you want to see, and fill it in with the information you currently possess. Link the page here, and we can all fill in the missing pieces, as well as ask our own questions. ;) Cheers, Scott --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to habari-users@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to habari-users-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/habari-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
