Thanks Troy, It is very good.
DIGY -----Original Message----- From: Troy Howard [mailto:thowar...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, January 06, 2011 7:47 PM To: lucene-net-dev@lucene.apache.org Subject: Proposal Status, Initial Committors List, Contributors List All, Thanks for all the recent activity in the mailing lists. I'm really eager to get this project moving forward and the discussions going on now are exactly what we need to do that. Calling attention back to the Incubator proposal, the outstanding needs for completing that proposal are: - Build Initial Committers list - Ensure that Committers have all submitted a CLA - Ensure that the proposal is inline with community interest The current draft of the proposal is located at: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/Lucene.Net%20Proposal For each of those goals: Build Initial Committers List ------------------------------------------- I have updated the proposal to reflect the current state of the Initial Committers list. The list, at present is (alphabetical): - Chris Currens - DIGY - Michael Herndon - Prescott Nasser - Scott Lombard - Sergey Mirvoda - Troy Howard The only other person who has been discussed as a Committer, but hasn't stated formally that they are interested in that role is Heath Aldrich (there was some discussion, but no resolution). So, Heath, if you'd like to be on the Initial Committers list, please send a quick message indicating your interest. Additionally, the following people have come forward as willing Contributors (alphabetical): - Alex Thompson - Ben Martz - Frank Yu - Glyn Darkin - Peter Mateja - Shashi Kant - Simone Chiaretta - Wyatt Barnett Ensure that Committers Have All Submitted a CLA --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For those of you on the Initial Committers list, we will need to submit CLAs for each developer before being granted commit access. Currently the only person on that list who has submitted a CLA is DIGY. I'll be sending mine in today, and I encourage the rest of you to do so by the end of the week. Information about the CLA, and how to submit is located here: http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas Ensure That the Proposal Is Inline With Community Interest -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So far, I have not heard any feedback from the community about the text of the Incubator Proposal. Please review the current draft, and if you have any reservations about the contents or language, feel that anything is missing or should be omitted, please post to the mailing list expressing your concerns or ideas. I will be submitting the proposal on Tuesday, January 11th, so please review it and discuss prior to that. I want to make sure that everyone who is effected by our proposal has had the opportunity to review it, and either determine that they completely agree with it or give them the opportunity to discuss their opinions openly prior to submission. Again, the current draft of the proposal is located at: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/Lucene.Net%20Proposal And, even though I sign most of my emails 'Thanks', I'd like to take a second and express my sincere appreciation for the community we have around this project and the effort and investments that have been given and will continue to be given in the future by our contributors. The project could not survive without it. Thanks, Troy
