To take a guess, I believe Sam is saying "if you'd like to sign onto infrastructure-dev and help to make it happen, then great." In other words, don't just make a proposal, but roll up your sleeves to make it work. Now... it sounds like you *did* roll up your sleeves and talked to TDF folks about infrastructure capability over there, but (unfortunately) that plan isn't workable. As the "suggested plan" discussion morphed towards "Git at ASF", it didn't seem you were moving towards solving (say) LDAP and Git integration :-P ... thus we end up with you and Sam talking past each other.
