Are you subscribed to the ooo-private list? Notes from subscribers, sent from the address they subscribed from, are not moderated. Notes sent from non-subscribers are forwarded to the moderators, but that should only introduce a short delay, at most a few hours. The process for voting in a new committer is described in the Podling Guide here: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html -Rob >> Another thing is that we should be focusing on removing >> copyleft components and perhaps some cleanups before >> doing enhancements.
