Since that time, how many AOO project blog posts have you promoted on the Google+ page? How many times have you mentioned progress in the AOO 3.4 release? How many times did you mention that the RC was ready for testing? Where did you mention that the support forums were now hosted by Apache? Where did you do anything? These things should not require that I "send a notification" to you. This is brain-dead obvious. A social networking site for the project should be talking about the progress of the project. This should not require prodding from the PPMC for it to happen. It should just happen naturally by anyone who is acting in the best interests of the PPMC. Of course, if you are just hoarding then you will snap up these accounts and sit on them with zero activity in 6 months. In any case, the past is past. I don't care what you've done before. It is clear that you've done nothing in 6 months with that account, whereas I've integrated the new account into the project, and I've done this in a transparent, inclusive manner. I'll assume that this is not just a control issue for you and that you'll be happy to post a message in your unused and untouched Google+ page and direct those followers over to the new one. In return, and to demonstrate that this is not about control on my part, I'm happy to listen to any proposal you might have regarding open PPMC access to the Twitter account. And if you make your Twitter account just as openly available to PPMC members as I've done with the new one, then I'll be happy to notify followers of the new Twitter account that they should follow the one that you turn over to PPMC control. Fair enough? This is not about personal control. It is about putting social networking accounts that use ASF trademarks under ASF custody. -Rob >> >> -Rob >> >> >>>> -Rob >>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> As I said before, hoarding is a losing strategy at Apache.
