To clarify a little: The Pending=PPMC? status only applies to committers who were also eligible for the PPMC and have not taken the one necessary step to be established: subscription to ooo-private.
So far, this applies only to those who did establish themselves as committers but did nothing about PPMC and are silent on the matter. So there's no paperwork (e.g., an iCLA) needed or anything like that. A simple procedure the PMC can work up is addition of a time-limit on new committer and new PPMC invitations. I shall bow to the wisdom of the project on that one. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Rob Weir [mailto:robw...@apache.org] Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2012 10:05 To: ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Re: 2012-06-05 Status: PPMC and Committer Roster On Wed, Jun 6, 2012 at 12:20 PM, Dennis E.

As a TLP this scenario still repeats itself - those who are invited to be committers and/org PMC members, and in some cases they don't complete the necessary paper work to get on board. So even as a TLP we should probably have an understanding of what we do in that situation, how long we wait, etc. Of course, we don't need to decide this today. -Rob > - Dennis > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave Fisher [mailto:dave2w...@comcast.net] > Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2012 05:54 > To: ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org > Subject: Re: 2012-06-05 Status: PPMC and Committer Roster > > > On Jun 6, 2012, at 12:25 AM, Dennis E.
