While I am listed as (non-core-)contributor (to the PowerPC community), my main activities ([EMAIL PROTECTED], www.martux.org and http://opensolaris.org/os/project/qemu/leaders/) don't seem to count. So I am by no means a "core contributor" - okay.
The system for choosing core contributors is notably flawed in that it only recognizes people working with Communities, not Projects or distros. (For instance, Roland wasn't initially listed because ksh93 is a Project, not a Community, and hasn't been affiliated with any Community groups, yet he's one of the biggest contributors in reality. Similarly, is your qemu project affiliated with any community? If so, ask the leaders of that community why you weren't included.) For Xorg on sparc, I didn't list you because you have not yet contributed anything to the X Community - but I was also very unsure who to list when I generated the list of Core Contributors. I'm sure once we get going on integrating your work into the X Community, you'll count as a Core Contributor for X in the future, but my understanding was Contributor status was supposed to reflect past results, not future plans. For your work on martux though, I think you would easily qualify for one of the "Contributor at Large" spots, by mailing cab-discuss to request such status. -- -Alan Coopersmith- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
