Still seems recursive to me, see below.

Take a look below at the update and see what you think... I believe I
have fixed
the recursion you noted.

Checking with our mentors it seems that it is needed. any particular
reason why you
believe otherwise or just asking to be sure?
Because of the comment above:
"Specifically, the paragraph on establishing bylaws isn't applicable,"
Happy to remove it -- any of our mentors want to comment? Some board
reports have it
some do not. For example the latest Synapse resolution does not.
Updated resolution:
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors deems it to be in the best
interests of the Foundation and consistent with the
Foundation's purpose to establish a Project Management
Committee charged with the creation and maintenance
of open-source software related to distributed messaging,
for distribution at no charge to the public.
May need to mention AMQP in the above paragraph.
looking at some of the recent resolutions, they separated definition of
the term used
in the first paragraph to the third to avoid recursion... Based on
comments I think it
is cleaner to not try to expand the definition in two places.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Project Management
Committee (PMC), to be known as the "Apache Qpid Project",
be and hereby is established pursuant to Bylaws of the
Foundation; and be it further
RESOLVED, that the Apache Qpid Project be and hereby is
responsible for the creation and maintenance of software
related to the distributed messaging; a multiple language
the distributed messaging => distributed messaging

How is this "distributed messaging" different from ActiveMQ?
Is it just because it is based on AMQP?
yes, it is based on AMQP, provides native support for clients in
multiple languages and focuses
less on JMS as design center, rather AMQP and provides JMS as a client
API if required.
Much like Ant, Maven and Builder, all build systems but the way they do
it is quite different.
