Hi Rashi,

First of all welcome and thank you for your contribution.
You can contact the Apache Dubbo developers at d...@dubbo.apache.org.
I'm not part of their community but it seems they manage their website in
Github as most of the projects currently do.
You can create a ticket and pull request in the following repository [1].

Kr,
Hans

Hi Gary,

I like the name "Advisor" since to me it has no negative associations.

By the way, in reviewing project board reports, I often see projects that 
recognize and report on areas of improvement, and that would welcome having an 
Advisor try to help them.

Hi -

Thanks, Gary!

I agree. Advisors is really good. A PMC, or even a single PMC member, can ask 
for advice when they have doubts. and unsolicited advice can be ignored if not 
concise and actionable.

Dave

Re: [WG: Sharpeners] Propose: milder name

2024-02-18 Thread Gary Gregory
Hi All,

Based on 
https://github.com/rbowen/comdev-working-groups/tree/main/wg-sharpeners#readme

I read:

- volunteers who come alongside a PMC to offer an outsider's
perspective on the project, and advice to build their community.
- subscribe to the project's mailing lists and mostly listen
- do not have any authority over the PMC
- All feedback must be a polite, positive, actionable suggestion, not
merely a criticism or a "you're doing it wrong." You must suggest what
the community should do, providing links to policy or best practice
documents where applicable. Simply criticising is not welcome.

All of this sounds to me like an advisory role where advisory is
"having or consisting in the power to make recommendations but not to
take action enforcing them."[1]
So I'd go with "PMC Advisor". It's not cute or clever, it's even
bland, but I understand it, ;-)

I've never heard of someone being called a "sharpener"; I've used a
knife sharpener and a pencil sharpener ;-) ... it feels like a stretch
here.

In general, I prefer names that simply describe intent instead of
cuteness/cleverness, especially in an international context where I
find it beneficial to use words that make sense if you have to look
them up.

I'm not tied to either the name or the alliteration. I thought it was cute.
I honestly don't see the antagonistic overtones, but I'll take your word
for it.

I also don't relish the naming debate. I suppose every name has
implications for someone.

I'll defer to whatever folks want to call it. Although with all of the
caveats and objections I'm starting to wonder if anyone see the value in
this that I do.

FWIIW - to my non-native ear - Sharpeners comes across as 'so' antagonistic 
that it nearly negates the good the role could bring. Even Shapers is a bit on 
the strong side.

Helpers, Ushers, Coaching, Cleaner, Chaperon, Dragoman, Polishing, Refining, 
Assisting, Shepards,  herder, grazier, guide, usher, consierge --- happy to 
leave this to native speakers :)
