Re: [REVIEW] draft proposal for TLP project charter and ASF board resolution

2019-06-06 Thread Matt Sicker
I'd suggest to avoid boxing ourselves in by an overly specific project
mission. Anything that helps clarify the general field this project
encompasses without being too specific about underlying technology.
You can be more specific on the website, but it's not a great idea to
get too formal in the legal documents without understanding their
ramifications. :)

Cwiki recently changed to be backed by the ASF LDAP, I suppose one is
your old cwiki user and the other is your ASF LDAP user.

Not sure how to setup a cwiki space to give access to all members of
an ASF LDAP group such as "openwhisk committers"unless someone
knows we might ask the ASF infra team.

Re: ASF policy and displaying a GitHub sponsor button on repos

Hi,

Assuming that can point to any URL I'd say making that point to
http://www.apache.org/foundation/contributing.html would be great.

Or to an OpenWhisk specific page which might also present more
project-specific options if there are any, and also points to that ASF
page.

Is that what you had in mind?
