Ok seems everyone so far is ok with changing this, so how far can this go...

In the experiment Joe commented ...basically rolling back the clock
to May 1, 2007 on guides/ppmc.html which is this change
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/public/trunk/content/guides/ppmc.xml?r1=517024r2=542806
which added Only votes cast by Incubator PMC members are binding.
Before then podlings did their own committer votes and the Incubator
PMC weren't involved.

Good we go back to that? Why does the Incubator PMC need to be notified?

Re: Podling new committer votes

2013-07-10 Thread Joe Schaefer
It doesn't.  People were just being pedantic
and untrusting of podling participants.  Committers
have accounts, not formal standing in the org.  There
is absolutely no reason for the IPMC to inject itself
in a podling election of a new committer, so let's just
leave oversight over the voting process to the mentors.
As a matter of fact, we don't even need to document a
standard for committer promotions- projects and podlings
alike are free to experiment with whatever process they
deem appropriate. Case in point is the Subversion process,
which essentially promotes new committers through lazy
consensus alone.

IOW +1 to roll back to pre-May 1, 2007.

Subject: [VOTE] recommend Apache JSPWiki for graduating out of the
incubator

Hi all,

The Apache JSPWiki podling is a project which holds a feature-rich and
extensible WikiWiki engine, built around the standard Java EE components
Java, Servlets, and Java Server Pages.

We've been incubating for a very long time (almost 6 years); we feel we
are
ready for graduation. Since Jan 2012, we've shipped 2 releases, added 1
committer, adhered to the Apache Way in deciding technical and
non-technical issues and revamped our website. We've already done an
internal VOTE on the proposal which passed with a big majority [#1], and
we
consider the podling namesearch task as completed [#2].

Thus I'd like to ask the IPMC to VOTE on recommending the attached
graduation proposal to the board.

[+1] yes, go forward
[+0] don't care
[-1] nope, because [blocker_reason]


The VOTE is open for at least 72h


thanks  br,
juan pablo
