Hi everybody:
I forgot to add the link to the voting form. Sorry for the confusion caused.
You can find it at: http://xen.org/polls/governance_proposal1_2.html
For those who have voted by e-mail: I will transfer your vote to the
back-end and attach the mail you sent as proof.
You can vote again if you wish, in which case I will ignore any e-mail
on the vote that you have sent.
Regards
Lars

Dear Developers,
we have had the original Xen project governance document (see
http://xen.org/projects/governance.html
<http://www.xen.org/projects/governance.html>) in effect now since
July last year. The last minor review was in October 2011.
Since then I had feedback on two items:
a) Our governance does not specify how friction in the community is
resolved. The role definitions cover the concept of Committers and
Project leads acting as Referees, without being specific. In essence,
the proposal reflects what happens informally in practice today and
has happened in the past.
b) There also was a bug in the definition of Project Lead: "Xen.org
projects are managed by a Project Lead, who also is a maintainer"
should be "..., who also is a committer". I clarified this and added
a sentence that a project lead can also act as referee (which was
implied before as a project lead is a committer).
Please find a proposal for a new revision of the process at
http://xen.org/projects/governance_v1_2.html which fixes these two
issues. Changes are marked in italics and are in sections "Conflict
Resolution" and "Project Lead".
Timetable:
1) Open review with feedback until 11th May (a bit more than a week
from today)
2) Lars to incorporate any feedback and publish a revision.
3) Lars to set up a private poll via a form, the week of May 14th
which will be open for a week. Community members that can vote are
maintainers (including committers and maintainers)of any mature
project in Xen (aka Xen and XCP).
Best Regards
Lars
