This sounds like a great solution for this community. It also sounds like there will be plenty of details to work out with the infra team to ensure all the normal ASF git tooling still works seamlessly, both for users as well as for our core infrastructure (like backups, email commit hooks, etc.) One minor change: the appropriate people in the ASF Infra team need to have owner permissions for the repo, along with someone from the PMC. That is, the ASF *as an organization* needs to have owner permissions both for maintenance and brand ownership, and the infra team is the group who handles that for the ASF (the board delegates operations to the President, who delegates server and repo maintenance to the infra team members). Make sense? Good luck! - Shane
