The xml-commons group which you mentioned is basically for committers
who only have access to XML commons (mainly Norman Walsh when he still
worked on the resolver). Today XML Commons is write-accessible for
committers from various projects (Xerces, Xalan, XML Graphics, Cocoon,
Forrest etc.). But they don't use that karma very often. Yes, it
doesn't
have much of a community mainly because the various parts are mostly
"too stable". We can change that by reactivating XML Commons with new
goals.
The virtual link you mentioned is a good idea IMO and seems in line
with
Henri's ideas of a federated Commons.
Interesting. What is the XML PMC group for? As a Cocoon committer I
recall having commit privs on xml years ago. I don't believe we do
anymore though. At least, http://people.apache.org/~jim/
committers.html doesn't reflect it. I suspect there is some cocoon
stuff that really should find a home here eventually as well.
