Hello all, This is the official vote whether to accept the Flink CDC code contribution to Apache Flink.
The current Flink CDC code, documentation, and website can be found here: code: https://github.com/ververica/flink-cdc-connectors <https://github.com/ververica/flink-cdc-connectors> docs: https://ververica.github.io/flink-cdc-connectors/ <https://ververica.github.io/flink-cdc-connectors/> This vote should capture whether the Apache Flink community is interested in accepting, maintaining, and evolving Flink CDC. Regarding my original proposal[1] in the dev mailing list, I firmly believe that this initiative aligns perfectly with Flink. For the Flink community, it represents an opportunity to bolster Flink's competitive edge in streaming data integration, fostering the robust growth and prosperity of the Apache Flink ecosystem. For the Flink CDC project, becoming a sub-project of Apache Flink means becoming an integral part of a neutral open-source community, capable of attracting a more diverse pool of contributors. All Flink CDC maintainers are dedicated to continuously contributing to achieve seamless integration with Flink. Additionally, PMC members like Jark, Qingsheng, and I are willing to infacilitate the expansion of contributors and committers to effectively maintain this new sub-project. This is a "Adoption of a new Codebase" vote as per the Flink bylaws [2]. Only PMC votes are binding. The vote will be open at least 7 days (excluding weekends), meaning until Thursday January 18 12:00 UTC, or until we achieve the 2/3rd majority. We will follow the instructions in the Flink Bylaws in the case of insufficient active binding voters: > 1. Wait until the minimum length of the voting passes. > 2. Publicly reach out via personal email to the remaining binding voters in > the voting mail thread for at least 2 attempts with at least 7 days between two attempts. > 3. If the binding voter being contacted still failed to respond after all the > attempts, the binding voter will be considered as inactive for the purpose of this particular voting. Welcome voting !
