On the other hand, I will also point out that the recent proposal for an open door policy for ASF Committers to immediately join any new podling was not widely considered a good idea. There are two pieces to electing Committers: process and policy. Process is separate from policy. We have a standard process in the ASF, and there is no reason not to apply that process in the Incubator. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
