I think there is still a lot of misunderstanding here. I think Bill's suggestion is a good one, and perhaps we should do it for CeltiXfire anyway.
I do not think there has been any piling on. We reviewed each name on the list carefully and a name only went on the list if we were convinced that the individual had either (1) contributed previously to either Celtix or Xfire or (2) expressed a genuine, specific interest in a potential contribution of value to the new project.

Or kill it now and let the proposers compile a list of individuals that have actually earned commit rights on the project. My point was that the Incubator PMC approved a proposal. Thus, if any corrections are needed prior to initial set-up, the proposal would need to be voted on again (and I suspect would attract more attention the second time). Alternatively, set it up with a real PPMC consisting of everyone on the list and let that group decide an objective criteria (within the limitations imposed by the ASF) for who should have commit access. BTW, somewhere along the line people started calling this project CXF. That is a fine name, but isn't the one in the proposal. ....Roy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
