Noel and I were chatting about this last night, and my position is
that I'm
okay with 'piling on' by ASF folks *if* the podling community is
happy with
that. If the podling folks do not want them on the initial list
and desire
that they earn their commit bits through actual participation, I'm
okay with
that too.
Of course.
Noel's said that being the arbitrator of who is on the list should
be the
role of the Champion and I think that's probably as good as we're
going to
get. But, by the time the Incubator PMC votes on a proposal, that
list must
be set (i.e. no deletions after the vote concludes). -- justin
The role of the Champion alone? Certainly the proposal is an
organic document that the entire podling-to-be is involved
with, so whereas the Champion has a role to play, I
don't think it's their responsibility to believe that
they know better than the community. How many champions
are truly so deeply involved in the soon-to-be-transplanted
community that they can make such decisions?
Of course, yes, the Champion does have the responsibility
to handle "piling on" cases... But if they need to do
it with a hammer, then the proposal's in bad shape
anyway.
