[EMAIL PROTECTED] is yet another committee, but one with special properties; <INS>/<DEL> fledgling projects into the foundation. As such, it's sort of a committee of the whole - we need all the /willing/ members to step up and contribute as they like for us to successfully grow the ASF without steering too far off course. So yes - the iPMC voted that this be it's process w.r.t. members. Not necessarily applicable to the typical PMC, but we a the most diverse group at the foundation and have encouraged that to continue. We hope every member who is wanting to grow (or wanting to throttle the growth) of the foundation shows up here where it matters.
