Hi Niclas,

There is one issue that still bothers me about your proposed ways of
voting. At some point, the nominee has to be asked, and accept, to
become a committer. This would have to be after the private votes are
done and before the public vote. So after the nominee accepts, they
suddenly see a [vote] thread regarding their candidacy on the dev
list and wonder what *that* is about.

I think a public "welcome to the new committer" would be sufficient
"feel good" instead of the phony public vote.

I don't know all the communities around ASF, but what I have seen is that the "acceptance"/"decline" happens after the public vote. Entries to PMCs seems more like "private vote" -> accept/decline -> "welcome" in the communities I know of.

Mind you, my own opinion in the matter differs from how things are done, for instance; IMHO either the vote is public OR private, and if the latter then don't have the charade on the public list. That would simplify things at Incubator as well.
