There is the missing nuance that must be addressed (see below), but with that fixed, I'm +1. > On Tue, Jun 3, 2008 at 10:29 PM, Justin Erenkrantz > > Currently on http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html, we have: > > --- > > Vote on the podling's private (PPMC) list, with notice posted to the > > Incubator private list.

The standard rules still apply, and the PMC vote would be required to supplement the vote, not just a lazy ratification. Proposed change to Justin's text would be "After 72 hours and no requests by any Incubator PMC member for a full vote by the Incubator PMC, and if the vote is positive (three or more binding +1 votes and no binding -1 votes), the committer request is approved by the Incubator PMC and the PPMC can start the committer invitation process." --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
