To me this is a common flaw in both how the IPMC operates today and how Greg's proposal relies on 3 Members to get anything accomplished. If you've been paying attention to what actually happens in this PMC over time, you can't possibly have missed all the begging for votes that goes on. Reliance on 3 overworked people who are typically not podling committers to always be there when the project needs them is both unrealistic and doesn't scale. We've been doing it for years, inflicting massive pain on the podlings whenever they release or want new committers, and it sucks. That's what my experiment aims to fix. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
