I'm going to treat this like any other nomination process and provide a brief statement.
Volunteeritis: I'm active on the CXF and Maven PMCs, and I am a bit of an uncle at Mahout and WS, and I've agreed to stick around as a PMC member on EmpireDB in transition from podling to TLP. My mentor inventory will be down to 4 after the next board meeting as far as I can tell. I leave it to all of you to judge if this is reasonable or not. Mechanics: I read my email a lot and can safely commit to being responsive to things like adding members to the PMC. Atmospherics: in spite of some of the seeming disagreement between me and Sam, as far as I can tell I agree that the way forward is for volunteers to step up put more time into reading reports and generally meta-mentoring. Once that's online we can discuss what do to about any problems that aren't solved by gentle reminders and additional reports. If elected, I will try, and perhaps fail, to focus and moderate (small, small m) discussions on general@. While the question of civility led to some disagreement, I think that there is room for some more of it, whatever it is, without treading on freedom of expression or cultural diversity. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
