Hi Arvind, Okey dok, just thought if you were going to cut down on confusion, it might make sense to *not* include general@, regardless of the guidelines :) Otherwise, some IPMC person like me might think (regardless of what you put in your email) that you are intending it as a VOTE for the IPMC.
That's why they are, guidelines, but I don't think they are perfect. Anyhoo, I'll just ignore the VOTE thread on general@, and assume that it's really for the Sqoop PPMC at this point. Cheers, Chris //notes to self, maybe I should go update those guidelines, as they don't //make sense to me, but who doesn't have the energy to do so at this point.
