The idea of getting this code out to the public hasn't been broadly discussed yet. It will be pretty obvious as a TLP :-) I'll be doing the work to extract the Apache Steve code from the private repository and get it into the public one. I'll look to see who we're missing (eg. Roy). > Seems a > shame to change the code to be read-only to so many who've already worked > on it in the past.

I strongly believe most PMCs are too rigid with commit access. And the communities that do RTC via Jira... ridiculous with access. There is no way a person can screw up the project in RTC, yet they withhold access, and cite all kinds of reasons for doing so. In reality, they are simply excuses for *exclusionary* behavior. I have yet to see a valid reason from those communities, but I have little recourse to get them to fix their behavior. So Ant: you wanna be on the PMC or have commit? :-) Cheers, -g
