Hi Benson, I saw your later email(s) and Incubator board report. It's fine and I think the message of my objection comes across. So thanks for that.
One thing I wanted to comment on: On 2/13/13 4:10 AM, "Benson Margulies" <bimargul...@gmail.com> wrote: >Chris, > >The obvious compromise is to ask them to report the vote result as it >happened, it seems to me, -1's and all.

There's no board resolution needed for a Hive committer >to type 'svn cp' on the hcatalog tree, Not by my counts. There's a *community* resolution and a recommendation to be made by the IPMC, nonetheless. Otherwise, the IPMC is pretty useless IMO, and more importantly, so is the Incubator. Why bother even incubating HCatalog? Hive could have simply svn cp'ed whatever code came in, or whatever code the podling arrived at, and Incubation would have stopped then. But we both know that's not the way it works. Even if a podling graduates to an existing TLP, go check out the past resolutions. You'll note there's a section in there that discharges the responsibility of the IPMC for the podling. So, yes, the IPMC *is* involved. And yes, the IPMC vote matters.
