Of course, discussion is more than welcomed.

This is a concern of the project. The PMC is indeed small. More than half of
the original group has not participated in the last year and have not voiced
that they would like to continue on with the project, leaving us with the group
listed in the resolution. I do not know why these people decided not to
continue their participation, but I can assure you that the remaining members
are fully committed to continuing on with the project and we hope to recruit
future members. Graduating will be a big accomplishment for this project and
may give this project more visibility and growth.
Also, on another note, I did not give the vote a deadline. If this list wishes
to continue a vote, it will be open for 72 hours from my original email. I will
close the vote Nov 8th at noon EST.
thanks,Reza

Hi,
Should we perhaps discuss it first?
Seems a little weird to have such a small team to begin with. How have you
grown?
