Nobody says it does. At least not long term. If the board feels like they can handle the load themselves -- there's no need for the side of the committee that acts that way. However, it feels like a safer bet to try and have it first and then see if the load is light enough so that the board can act directly 100%. Btw, board *does* act directly even today (case in point the thread started by Rich). > In what ways could this committee substitute its judgement for PMC of the > TLP? Just as the board's job is to tell PMC when something's going wrong ditto with the committee. > How would one apply to be on this committee? Would this be a case of some > members being more member than others? I see it same way as ComDev (or any other ground like that). There's a voting process, you get nominated and accepted. The only qualification is that you *have* to be an ASF member. > What would be the process and expectations for resolving disagreements > between the TLP and this committee? Again, since the comittee is just acting as a 'clerk' for the board, the process is still the same as what we have today between the board and the TLPs.
