Well, I unerstand your concerns, but it seems odd that we engage podling to go through such a process that we haven't asked the TLP to do in the past, and not check that the TLPs at large are compliant with such a check list. > > I thought we were a community for/over code, not a bureaucracy for/over code. As a community focused foundation, I'd rather see such an exercise as a reinsurance for the larger community that are our users that we do fulfill The ASF expectations in various areas. Calling that bureaucratcy is a bit like saying the checklist every pilot is doing before take off a spurious and annoying task... > > If/when a community finds itself in a hard spot, perhaps *then* it is > valuable to assess the maturity model, to see how/what can be improved > upon. But requiring this of all projects? With a deadline too? Would'nt it be too late ? Wouldn't it be a better idea to check peridodically that no hard spot is appearing ? Fixing a community is way more difficult than anticipating potential pitfalls that can derail the process later on... But that might just be me... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
