Hello Patrick, and also Reynold and Jaques as they have made similar requests on other threads... It's great to have you and we all look forward to your participating in incubation projects in a new capacity! It's the standard procedure for adding a PMC member from here on out: the Incubator's PMC Chair sends a NOTICE to the Board, we wait for 72 hours to ensure that no Board member objects to the addition, then the Chair finishes the clerical work. From the standpoint of the corporation, you officially become PMC members (with valid voting privileges, etc.) when committee-info.txt is updated. http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#newpmc The only difference in the process for the Incubator is that while non-ASF-Member candidates for the IPMC must be voted on as with all other PMCs, ASF Members may sidestep the vote. Member requests usually go to the private list because that's where personnel changes are traditionally discussed at Apache and there is a (very) remote possibility that the Board might reject a candidate. But of course it's fine to receive your requests on general@incubator. Finally, lest this explanation sow confusion with regards to adding new *PPMC* members, the process is slightly different -- the IPMC gets notified instead of the Board. http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html#Voting+in+a+new+PPMC+member Good luck and let us know if you have questions!
