In my view there is no need for a vote. This is not covered on the Incubation_Policy page as far as I can tell. If memory serves correctly, when we adopted the practice of relying on social enforcement rather than technical enforcement of commit privileges, it was spurred in part by infrastructure simplification: avoiding maintenance of per-podling Subversion ACLs. That the practice we adopted didn't cause problems demonstrates that relying on social enforcement (and commit email monitoring) suffices, so the arguments that won the day back then were sound. But just because we didn't need ACLs doesn't mean that we absolutely must not have them. Today, we have a different infrastructure concern: it's simpler to divide up commit privileges than to unify them. Sure -- I don't see a problem with that. +1 to go ahead and collaborate with infra to make it happen.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache ODF Toolkit 0.6.2 (incubating)
Hi, +1 (binding) but there a number f things that IMO need to be fixed for the next release. I checked the source release: - incubating in name - signatures and hashes correct - contains disclaimer - LICENSE has some minor issues - NOTICE has a few unnecessary copyright statements - No unexpected binary files - Source files have Apache header, but seem a large number of copyright IMB and Oracle not ASF - Can compile from source LICENSE seems to be missing one thing, a BSD licensed software copyright 2009 University of Bristol. [1][2][3][4] Confusingly these files have different copyright and licenses at the start and end of the files. May be an interesting story there :-) Perhaps also add this ASF file copyright 2009 Benson I. Margulies. Not an issue (as ASL files don’t have to mentioned in LICENSE) but it’s odd the copyright is different to other similar files copyright Oracle. The LICENSE in the source package mention thing that are only included in the binary package, IMO it would be better to two two seperate LICENSE files with different content that reflect what the bundles contain. [8][9][10] These files have copyright ASF year lines which should probably be removed. See point 2 in [7] With the NOTICE file there no need to list all copyright statements only ones that have been relocated from files need to be included. I can also see there a large number of ASL files copyright IBM and Oracle and the headers haven’t been changed so there’s probably no need to list that in NOTICE either. But perhaps if there files were in a software grant then possibly their headers needed to be replaced? The binary and doc packages are missing LICENSE and NOTICE files, they are included in included in the jars however but it's just the boilerplate license and doesn’t mention what other things might be bundled.
