Re: Vetoes for New Committers??

The segment (see below)t in the request for graduation to the board is a remnant of an idea that is brought forward by many project in incubation. > RESOLVED, that the initial Apache NAME PMC be and hereby is > tasked with the creation of a set of bylaws intended to > encourage open development

Re: Vetoes for New Committers??

In 2015 I asked a similar quiestion in this same forum. See [1]. I may shed some light. [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/a4095177b9630643c8957e91b1e1b977b521db170767eb17eccec9f7@1426899898@%3Cdev.community.apache.org%3E Best regards, Pierre Smits ORRTIZ.COM OFBiz

Re: Vetoes for New Committers??

The downside to majority rule when it comes to personnel voting is that it can lead to a situation where a company having a majority on the pmc can increase their majority by voting in additional employees without the minority having any way to provide a check on that exercise of power. Yes thi

Re: Vetoes for New Committers??

Apache CouchDB does not allow vetos on new committer votes. You can read our policy on all vote types here: https://couchdb.apache.org/bylaws.html#types I encourage all other projects to make public a similar summary of their guidelines. This table alone has helped eliminate a LOT of confusio

Re: Vetoes for New Committers??

I asked a similar question on another list some time back, around voting in new committers. I'm not going to share that thread (public vs private) but I think the advice i got from it was spot on. In addition, I've heard great additional feedback on other threads. Projects want committers who ar

Vetoes for New Committers??

Hi, on https://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html#new-committer-process it describes the process of bringing in a new committer for a "typical project". But in the "Discussion" it speaks of "3 +1 and no vetoes"... Is it really "typical" that projects use vetoes for new committers? I can't reca

https://github.com/lucidworks/searchhub has all the crawlers/setup already setup for a number of ASF projects (email, Github, websites, wikis, Stack Overflow) and a pretty easy framework for specifying others (I looked at the FOAF stuff, but it wasn't consistent enough to automate). Lucidworks (my

Hi - I’ve got knowledge too and I also have some ideas I am thinking about. I also have some bandwidth now that I am going into job search mode. I think an important step is to think through what the taxonomy should be as that will help inform the common schema. Regards, Dave > On Mar 28, 201

Re: Using Solr/Lucene to provide our own site search?

Just to provide links: http://jirasearch.mikemccandless.com/search.py?index=jira - Lucene (not Solr) based search of issues for several projects. Very deep understanding of the domain. Adding more is probably not that hard. http://search-lucene.com/ - Solr-based, search over mailing lists, wikis, i

Re: Using Solr/Lucene to provide our own site search?

+1 I think that minimizing the requirement to run specific infrastructure, and trying to convince those already running such services I believe like Otis and Grant/others from Lucid are optimal choices. Cheers, Chris On 3/28/17, 12:19 PM, "Nick Burch" wrote: On Tue, 28 Mar 2017, Shane

Re: Using Solr/Lucene to provide our own site search?

I am an Apache Solr committer and would be happy to be part of such project. My primary focus within Solr community is onboarding, training and general beginner-orientation. I would be happy to do Solr intro course to any Apache Solr committer and contribute to this project on Solr issues such as
