Its still good to have some minimal diversity of the active committers
and right now it looks like Pivot only has two people actively
committing code and they're both from the same employer.
It may be worth noting that Pivot is not technically a "VMware
project". Todd and I work on Pivot on o

Yes - all me. :-) I believe they reflect my user name on the various

Ordinarily, I'd refrain from comment on a topic such as this. But I
think it's pretty unrealistic to consider any project, especially one
of Pivot's magnitude, to be practically fostered without any kind of
"leader". I don't claim authority, and I don't think that my vote

opinion? If so, how do you think such projects should be managed?

Hi all,
I've been out of the Apache loop for a while, but I have a new project I'd like
to propose for incubation. I know new Incubator projects require a champion. As
