Exactly the point; there were no SoC participants who did not
have mentors. If this slides into the Tomcat CVS, the mentor
will help with calling the vote, following procedures, etc.

No; I don't think anyone is asking for the SoC participants to
have live access on projects that have strong traditions of
merit-before-commit privileges. Some projects are much loser
granting commit, such projects would probably just add another
committer for the summer.

Or merging back the outcome with history.
I just wanted to point out three other things;
* it's really much easier if the sandbox is in svn:, such
users don't need accounts on a box.
* no matter if cvs or svn, the sandbox commits must
be broadcast to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
read or ignore them as you please. And please don't
complain about the outcome if you didn't feel like actually
following the progress :)
* development discussion under the tomcat umbrella should
occur on [EMAIL PROTECTED], the whole point is for the
participants to follow the day to day life of a project,
and be welcome to put forward proposals and accept feedback.
