I don't see a reasonable alternative structure. Feel free to propose one. I explored the idea of having subcommittees make these releases. That would /still/ mean having the board acknowledge those who are doing the voting, or making a rather complex structure of the board conveying the responsibility for granting code review/approval karma to another body. It all falls back on the board. Right now, we are running two boards, one over incubating efforts and one over 'mature' projects; one is empowering projects and the other emasculating them. This is really quite silly and seems we aught to quit it already. My interest goes beyond any of those topics, though. Incubator is very tedious. Very little is resolved. Deck chairs are shuffled. But at the end of the day, projects don't have ownership of their code, many micro-managers do, we aren't necessarily creating better projects than Chris's proposed structure, and the entire process and participation is simply not enjoyable (except to the sadists or masochists). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
