In particular I'd be sad to lose the current SVN access system, where any Jakarta committer has commit access to any other Jakarta project and general common-sense was used to govern things rather than technical/bureaucratic blocks. I thought this brought down a lot of unnecessary walls, but moving commons to a TLP will erect these walls again I presume. We want committers to apache projects that *use* commons libs to have a fairly low barrier for contributing back to commons; as currently set up any jakarta committer can just do so. However I don't feel strongly enough to vote against this proposal. But I do oppose using the name "commons.apache.org". The current jakarta commons community is exclusively Java, and that should remain so. Having multiple languages supported under one PMC will lead more oversight issues, and less community cohesion, than currently exist. If the new TLP is java-only it seems very rude to take the name "commons.apache.org" : it's far too generic. Perhaps jakarta-commons.apache.org would be appropriate.. BTW, as I don't really support this change I'm reluctant to add my name to the initial PMC list on the wiki page. However if the TLP does go ahead (and that looks likely) then I would like to be on the PMC. What's the best thing to do?
