  You mean before the vote, after the vote, before results are

  the request of the creation of an account enough?
 
 I mean that if you are having a vote, just let the rest of the PMC know
 about it.  We don't vote in dark corners (discussing potential committers in
 private so as to avoid embarrassment and facilitate honest discussion,
 aside).  The PMC is collectively responsible for all projects under
 Incubation, and ought to be kept aware of what is happening.  Do you have a
 concern about that?

Not at all! From your e-mail it sounded to me as if you had
something more specific in mind (and frankly, it seems that incubating
projects on a whole haven't been all to good at bubbling up enough info
so I could imagine the need), I just wanted to make sure.

  with harmony we seem to have consistently had enough incubator
  PMC members active on the PPMC list to get enough binding +1s
 
 That's fine snip/

Ok, then we're pretty much on the same page already after all :-)

ciao!

Henri had pinged me last night on IRC, and had a few questions based on some
e-mails he'd seen involving a few of our project's trying to understand how
to handle new committers.  He, I, Upayavira, and a few others, discussed it
a bit.  Since e-mail is the official medium for the ASF, not IRC, it was
appropriate to post an e-mail for everyone, and that's what we've been
discussing here this morning.  :-)

Perhaps true, but I wasn't addressing anything specific, other than Henri's
questions.  :-)

Darn, don't you just hate it when that happens?  :-D
