As we'd have periodic elections, is this really that important?

I do have a personal opinion on the condition "if ant will have sub-projects" and that is that we should avoid it for everything that is not really closely related to Ant. To me Gump would be out of scope, far out of scope. With that "closely related" in mind, in my vision - that I certainly cannot and do not want to enforce - there would only be a single community. > - should we host an 'open sub-project' - open to jakarta and apache > committers - for contributed tasks ? Possible, not sure. If a task is closely related to a different project it should go with that project IMHO. Do we need another commons project? > - should we have a sandbox ( like jakarta-commons-sandbox ) for > ant-specific work ? Technically we already have so inside the jakarta-ant module, open to all Ant committers. Do you envision something else here? > I would be very unhappy if we make the move without discussing all > the details ( before !). I'm not sure I follow you here. How would the question whether Ant had a sandbox affect your vote on the resolution?
