+1, but I'm not really sure if this is a binding vote. Assume, I'm voting as Commons committer *only*.
I'm a little confused, my understanding of the current system is: Any Jakarta Committer can simply ask for karma to the sandbox. Someone like Craig usually just makes the appropriate changes to the avail file (or so I assume), and the deal is done. So, Tapestry just navigated the Incubator, and is now a part of Jakarta. Howard is a Jakarta committer, and all he has to do is ask. That's straightforward, no PMC vote, no Commons Committer vote needed. I believe that someone just needs to give him karma - that would be in line with past practices. The confusing part comes in when someone who is not a Jakarta Committer wants access to the commons-sandbox. I think people just wanted non-Jakarta committers to have the approval of the Jakarta PMC before being granted karma. I'm not batting for that "side" per se, but the PMC maintains an oversight role for new committers (i.e. requests for new accounts come from the PMC) - the "opposition" in this case just wants the PMC to have some oversight when a non-Jakarta committer requests access. Does that make any sense? In Howard's case, he's a Tapestry committer - I don't see the need for a vote.
