things are a little confused but this is the way i see it...

infrastructure aren't really happy with people being granted access without going through the jakarta pmc. as far as what process is necessary,
that's up to the jakarta pmc. (there doesn't seem to be much enthusiasm on there for formal voting so i'll just be lazy consensus.) we don't need a vote on the commons list but someone needs post a request to the jakarta pmc.


i don't think that the [PROPOSAL] prefix was a good idea and probably the way howard did it was better (posting a personal request to the pmc).

+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.

Howard M. Lewis Ship (well known as a leading light of the recently
incubated tapestry project) would like access to the commons-sandbox
in
order to work on a new component as outlined below in the following
email:

i'd like to propose that we grant him karma.


(i know that the debate about processes is still on going but i
thought
that might as well have an example to talk about ;)
