Since when did we start inviting people into Jakarta based on their first (AFAIK) proposed - and not yet accepted - patch? Has anyone looked at the patch? I haven't seen any discussion on it, and I know that I'm not going to have time to look at it until the weekend, long after this vote will have closed, apparently. This is nothing personal against Jochen - I don't know him at all - and is not related to the fact that his contribution is for FileUpload. I'm just very concerned at how low we're setting the bar these days. I, for one, do not subscribe to the "Some of the guys over in project X think Fred is OK, so he must be OK" modus operandum. Are we really saying that we'll allow other projects to decide on who merits commit access to Jakarta? That's what Hen appears to be saying, and I object strongly. -- Martin Cooper i trust that he'll discuss any plans with the file upload team but i
think we can use his help. since this is a vote for karma, i think this can be executed a little quicker than normal. i'll tally votes not earlier than 2230 hours GMT on Thursday 25th of May. here's my +1 - robert --8<---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ ] +1 grant Jochen Wiedmann commons karma [ ] +0 [ ] -0 [ ] -1 do not grant Jochen Wiedmann commons karma ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBEc41X1TNOdbExPeIRAg+xAKCZYOGmRiIaWRm6ahZkKCRS6iVNsgCgiNSS sJe7UQU/8bO3x5HsIXLikKA= =LRFX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
