Sigh. I also created a wiki page for recording votes (http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/VoteResults). This page hangs off the top Derby wiki page. I can see that it's an unclean innovation because it lets non-committers fake vote results. However, the wiki page has two advantages over the STATUS page:

1) It makes votes visible on the web site.

2) It empowers non-commiters like me to record results for votes which we call.

Could we at least promote vote results to somewhere on the website? If that's controversial, could the web site at least tell people where to find vote results?

Thanks,

Can you explain how the STATUS gets modified?

It's a text file. You'll find it in the root of the code tree.
Committers can just edit it and check it in. :-)

Anyone can update STATUS, though, by posting a patch to derby-dev. The
latest STATUS is viewable on the web for all to see via svn's web
interface:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/db/derby/code/trunk/STATUS
