Jeff,
I cc'd the dev@ lists, since the original proposition was made there, and the public following the discussion should know the resolution.
My comments at the end.
to Rasmus' point - maybe the group should have just said 'no' instead of trying to justify it (and not QUITE to greg's point, IMHO all emails from the apache group that declare a decision should be to a public list)..
I am generally a blind supporter of the apache group - I have a lot of respect for many members and contributors. But I am surprised by the group in this case. Jon Travis has been submitting critical patches for a few years (I believe it was one of his patches that provided MPM querying a couple of years ago). He has been involved far longer, and has far better public qualifications than many of the folks who already have commit access. To look at a this piece of code (on top of all of the apache/apr submissions over the years) and say he hasn't proven himself is a ridiculous thing to say..... is this all over the title of a proposed apachecon talk (why apache sukks)? or some other personal vendettas?
just thought that needed to be said.
