There is no need to create a local PMC description RDF file. Most TLPs use the ones at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/projects.apache.org/trunk/data/committees/ If yours does not exist yet, just create it and add it to committees.xml There is a template for this purpose: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/projects.apache.org/trunk/data/committees/_template.rdf > Perhaps if you use these as templates, it helps get the files up and running. > > The main reason we chose to maintain these files in our project, is that I > have seen quite a lot of projects without maintained RDF files, because they > are so invisible to most of the folks … if for example you have a look at the > Flex ref file [7], it still mentions Alex as chair, which isn’t the case > anymore for more than 2 years now. To avoid duplication and staleness of data, it's best not to use the PMC RDF files for anything but the minimum, i.e. id, name and charter > Our hope is by managing these resources as part of the normal project, they > get a little more visibility and awareness.
