I'd be happy to be the initial chair, though I think it's also not a bad idea to rotate the position every once in a while. In my experience on other projects, having the occasional new person in the chair spot has been healthy. > 2.

That would mean dropping a few committers who were on the initial proposal but haven't shown up at the ASF, as well as a few mentors who haven't taken part in votes or discussion. Conversely, we could consider inviting a couple of folks from the IPMC who _have_ been active in release votes, if they'd like to join (eg Justin Mclean comes to mind). -Todd > Mike > > On Thu, Jun 23, 2016 at 2:20 PM, Mattmann, Chris A (3980) < > [email protected]> wrote: > > > So.. > > > > http://kudu.incubator.apache.org/ is up - check [awesome] > > 0.9.1-RC VOTE(latest of many releases, [awesome], check) > > healthy community, more dev@ discussion - check > > > > What’s left?
