michi, your behavior is inappropriate. if you want to hold forth on
policy, come join the PMC. publicly discussing the merits of a valued
member of our community is very immature and insensitive. you know as
well as anyone that we don't do that out of respect for the person under
consideration.
i expect more from a member of the asf, frankly.
that said i fully endorse bob as a lenya committer.
As a bystander, this vote does seem odd. Your project guidelines[1]
state that these votes take place on the private@ list to allow
open/frank discussion.
this is how we have always done it, so it is no more odd than the
previous 10 times or so.
So, is this vote for real (against your own policy) or is it just
ceremonial?
you are right, it is ceremonial, for historical reasons. we inherited
that from cocoon. and i think it is a good policy: it shows people that
we appreciate them in a ceremonial way.
FWIW, I think you guys should probably re-address your policy
independent of this particular vote.
it would be good to codify this practice, agreed.
