You might remember that the ASF is about openess and transparency, so
what's so difficult about
writing down where you see the qualities of Bob?
You already started with one quality: Bob has been around for some time
So what other qualities do you see?
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.
this is not about Bob, but about how the Lenya community resp. the
Lenya PMC doesn't seem to be able to be transparent why a person is
being asked becoming a committer.
To Bob: Please apologize if you are being involved in this discussion
and I want to make it very clear that this discussion has nothing to do
with you or your merits.
you know as well as anyone that we don't do that out of respect for
the person under consideration.
I very well understand the reasoning why the merits of a person are
being discussed on the private PMC mailing list, but I don't understand
at all why these merits are not being communicated to the public after
the PMC seems to have found consensus why this person should be asked
and voted on to become a committer.
Can you or any other PMC member explain?
I just wanted to know what other merits than being around for some time
are there?
For instance is this person providing patches on a regular basis, is
this person being respectful and friendly, does this person help other
persons on the mailing lists, etc. Is that asked too much?
i expect more from a member of the asf, frankly.
because I am an ASF member I am asking these questions and stating my
opinion how I think this community should "operate".
I very much believe in transparency (with some exceptions), but maybe
that's my biggest problem, because most people don't like to be
questioned/critized in public. I also don't like it, but at least I try
to be frank about it.
Cheers
Michael
