For a committer who recommends another commiter it is really a formality of 3 +1s coming in as when one committer recommends another that's pretty much all it takes. > Maven-plugins committers: > +1 to separate maven-plugins committers > HOWEVER, I don't think maintenance of one plugin is enough, they need to be > interested in helping out in several areas. > I think we should move out fringe plugins, not just keep maven-core plugins. > > We should keep maven-plugins as the ones most used by our core users > (somewhat more than 10, especially considering the reports) and build a set > of developers willing to look after them. And the approach building a set of developers for the plugins? If it's akin to what has happened with Arnaud that would be an excellent thing. A track record of producing good quality patches and recognized by someone else trying to take care of that plugin. I think Vincent also mentioned Fabrizio wrt the announce plugin. This approach is fine, I think asking the general populace of users if they wish to help maintain a plugin where they have no record of having done so before is not fine. Just to be clear, I assume you're not saying this is like we're asking for applications for plugin maintainers. -- jvz.
