The process is more or less identical to Apache. The voting starts by a committer nominating someone and the process is tracked in the portal where votes are registered and tracked. Election of committers is the domain of committers and the PMC has to approve the final vote. PMC members are usually committers. As committers vote, they are posted to the mailing list in question so people can see the progress. > And probably some others Maven folks have the same question. > > Thanks, > -- > Olivier Lamy > Talend : http://talend.com > http://twitter.com/olamy | http://linkedin.com/in/olamy > > [1] http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/technology.aether/ > [2] http://www.eclipse.org/proposals/technology.sisu/ > > > 2011/8/18 Mark Struberg <strub...@yahoo.de>: >> Jason, Brian, Benjamin or any other person involved, >> >> Before voting on this issue, I'd like to get an idea what it means for us. >> So please allow me a few questions: >> >> a.) how can appache maven committers anticipate on aether over at Eclipse? >> What if someone (like me) likes to contribute, but wants to make sure that >> his contributions are also possible to release separately under ALv2? >> >> b.) is it possible to operate aether without sisu?
