That hypothetic "someone" will then show little knowledge about how the ASF works (we vote here!), and about what Geertjan has been doing for NetBeans during the last 10-15 years?

not the PPMC chair, that same article will end with “...and with a
non-Oracle contributor as PPMC chair, Oracle has now truly dumped NetBeans”.

So, maybe we shouldn’t focus on this concern.

I think we should focus on your willingness to be a PMC chair instead.

You've been pushing the project for a long time now, and I think we all will understand you may be wanting to step down and take a rest for a while. :-)

If you feel you have the strength to keep on bearing with us for some more time then I think we all will be honored if you keep on pushing the project forward.

Thank you, Geerjan,
Antonio


 From my perspective, I am not opposed to Kevin’s succession plan — me as
chair, with me liaising with Glenn Holmer and preparing him to take over.
Of course, this would need to be voted on, one vote thread for me now, and
in a year from now a new thread for Glenn.

Anyway, these are my personal thoughts and anyone is free to disagree or
simply start a vote thread, so that this part of our graduation to top
level project can be completed.

As Geertjan says "preferably NOT me" we should then propose Glenn.

There is no time limit for a chair term it can be more than 1 year.
If PMC or PMC chair wants changes, PMC will discuss (maybe vote) for a new
name, it should be anticipated before a board monthly meeting. (board will
accept or reject).

+1 to Geertjan AND also +1 for Glenn Holmer.  Both would be excellent
candidates.  I like Kevin's succession plan idea with respect to Geertjan
being the first chair for year one.

I believe Glenn Holmer would be a good first Chair.

I would be willing to serve in this capacity. A good description of
the responsibilities can be found here:
