I would hope that we would think *very* carefully before following the same or similar procedures as these projects. These are all "umbrella" projects, and the first two, at least, have clearly demonstrated the problems with such projects. (I haven't tracked the Incubator closely enough to know whether or not it has had the same issues.) The last thing I want to see is Struts becoming another umbrella project. -- Martin Cooper > * A Struts subproject is created in response to a proposal to the > DEV list. > > * The proposal must be made by a Struts Committer and name two > other Struts Committers who are willing to support the subproject. > > * At least one of the three Committers must also be a Struts PMC member. > > * The proposal is subject to a consensus vote, like any other > product change. > > (A consensus vote is subject to a binding veto.
