That all sounds good Ted, thanks for writing this! Just to be clear,
*anyone* can write such a proposal and call for a vote, it doesn't have
to be a committer or PMC member, correct? I understand only those
people can cast binding votes (which would be ironic: the proposal
writer couldn't cast a binding vote for their own proposal!), but anyone
can make such a proposal, correct? If that is so, would it make sense
to announce it on the @user list as well, so that as many non-binding
votes could be cast as there is interest?
It is correct that anyone can make such a proposal. It is also correct to
recognize that existing committers represent the only binding votes on
technical matters like "what should Struts 2.x look like" -- PMC-member
votes are required only fo releases. That means, at the moment, that you
have 22 people to lobby.
Feel free to announce whatever you want wherever you want. Any formal vote,
however, would be called on the Struts Developer list (and must be called by
an existing committer to be relevant, so you'd better plan on recruiting at
least one committer to make the formal proposal in the first place).
Thanks again Ted, assuming anyone can make such a proposal, I think this
is an excellent post and I for one very much appreciate it!
