Joe Darcy proposed the JDK 6 Project on 14 December [1]. Kelly O'Hair called for the Build Group to vote on sponsoring this Project on 7 January [2], and in due course that vote passed [3].
The interim governance rules [4] require that a Group vote to sponsor a proposed Project within 14 days, so strictly speaking this vote was invalid. (I'm sure this was an innocent mistake on Kelly's part, most likely related to Sun's week-long break over the holidays.) Rather than ask Joe to resubmit the JDK 6 Project Proposal, I hereby request the Interim Governance Board to recognize the Build Group's sponsorship vote as valid despite its tardiness.
