Hello, I count as a straggler I believe. I am/was a Sandesha2 committer. Please upgrade me.

All Axis committers will also be PMC members. The reasoning here is that if we trust you enough to change the code, you should get a binding vote for important decisions. 2. All VOTEs for committership will take place on the private PMC list. This is analogous to the way members are elected. The idea is to avoid any bad feelings if a given vote doesn't succeed for whatever reason. 3. If a VOTE for a new committer/PMC member passes, we'll invite that person privately, and once they accept we'll announce to the appropriate dev list and gene...@. Now... there have been a few people that were WS committers that apparently didn't notice the PMC switchover happening, so we also decided the following: If you were a committer on the Web Services project and you missed the chance to move over as an Axis committer, you now have a chance to rectify this. Please send a note to general@axis.apache.org and let us know WITHIN THE NEXT TWO DAYS. On Wednesday, we'll kick off a batch VOTE for all the stragglers at once, and we should be able to get your commit perms back by the weekend. (Nikil, this doesn't apply to you as you're already all set for committership, although we will have to VOTE you into the PMC since this policy wasn't yet agreed when we did your VOTE last week) Thanks, --Glen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@axis.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@axis.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@axis.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@axis.apache.org
