Ok, whilst sitting in the dentist's waiting room I was able to read these. FWIIW: I can now attest that reading bylaws is more fun than having root canal work. I won't say how much. ;-) I agree we have a bit of an issue with the committers (and 'active committers'). Paragraph 2 of 3.2.3 says all Apache committers are Gump committers, so I think this makes paragraph 3 obsolete. That, unless we explicitly state this is for Apache newbies (like me ;-). The voting section does refer to active committers -- a term we've not defined (but I might like to see defined). Something tells me we ought allow all (as equal), but respect those who do (as more equal ;-), so 'active committer' is perhaps anybody who has commit in the last 6 months (to metadata or code). The only reason I raise this is that 'active committers' can have binding vetoes, and I can see that a voting deadlock could occur. I don't see any way for the PMC to break a deadlock, other than remove committer rights, which seem lousy brute force. That all said ... what the heck ... I really don't want to get all lawyer-ish on this. Perhaps we just deal with things if they ever occur. FWIIW: I'd probably prefer to vote on folk on the PMC list, but I'm open to either. regards, Adam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
