Its still good to have some minimal diversity of the active committers and right now it looks like Pivot only has two people actively committing code and they're both from the same employer. Wouldn't it be possible to encourage some of the other community members to help more on the code if they're already active in other areas? That would make it easier for me to vote for graduation. ...ant --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
