Hi Guys, I'm fully behind this proposal and plan to support it with what limited cycles I have. Note to Hoss: since you're an ASF member, you can become an Incubator PMC member automatically by sending an email to priv...@incubator and asking Noel to add you to the Incubator PMC.

Sorry, : I won't sign up as mentor, but there sure should be some from the : Lucene community.... riiiighhhht? As noted in the proposal, Chris Mattmann (a former Lucene PMC member, and current Incubator PMC Member) has volunteered to be a Mentor. I am certainly planning to be "mentor" for Lucy, and I am also willing to be a "Mentor" but (a) I am not a member of the Incubator PMC, and (b) I have no experience mentoring a Podling. While 'a' may be solvable by just holding a vote to make me a PMC Member, 'b' is my primary concern: We're really hoping we can find a couple of engaged "Mentors" who have previous experience mentoring Podlings. Speaking for myself: I have not personally pushed very hard to try and get other capital M Mentors from the Lucene community because I am mildly concerned about Lucy leaning/drawing too heavily on mentorship from the Lucene community. Part of the motivation for moving to the Incubator is to try and get broarder guidance & participation to help Lucy stand on it's own two feet as a TLP. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Chris Mattmann, Ph.D. Senior Computer Scientist NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Pasadena, CA 91109 USA Office: 171-266B, Mailstop: 171-246 Email: chris.mattm...@jpl.nasa.gov WWW: http://sunset.usc.edu/~mattmann/ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Adjunct Assistant Professor, Computer Science Department University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089 USA ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
