The criteria you used for nominating people seems a bit weird to me. Release managers I understand somewhat, but contributers to the newsletter? That's like saying those that baked cookies for the last board meeting should be nominated.
Weird. Arbitrary. Rewards self-promotion, not necessarily merit. I am especially disturbed since your list of release managers is definitely incomplete. What did you use to generate this list? I distinctly remember that Morgan Delagrange served as release manager for Commons Collections last spring. He is also currently the release manager for Jelly. Selection criteria aside, I nominate Morgan for the PMC. Now that I think of it, let me just skim through the Jakarta-Announcements archive from various points last year. - Danny Angus - Peter Carlson - Morgan Delagrange - Pier Fumagalli - Ceki Gülcü - Dmitri Plotnikov - Phillip Rhodes To add to the list, I'd like to nominate these active committers: - James Strachan - Jason van Zyl - Ted Husted - Rod Waldhoff I nominate all of them. (And why not, if the PMC is to become a fairly arbitrary but huge group of permanently installed members.) One last note - please indicate your intended timeframe and deadline when you call for the vote rather than later in the thread.
