Yes, HTTP Server Project / APR Project folks often feel that it is improper, it seems. (I am not a HTTPD guy ;-) I've heard such opinions on other lists before. Well, I think it that vote jakartan-way (to vote new committers in) is reasonable as well as the way other (single projects -- which do not have many subprojects under their umbrella) projects had chosen is. Only one concern. Maybe Jakarta has many *zombie* committers. I hope current (jakartan) voting rule hadn't affected to the *inflated zombies* phenomena. To eliminate *zombie* committers would be one of the critical issues for Jakarta PMC, I imagine. (This is also board members' concern, I imagine) Anyways, I think Jakarta can have Jakartan-Way. Good luck, folks. (And thanks) Sincerely, -- Tetsuya.
