Jody Garnett reopened GEOT-3647:
--------------------------------
> Add Change Control to PMC responsibilities
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GEOT-3647
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-3647
> Project: GeoTools
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Reporter: Jody Garnett
> Assignee: Ben Caradoc-Davies
> Fix For: 8.0-M1
>
>
> Here is an amusing oversight - the developers guide never got around to
> updating the PMC responsibilities to reflect:
> a) us joining the osgeo foundation; or
> b) pmc members being responsible for voting on change management procedure
> (ie proposals)
> c) administration email list and jira "component" to track administration
> "issues"
> Ben I am going to submit some text to clarify these points. Since it is just
> clarification and not any change of policy I think that just asking another
> PMC to review will be sufficient.

> Project Management Committee
> ============================
> Members of the community who have an interest in the greater direction of the
> project may have their
> status promoted to that of a Project Management Committee Member. This
> committee is the official
> managing body of the Project and is responsible for setting overall project
> direction.
> .. sidebar:: Recommended
>
> We encourage downstream projects to seek representation on the PMC in
> order to communicate
> and protect the interests of your development community with respect to
> strategic direction.
> The PMC makes all decisions that cannot be resolved by module maintainers.
> The PMC strives to make
> as few technical decisions as possible, preferring to leave technical
> decisions to module
> maintainers and a general consensus process.
> The GeoTools Project Management Committee
> -----------------------------------------
> The GeoTools PMC is the formal "Project Steering Committee" that reports to
> the board of the Open
> Source Geospatial Foundation on behalf of the library.

> Open Source Geospatial Foundation:
