a) we are responsible for producing a certified J2EE server as well as other software et al that we deem related to that goal
b) cooperation with other open source groups working on projects that we deem related to our goals is something we will actively pursue and support
Anything else to add?
It appears to be common practice that the PMC is tasked by the board with producing it's own bylaws *after* resolution of status by the board (after we're in business as a TLP...), so that's been added at the end, and if people think that's going to fly, that reduces the load this week before wed.
Also, we need to produce the names of one or more individuals to be PMC chair to send to the board.
Please review the list of initial PMC members to be sure that I didn't leave anyone out, or include anyone who doesn't wish to be included.
