I made a mistake and started a private thread.. Sorry! Back and forth between Kevin and myself below:
-----Original Message----- From: kevin hammond [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 4:05 PM To: Boutcher, James K. Subject: RE: I will be unavailble until end of February... James, I would like to have a vote for giving James Boutcher committer status. I have seen his code and it looks good. My vote (Kevin): +1. Since both Mike and I are unavailable, it is critical that we get another committer (as well as a Release Manager). James has submitted patches but committers (including myself) have been unable to find the time to check in and test the patches. Sorry about that. My absense is for good (personal) reasons. I will be back at the end of February. Unfortunate, but necessary. Thanks, Kevin Hammond --- "Boutcher, James K." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hopefully this is a good thing!
