I am still new to all the 'legals' side of things, and how PMC's work etc. If a sister project was unable, or unwilling to donate the code base to Apache and come under the Apache umbrella, I would still recommend that they have a role within the Logging Service PMC. Would this work? I guess I would like to see the Logging Service have a more formal relationship with the rest of the logging communtity and having them a part of the PMC seems to be right thing to do.
Regardless, I think that that a TLP will provide more benifits to the log4j project, and I do believe that we have a community to sustain it. You have my +1, sorry for the delay. cheer, Paul Smith -----Original Message----- From: Ceki Gülcü To: Log4J Developers List Sent: 12/12/03 9:34 PM Subject: Re: [PROPOSAL] Logging services top level project At 08:00 AM 12/12/2003 +1100, Paul Smith wrote: >Could I ask when would this proposal be submitted to the board?

However, we cannot force anyone to join us. We can only create a favorable environment where sister projects wishing to join Apache can do so. >I'd be inclined to withhold my vote until a feel for the reception of >the idea has been gathered from the sister projects.

No, there is no time limit although these things tend to wane if not actively pushed along. Please feel free to withhold your vote as long as you feel that your concerns have not been properly addressed. >cheers, > >Paul Smith -- Ceki Gülcü For log4j documentation consider "The complete log4j manual" ISBN: 2970036908 http://www.qos.ch/shop/products/clm_t.jsp --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
