Hi guys,
I just modified the TLP proposal for MINA.
I added myself to the PMC and nominated Alex as PMC Chair.
Thanks for the nomination. I am flattered but I don't really want the
job of MINA PMC Chair at least not forever. However I will accept the
position as temporary PMC Chair until I can groom Trustin into the
position. This is not to say that Peter would not make an excellent PMC
Chair.
I think Trustin though is the right man for this job. Unfortunately a
proposal to the board will have a lesser chance of being accepted with a
non-member as the chair. So we cannot immediately make Trustin the
chair since he is not an ASF member. He can however be groomed into the
position by an experienced TLP chairman. I am willing to do this for
MINA with the intension of stepping down as soon as possible: after all
I must perform my duties at Directory.
So in essence I accept the position of Chairman for the MINA TLP's PMC
so long as it is temporary, and I can prepare Trustin for this position.
NOTE: This grooming technique is what is happening at Felix (Richard
Hall and Upayavira), and has already happened with the Jackrabbit
project with Roy Fielding as Chair and Jukka Chair to be.
Regards,
Alex
