The proposal looks pretty good to me. Well thought out. I do have an operational question about the three people given the role of "Initial Committers / PMC"
Do Zoltan, Rory, and Ricardo each have the skills and time to necessary to both complete the migration of the Fora that was begun by TerryE and then maintain the service? Are they all able to be "SysAdmins." My concern is if there is only one person in the full "SysAdmin" role we will have a support problem.
