Hi, In light of Chris's resignation and request, I would like to propose that we bring our plans to evolve the project to the TSC sooner, rather than later, and get TSC guidance on a number of key questions related to Dovetail, which is not like other projects because of its relationship to the CVP:
* Should we allow multiple committers from a single vendor? * How should we handle the expansion of the committers during the restructuring of the Dovetail project? I do not believe that another project has considered, as we have recently, an addition of many new committers to a project, nor is there another project so directly related to a board committee. I think it will be useful and necessary for us to get TSC guidance on any changes to the project - and with Chris stepping down, I think we should get this guidance before extending invitations to new committer candidates. Thanks, Dave.
