This does not mean that it would only be possible under any "governance-umbrella", but I also understand that Karaf is the main consumer and/or driver of current development.

Thus I'm not completely against it (and would not have any obligations to give any organization the required permission for any contribution I have made to pax projects), my only fear is that this process will even be going further so things are getting more and more "karaf-like" and other requirements are not taken into account anymore.

So whatever is decided, I have really enjoyed all the years even though contributions from my side are not always constant over time it was the entry-point for me to getting started with OpenSource contributions.

That's true, but I think that's also a drawback.

The leak of governance and the fact we don't have any staging on releases could be seen as an issue.

That's why it could be interesting to have this under the "Karaf Umbrella".

    I always enjoyed the ease of contribution via github with minimal
    effort. While for apache-projects has always felt like a mess
    because of
    different hurdles.

    So I would defiantly vote for staying with github, dropping JIRA in
    favour of github issues (they improved the issue/project handling a
    lot)
    to centralize development to one place.

    Github even offers building "Actions" now so maybe this is also an
    alternative for custom build-server.
