Thanks All. Sounds like we're in agreement. Will update our docs and begin

I can't think of any reason why the 72-hour wait needs to be conditined.

Agree to drop the 72 hour wait, as once the signed NDA is on file there
should be no further delays required.

[DISCUSS] Policy for granting access to Geronimo TCK materials

2010-08-11 Thread Kevan Miller
All,
Our policy for granting access to the Geronimo TCK test harness is described 
here -- 
https://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxPMGT/geronimo-project-policies.html#GeronimoProjectPolicies-AccesstoTCK

The policy describes a 72 hour waiting period when granting non-Geronimo 
committers read-only access to our TCK test harness. This period was intended 
to allow the Geronimo PMC time to provide oversight on these requests. 
Presumably, a PMC member could block someone's request (though this has never 
occurred and I can't, frankly, imagine a case where we would block someone's 
request). If we had our preference, our TCK test harness would not be in a 
private svn. It would instead be publicly readable by all.

I would like to remove the 72 hour waiting period from our policy. If an ASF 
committer requests access to our test harness, I believe we should grant this 
access immediately.

The 72 hour waiting period might have been more meaningful when the Geronimo 
project maintained and distributed the Sun (now Oracle) TCK. As a reminder, 
these materials are obtained via an agreement between the ASF and Sun/Oracle. 
To gain access to these materials, an ASF committer must sign an NDA. We still 
maintain/distribute the Sun/Oracle TCK for Java EE 5. However, the JCP project 
is maintaining the newer TCK materials. The JCP does not have a waiting period 
for granting access to the JCP maintained TCK materials.

Comments? Objections? If I don't hear any objections, I'll plan on updating our 
policy and removing the 72 hour window...
