If I had a vote, which I do not :-) I would vote for Craig just because of his support for the user community, which I am one.

You can find out more about me on the Struts "Who We Are" page: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/volunteers.html At Apache, I got involved in the Apache JServ project before there was a Jakarta (along with other long timers like Jon, Pier, and Stefano), and at the ApacheCon just after the Tomcat source code was finally handed over to Apache, told James Duncan Davidson in front of several hundred people that the Sun code sucked ;-). (Want proof? Just go back to the sources for Tomcat 3.0, but don't do this on a full stomach ;-). Over the last couple of years, I've been a big-time contributor on Tomcat (Catalina's architecture is basically what Apache JServ 2.0 was going to be), Struts (I'm the primary architect), and Commons. Along the way, I've been somewhat less involved with Taglibs and Watchdog. I'm also a pretty good chunk of Apache's "user support" on the TOMCAT-USER list. I believe in Apache's goals w.r.t. open sourcing Java. I don't have a lot of patience for diatribes and mailing list flame fests -- they tend to be counterproductive to these goals. Therefore, you'll see more CVS commits than discussion participation from me when the topic strays in those directions. (Interestingly, the overall level of CVS commits seems to be inversely proportional to the vitriol in the current discussions ...) One last note -- as most of you are probably aware, I work for Sun. If that fact, by itself, affects your vote, then you need to think about how much you really believe in Apache's credo that contributors should be judged on what they do, not who they work for. (I'm sure you can find plenty of other reasons not to vote for me, if that's what you want ;-). > > - Morgan Delagrange > Craig McClanahan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
