Clay, a vote is there to decide on certain things. A proposal is merely a possible course of action that can be discussed. It may be concluded by a formal vote once all the details are clear. I don't know of anyone who is clearly against the creation of the XML Graphics PMC. I expect everyone who

Glen, but the fact that you're already monitoring batik-dev already shows me that you're de-facto monitoring the project. Help keep an eye on how things go on over there. You don't need write access to Batik's codebase to do that. That's all that's needed. One part of the XML Graphics proposal (at

Jeremias, I agree with you. Thomas apparently stopped working on it because of licensing issues. For all I know about Batik--next to nothing--perhaps it links with 10-15 libraries, half of which may have incompatible or out-of-date licensing. I have no clue, and I'm not motivated enough to s

Yeah, take up some tedious job and end up with even more in your rucksack. If it has to be I can do the PMC head job but I'd rather have someone else do that, like Peter, for example. You know how limited my Apache time budget is, lately. Nowadays I'm simply more an observer than anything else. As

This seems like a sound proposal to me. Batik being such an important component of the family, it is important to keep it maintained. See below for other comments... Glen Mazza said: > Everything is fine--especially adding me to the PMC > ;)--but three more proposals to add: > > 1.) Jeremias Maer

Everything is fine--especially adding me to the PMC ;)--but three more proposals to add: 1.) Jeremias Maerki added to this PMC and also made head of it. 2.) Jeremias Maerki automatically added as committer to the Batik project at (or just before) time of formation of XML Graphics. Batik has

Hi everyone, Berin thankfully pushed again and I'm taking the time for another round. Considering what I think is the general opinion, here's what I propose: 1. We create that XML Graphics PMC taking Batik and FOP under the new umbrella. I hope I don't have to explain again that nothing will chan
