+1. Josh and his cohorts have gotten a quick, unexpected introduction to the value of building a diverse community. But the code's solid and the lessons learned. Looking forward to this one. On Sat, May 26, 2012 at 7:16 AM, Steve Loughran wrote: > On 23 May 2012 19:45, Josh Wills wrote: > >>

This isn't about whether or not they will respond appropriately to new contributors once they are incubator project. And it's absolutely not whether or not I should be an initial committer (the vote's going on already and I'm happy it is). Since the team has already stumbled in its first steps, I

I'll see Jukka one and raise him one. I have advised potential podlings to be very conservative with their initial list, and keep some potential contributors in their collective back pocket. This gives them a ready-made source of community growth, which is typically the scarcest and most precious c

Marvin, I am at your disposal to collaborate on something here; note my reply at infrastructure@. It seems to me that this thread would largely go better over there, now that the caveat that 'a podling run entirely on JIRA may have community problems' has been delivered. --benson ---
