Hi All,
I am a netbeans user that has been following this thread since the proposal was announced and I am a little fascinated with this whole process, it seems rather interesting... Although this initial committer list seems to be a sticking point, but from reading this page: https://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#committers I'm not sure why it is... I have contributed defect fixes for JClouds in the past, and from what I see on this project is that there's an GitHub repo that allows people to contribute PR's, but theres also a ASF repo, which the contributors actually merge in the PRs from GitHub into the "hidden" ASF repo... Is this how every ASF project runs? and is this how Apache Netbeans would run? Because if so, do you want to give a wide list of committers initially? I would have thought it would make sense to keep the number to a group of trusted people that Netbeans/GJ trust up front to commit PRs into the main repo, and to make short term decisions. Then if a developer/contributor shows themselves to be a useful part of the community then you can quickly vote to change their status... Anyways I'm going to go back to lurking in the background...
