Re: [DISCUSS] Solicitation for IPMC Chair nomination
Last call for [self-]nominations! It has been a week since the original email and I'd like to keep the thread going for a day or two and then start the official vote so we wrap it up in time for this months board resolution. Thanks, Roman.

Re: [DISCUSS] Solicitation for IPMC Chair nomination
Thanks for the nomination, Roman. And thanks for support from Seshu and Luke. I am trying my best to help projects coming to Apache incubator to understand the Apache way and be prepared to be active and healthy top level project. However, after working with Ted in several podlings, I would love to throw my VOTE for him, if he accept the nominations. Like Marvin said in his reply, Ted is politically adept and have a lot of experience to handle the challenges of interfacing with the Board and with outside organizations, which very crucial for working in VP of incubator. - Henry On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 10:45 AM, Roman Shaposhnik r...@apache.org wrote: Hi! after making sure that there's still an Incubator to be managed for the next 6-12 months, I'd like to open up a discussion thread on soliciting nominations for the next IPMC Chair.

Re: [DISCUSS] Solicitation for IPMC Chair nomination
Thanks to the Kylin guys for their support. And to Marvin. And Roman. I have spent a lot of time considering and have decided that I will accept this nomination. The source of my reticence is that if I take on this responsibility, I will have to become part of the missing-mentor problem and pull back from some of the mentorship work that I am doing. My feeling is that this won't be a huge problem. In all of the projects I am helping now, there are other active mentors and most of the projects are maturing rapidly (like Calcite) or have graduated (like Flink). Henry is on some of the new projects and Roman is on another so they all seem to be in good hands. So, I would be happy and enthusiastic to help by working with the Incubator project in this role.

Re: [DISCUSS] Solicitation for IPMC Chair nomination
+1 for Ted Dunning and Henry Saputra They both are very actively helping Kylin incubating from the beginning. Their passion, professional and experience brings great value for our incubator project. With their very nice coach, all of us gained a lot of from them, especially about run open source community which is more important than coding itself.
