[zones-discuss] Update Grants, Merge BrandZ and Zones Communities
(Credit to Alan Coopersmith and Liane-- from whom I've cribbed some of this) OGB election season is approaching again, so it's time to begin our annual review of Contributor Core Contributor grants for the Zones community. See BACKGROUND below for more background on this process. At this time I would also like to propose that we merge the BrandZ and Zones communities. These two activities are interrelated, and it's easiest if I start with the merger first. 1. PROPOSED BRANDZ COMMUNITY MERGER All contributor grants for the BrandZ community are due to expire this month. I would like to propose the merger of the BrandZ community into the Zones community at this time. This is in some ways reflective of the work done in the past two years by Jerry Jelinek to broaden the scope of the BrandZ infrastructure. Today, all zones are branded (even native ones). And the same team now owns the charter for both technologies. Having spoken to several of the core contributors of the zones community, the BrandZ community, and to an OGB member, I am at this time recommending that we utilize article 7.12 (Termination, see below) of the OpenSolaris Constitution, and allow all of the contributor grants in the BrandZ community to expire. This will terminate the community. The communities will forward to the OGB their recommendation that, under article 7.12, the BrandZ community's contents should be merged with the Zones community. We will ensure that web content related to BrandZ is not lost, and the brandz-discuss mailing list will continue on. That is to say, except for less bureaucratic overhead, everything will be the same as before. The zones community will take extend sponsorship to all projects sponsored by the BrandZ community. No specific changes to the project structure are proposed here, only a reparenting. For reference, article 7.12 states: 7.12. Termination. A Community Group is terminated by act of the OGB or by reduction of its named Core Contributors to a number less than three (3). Upon termination, the OGB may re-initiate the Community Group with a new set of Core Contributors or reassign the resources that were assigned to the Community Group, such as mailing lists, forums, and website information, to the at-large community or to some other Community Group of the OGB's choosing.

I would like to nominate myself as a Core Contributor, having implemented several zones features (labeled zones, defrouter, cross-zone FIFOs, etc.).
