Re: ZooKeeper community
Have you guys setup a zookeeper-private list for the zookeeper ppmc + hadoop pmc to have private discussions? If not, I highly recommend it since it would be the only practical viecel for the ppmc to nominate new commiters or raise sensitive issues the the pmc.

Ok good... as long as the PMC folks are participating it should not be a problem.

> > Are all you guys also PMC members on Hadoop? > Never mind.. I just looked it up in the asf-authorization file. hadoop-zookeeper=akornev,breed,fpj,mahadev,phunt hadoop-pmc=ab,cutting,dhruba,enis,jimk,nigel,omalley,stack,taton,tomwhite looks like you guys are not in the PMC. Sorry about that. But it bring us a weird governance issue which is very anti Apahe.. usually an Apache project is self governed, but from the look of the authorization file, it seems like the zookeeper committers cannot properly self govern. It makes things like doing releases, adding new committers and pmc members much more complex since the PMC members are not actively working on the project. Is this being addressed?

Yeah.. wish it would have been that easy when we tried to being in ActiveMQ from Codehaus as sub-project of Geronimo since it was THE JMS implementation shipping with Geronimo. I guess the big difference was you guys did a code grant, while the ActiveMQ stuff had to have it's ip checked. Count your blessings.

Re: ZooKeeper community
We are fully aware of that Hiram. We are still a sub project of Hadoop and have been on sourceforge for a while. For being a sub project the Hadoop PMC needs to vote for it. Zookeeper is in the future roadmap of Hadoop for High Availability/ configuration management and mounting of different filesystems. So that's why were able to get in as a subproject of Hadoop. We are trying to build a community of diverse committers and developers and its just the start :). Hope you guys can help :).

Hiram Chirino wrote: So all the commiters are Yahoo folks? Yes, so far. Hadoop's PMC oversees Zookeeper, and it's not all Y!. http://hadoop.apache.org/who.html Zookeeper hasn't yet been at Apache long. We hope to soon add non-Y! committers to Zookeeper, and are on the watch for folks with a good contribution record. http://tinyurl.com/6q8rv8 Doug
