Just my 0.02p on that one.
I'm upset and worried that OpenSolaris project creation has gone downhill
and become process-encumbered. That means especially that one needs to ask
god and the world for approval of project creation.
Keith, I suggest you try looking at sourceforge.net and create a project
there.
* Do you need to ask anyone (one or more people) whether you can ?
* Do you even need an email ?
* Is it a manual procedure to find out which projects you are
affiliated with, and which you are contributing to ?
* How difficult is it to get mailing lists, bug tracking services,
or webspace for your project ?
And _then_ tell me again how it works on opensolaris.org is just fine and
should be done the way it is (now).

Fwiw, strictly speaking, there is no UFS group anymore as UFS is
in sustaining mode.
The source of funding for UFS within Sun is irrelevant; I was
referring here to the UFS Community Group that's part of OpenSolaris.
This Community Group has a single "leader" (which should really be
called "web page editor") and has made no Core Contributor Grants
according to poll.opensolaris.org. Therefore the Community Group
cannot possibly have voted (using lazy approval, consensus, or any
other method) to approve this project proposal. And in fact it's
defunct according to the OpenSolaris Constitution.
I realise the UFS Community Group is contemplating merger with some
other Community Groups. I don't want to get in the way of that, if
it's what everyone agrees should happen. But this might be a good
time to get together and agree on at least 3 Core Contributors who can
make decisions for this Community Group going forward - including the
one to dissolve, if that's what you want to do. If you would like
your Community Group to be recognised as active again, and able to
sponsor projects, please mail the OGB with a lists of the Contributors
and Core Contributors once you've worked out amongst yourselves who
those should be.
Keith, I must admit I'm just baffled.
I do have core contributor status in ON and btw, I am the UFS CRT advocate
so I wonder how this group can not have at least 1 core contributor.
I also do know that Frank Hofmann has core contributor status as well
as probably Sarah as the "owner" of this community.
something seems to go wrong here.
thanks
