Oversight will be provided by Ross Gardler and Sylvain Wallez (Sylvain
has yet to confirm, I will cancel this vote thread if he does not
confirm).
Committers planning to attend: Ross Gardler, Scott Wilson, Ate Douma,
Andrew Savory.
Hmm... I'm a bit confused here. I won't be able to attend (although I wish I
could), so how can I provide oversight?
Or is it about reviewing material beforehand? In this case I'd be more than
happy to do it!
In my mind, it is the latter, although we have never explicitly
discussed this on the list.
I think expecting >1% of members to turn up at every single event is
unrealistic for small projects and barcamps. For oversight we need to
make sure that the interests of the ASF are being represented. It's a
checks and balances thing.
Totally agree.
There is already a separate requirement for minimum physical
representation of the ASF at Barcamps: "Have a minimum representation
from ASF (at least three Apache sessions per day) "
There is not a similarly explicit requirement for MeetUps, I guess
when I wrote the docs I felt that it was implicit that a MeetUp will
have project folk present. Perhaps this should be made explicit with
something like "Have a minimum representation of ASF committers (at
least 4 active committers presenting)"
Hmm... taken to the letter, your document doesn't specify if the 2
members and 3 committers have to be different people. With Scott, Ate,
Andrew and you attending, this makes 3 members and 4 committers ;-)
Now as I said, I'd be more than happy to review any material that will
be presented at the meetup.
