RE: [phoenix-dev] New Phoenix Committer

I'm sure that you'll let me know if this is a dumb question, but...
 
Why is eclipse.org a project?

Regarding your suggestions to move forward, why is it not good enough to have the discussion on a public mailing list?

I'm confused - isn't this (phoenix-dev) a public mailing list?

 

>> Yes it is public and that is the point I was trying to make.   In your original criteria to remove your veto, you required everything to be done through bugzilla.   My point is that we should also be able to use the mailing list, since it is public.


 

Regardless, here is what I believe Nathan has done and I believe it is available for all to review. 

2. Denis is out of the office but he did check-in the code for the updates Nathan did to these pages:  http://www.eclipse.org/community/rcp.php, http://www.eclipse.org/community/rcpos.php, http://www.eclipse.org/community/rcpcp.php.   I also reviewed these pages before they were checked in.

But until you said this on this list, nobody except you and Denis knew this, right? So it wasn't done in public.

 

>>>> Ok, but now that I have said it, does that count as being public and for your criteria?

 

3. Nathan has been working with Susan on the RSS feeds and a community bulletin.   One example is http://www.eclipse.org/org/press-release/20060309cb_elections.php.

But again, the work wasn't done in public.

>>> But now it is, via this mailing list, so does that count?

 

4. Nathan will be doing a number of pages for the Eclipse Awards.  I will review them and commit them next week.  Unfortunately they can not go public until March 21, for obvious reasons.


P.S. You realize that if you commit them next week they become public, right? Because the CVS is publically readable.

 

>>>> Yes and probably another reason why we are not going to use bugzilla. 



I understand that you are frustrated. The bar is being raised (back to where it once was) for all the projects.
>>> You are correct I am frustrated.  I agree with raising the bar but this just sounds like bad process that is adding no value.
