Re: [stp-pmc] STP PMC callin info


Mike,

I think we are in full agreement here:

http://www.eclipse.org/legal/committer_process/committer_request.html

Look at A & B. For initial project setup we used process B, with PMC vote and this was the way in which we brought the IBM guys in for example as they where involved in the initial creation but did not have their names together. This was noted in the initial mail sent to the EMO and thus when we added them two weeks ago we just referenced that mail to be fair and consistent. I believe that we are NOT in initial project setup anymore and thus, in my mail STP now needs to work under (A), and thus my comment to bring this up at the next PMC meeting and make sure that we follow process (A). Sorry if that mail was to cryptic.

You can correct me here, but my understanding is that is a group comes to us and wants to add another subproject to STP, then as part of that process, the members of that sub-project can be added as committers on acceptance of that proposal... (however, when and if that happens, I will check the details with Bjorn)

Regards
Carl.

Carl,

The committer process for STP is the standard one described at
http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/Eclipse_Standard_TopLevel_Charte
r_v1.0.php

Pardon me if I'm just not seeing it, but I don't see a reference to a "vote
from PMC" process.
It is acceptable for a project to list initial committers once it is first
created. But after that, each project (aka "sub-project") is supposed to be
nominating and electing their own committers following the process above.
The PMC then approves the committer and refers his election to the EMO for
provisioning.

Dan,

There are two processes that can be used, vote by committers based on contribution or vote from PMC. Once we have a good rate of code going we clearly need to use the first process, The second process is usefull for setup and for example if we work closely with WTP it might just make sense to vote a committer onto the project to help us in this area. So at this point we are still following Eclipse process.

I will bring this up in the next PMC meeting, to switch to committer vote.

Regards
Carl.

Hi Oisin,

Could you provide me with the STP PMC call-in information
for the PMC
meetings? I wasn't even aware that we were holding separate PMC meetings.

Also, I am curious why we are not following the Eclipse process for new committers? Are these individuals contributing code?
Have they
worked on a subproject and earned their committer rights?
Or are they
just new to a group and someone wanted them added to the
project just
in case they were to do something?

Eclipse projects are starting to catch some criticisms for not following Eclipse foundation processes for new committers so I just wanted to make sure we are doing things correctly.

Regards,
Dan

	[stp-pmc] Vote required for new committers request



	





At today's PMC call, I propose that we add

 Mark Little     mark.little@xxxxxxxxx
 Kevin Connor    kevin.connor@xxxxxxxxx

to the list of STP committers. If the PMC votes so, I will
follow up
with them on the required paperwork after the meeting.

 regards
