Greetings PMC.
We have a situtation.
The XWT project team has apparently stopped
participating in the simultaneous release process.
According to the EDP, the XWT project must engage in a
release review before the version 1.2 bits can be
released. If they do not engage in this review, then
we have to remove them from the simultaneous release.
Unfortunately, at least two other projects in the
simultaneous release depend on XWT, so removing it
will be at least a little bit painful. I'm assuming
that these dependent projects have done sufficient
testing of their features that depend on XWT.
Theoretically, if we remove them from the
release, the projects that use XWT can revert to an
earlier version. That's one option to consider.
Perhaps those projects may be able to extract
themselves from XWT.
Another option is for us to declare the
project dysfunctional, retire the current project lead
and team, and then push it through the process
ourselves. Then, following the release, we first look
for another team to take over the project or take
steps to terminate and archive the project.
I've sent a note to the dev-list and
personal note to the project lead in a last-ditch
effort to get a response. If we don't hear back before
Monday, we'll have to make a decision.
