[wtp-incubator-dev] Propose to name David Carver as WTP Incubator Projec

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I propose that we name David Carver
as the WTP Incubator Project Lead (replacing myself). 

The process to select a new
leader is described in the Eclipse
Development Process:
"The initial project leadership is appointed and approved in the creation
review. Subsequently, additional Project Leads must be elected by the project's
Committers and approved by the Project's PMC and the EMO(ED)."

So, committers on WTP Incubator
project, please reply here to wtp-incubator-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx, to signify
your agreement, or not, with this nomination. The WTP PMC has already agreed
(subject to the committers' vote). This mailing list vote will remain open
for 1 week, at which time, if there are no objections, I'll forward the
information and nomination on to EMO(ED) (Mike Milinkovich) for his approval.


This nomination is a result
of Dave effectively, but unofficially, leading the project, or many of
its components, for at least a year or two, if not more!  My apologies
for not seeing this natural fit earlier and publically recognizing Dave's
work on this project. 

I'm sure we would all agree
Dave has advanced the cause of "incubation" in many ways at Eclipse,
and especially in the WTP Incubator project, first with XSL (graduating
to WTP Source Editing project) as well as Vex, XQuery Development Tools,
and others. 

So, please join me in supporting
this nomination. 

Thank you, 

(And, thank you, Dave, for
your many contributions and leadership at Eclipse!)
