OK, but what happens if the project is dead, no longer being developed, and was kicked off the simrel train for its inactivity / failure to declare intent on time? 

I'll happily contribute the fixes, but if no one reviews them or if they're bigger than the 1000 LOC limit, we're going to have a bad time. :)

Let's not go into "if"s. Start with small contributions to just check how alive is the project. If not bring it to the respective PMC for action.
 

Cheers,

Nick

You don't need to be a committer to make a contribution. In fact, that's the exact opposite of how it's supposed to happen.

Make the contribution. 

The existing committers can then choose to nominate you as a committer to support that contribution.

In exceptional circumstances, the PMC can declare a project dysfunctional and ask me to just appoint committers, but that is only if we believe that the circumstances are indeed exceptional.

HTH,

Wayne

Yes, that's what I was suggesting. We contribute the handful of fixes in Rob's fork back to the master repo on git.eclipse.org, build it on a HIPP, and contribute it into Photon.0.M6.

If someone nominates me as a committer to TM/RSE, I'll make this happen.

Should we want to re-include RSE in Photon, we could do so for M6 if someone grants me a place to publish it & permission to do so. We've got a fork [1] that updates the old Oxygen-based TM/RSE build to Tycho 1.0, and it currently builds against Photon.0.M4. This could easily be moved to an Eclipse HIPP, such as this one [2], if I can get permission to edit jobs there & publish to download.eclipse.org. 

It's not much allowed to build and publish external (non-Eclipse.org) sources on Eclipse.org infrastructre.
The only way forward, should we want to re-include RSE in Photon, would be that Rob and you get the patches you authored merged in the actual TM/RSE repository at Eclipse.org.
