Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] "voting" privileges

Kevin and all, 

I thought about the wonderful open exchanges, now I am confused. Bare with me as I explain why:

the Committers from the Strategic members get only one [1 vote on any topic that deals with the APIs] no matter how many Committers they choose to assign to each project. isn't that correct?

If correct, 
  1. why would we remove current Committers to try to fix what currently is not broken?
  2. why would we consider as the option to add more Committers from the current members? 
  3. isn't our goal to scale and enable others to own it via actions/PRs? leading them to become future Jakarta Committers.

[point 3] THE MOST IMPORTANT: 
  • What is the process oN voting new Jakarta EE Committers within the community expected to be while we start the work on 9 release?
From my Nov. 15th msg in this thread, stats of current the Repo shows:

Shouldn't we be focusing on increasing with much care the growth of individual/Community committers also in 2020? 
Setting as baseline the Jakarta EE 8 onward, Community individuals whose actions via the Jakarta EE git ought to earn committer nominations, done without rush, transparently & highlighted via media. To me, that means the ecosystems prioritizes its community of doers & isn't that exactly what we have hoped to become known for as a project.  

Crudely brainstorming- :)

And, maybe Oracle should drop off one Committer?
FYI, we (Oracle) need to do a lot of cleanup on Committers.  We started with a lot of Committers on many projects in order to simplify the bootstrapping of the projects at Eclipse.  Some of the Committers have moved on to other roles and/or other companies.  We'll likely find a Committer we can drop if that will help.
