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,
- why would we remove current Committers to try to fix what currently is not broken?
- why would we consider as the option to add more Committers from the current members?
- 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- :)
