| Re: [technology-pmc] Vote for Committer status for Jonah Graham was started by Erwin De Ley |
Guys,
I totally agree. Unfortunately Erwin didn't reach out to the other committers before nominating Jonah, so I didn't get to tell him about the meritocratic requirement. This wouldn't be a problem if it was on the form, I think.

Totally agree.I need to check, but I recall filing an issue awhile ago about having the committer nomination form require listing issues and git commits as contributions (as part of the nomination process). Seems like a very small change to make.On Fri, Jun 10, 2016 at 9:33 AM, Eric Rizzo <eclipse-mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:PMC members,
I know I've raised concern about this before, but here is another committer nomination that demonstrates fundamental misunderstanding of the process and its meritocratic nature. Even worse, there is a +1 vote from another committer with the comment "I don't know who this person is." (!). To me, that's a big warning sign that the project members have not been well-informed about how things are supposed to work.
Here's the thing, the project mentors are Wayne and Jonas, both of whom I have faith are good at being mentors, among the best. So where is the process failing these new projects and their leaders? It happens often enough that I think there is a gap somewhere; I'm just not experienced in the new project on-boarding process to know where that gap might be.
Yes, I know it's easy to educate them at this point - but I'm trying to figure out how we can prevent these kinds of nominations, not just put out the fires as they flare up.

technology.triquetrum Committers,
This automatically generated message signals that Erwin De Ley has
nominated Jonah Graham as a Committer on the technology.triquetrum project.
The reason given is as follows:
Jonah has deep expertise on integrating python in java & rcp, and on
eclipse software dvp for science.
He will be valuable for the line of work in Triquetrum related to
connectors to other languages, and other science-related extensions.
thanks
erwin
The vote is being held via the MyFoundation portal: voters *must* use the
portal for the votes to be properly recorded. The voting will continue
until either all 5 existing Committers have voted or until they have been
given enough time to vote, even if they do not do so (defined as at least
one week). Jonah Graham must receive at least three +1s and no -1s for a
successful election.
Eligible Committers must cast their votes through their My Foundation
portal page (do NOT just reply to this email; your vote will not be
correctly recorded unless you use the portal):
http://portal.eclipse.org/
The project Committers eligible to vote are:
Jay Billings
Christopher Brooks
Erwin De Ley
Matthew Gerring
Alex McCaskey
*NOTE*: Successful elections are left open for a maximum of 120 days to
allow for processing of paperwork. After that time the election will be
expired, regardless of its current status. Should papework processing on
the part of the candidate take more time than allowed, a new election will
have to be held.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your project
