| Re: [technology-pmc] [simopenpass-dev] PMC Approval required for Committer Election for David Weiß on Eclipse sim@openPASS |
Hi Gunnar, I already noticed that I might have violated the process by not setting the Author field. Up to now I thought my method is in accordance with Developer's Certificate of Origin (c) located in the ECA. I'll contact the Eclipse Webmaster to coordinate the cleanup of the repository.

However, you cannot just take his contributions and commit them to Git in your name not giving any credits to David. Worse, if there is no public record I believe *you* just committed a violation of the Eclipse Foundation Development Process. Yikes! Can you work with the Eclipse Webmaster ASAP to rewrite the Git history for proper attribution of David's contributions? Once this is fixed we have the record and can approve the election. Note, rewriting Git history is a destructive process, i.e. incoming links to specific commits will break as such an operation. However, there is no really other option. We should clean up this mess. Please read through the project handbook here: https://www.eclipse.org/projects/handbook/#ip-project-content ---- Contributions by others (i.e., developers who are not committers on the receiving project) must be received via an Eclipse Foundation channel (e.g., GitHub pull request, Gerrit review, or attachment on an issue). [details when CQ is required] All contributions of project content must be tracked in the project’s IP Log. This is done automatically when the author information is correctly specified in Git commit records (e.g., the content creator’s credentials are correctly recorded in the author field of Git commit records). ---- More details on Git Commit records is here: https://www.eclipse.org/projects/handbook/#resources-commit -Gunnar -- Gunnar Wagenknecht gunnar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, http://guw.io/ > On Sep 21, 2020, at 14:55, Biegel, Reinhard <reinhard.biegel@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Yes, you are right regarding your assumption that I have created the commits containing David’s contributions.

I'm looking for examples of direct engagement with the process. If David is to join the team as a committer, we have to have some confidence that he understands the development process and his obligations under the Eclipse IP Policy. > > Wayne > > On Fri, Sep 18, 2020 at 4:25 AM Biegel, Reinhard <reinhard.biegel@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Wayne, > > David has contributed various smaller fixes and features.
