Support Ex-Jakarta |
Folks,
It is time for the yearly election of the Jakarta PMC by the
committers of Jakarta.
For a background - please take some time to read:
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/management.html
The Project Management Committee (PMC) was formed by the
Apache Board in September 1999. The number of PMC seats is
set at seven.
Annually, all seven seats will be up for renewal. The ASF
board will be asked to provide a person or persons to
administer the nominations and a subsequent ballot.
The administrator(s) will determine the mechanics of
the voting procedures. Any committer to any Jakarta code
base will be eligible to vote.
Once the new PMC is in place, the first order of business
will be to determine a chairperson from amongst their ranks.
The list of current members can be found in our Project Credits.

*-dev@jakarta.apache.org
members at apache.org
and
an individual message to all people with commit
access to jakarta-* projects.
T+7 Nominations for PMC needs to be in by 0:00 GMT 7th of
February 2001. You can either nominate yourself - or
nominate someone else. What counts is the confirmation
from the nominee being received.
-> Posting a message to general@jakarta.apache.org and
Cc: jvote at apache.org with your candidature, a short
description about who you are, what you want to
accomplish.
-> Or if you are volunteered by someone else - a similar
message confirming that you are accepting the
nomination - with again - some details about yourself.
-> PMC seats are open to anyone. Regardless as to
wether you are a committer, lurker or coder. And
you can even nominate a complete outsider (assuming
he or she would consent of course.)
T+9 On the 9th of February we will send out a list of candidates to
general@.
You then have exactly 48hrs to complain about omissions,
mistakes, etc.
T+9 On the 9th of February we will email out a list of all the
committers eligible to vote to general@, *-dev, members@ and
all commiters individually.
Check that you are on that list.
Otherwise you will not get to have your vote counted.
Your .AT.apache.DOT.org address will be used.
T+12 Final list of committers eligible to vote compiled
and published to general@.
T+12 Final list of candidates compiled and published
to general@.
T+12 On the 12th of February we will send each committer and
general@ a ballot form.
The ballot will contain the names of each candidate and the
short description they have provided.
Please return this to us on the address
jvote at apache.org
before the 19th of February.
Voting Rules:
- You have seven votes.
- A ballot with no votes is invalid.
- A ballot with more than seven votes in invalid.
- You can only cast one vote per candidate.
- If you do not use all seven votes - the remainder of
the votes will be counted as abstained.
- Returned ballots which are unreadable are invalid.
Reminder: your vote does not have to be cast in public and
for the truly paranoid - pgp keys for the voting volunteers
mentioned above. Regardless of encryption: your vote will
go on record in the clear with the ASF and ASF records are
subject to the usual provisions for US corporations and
board control.
You are allowed however to Cc: in general@ - this does not
make the vote invalid.
T+19 19th of February - 0:00 GMT - close of the ballot.
T+20 20th of February - I will email each committer from the list
of the 9th (thus ignoring anyone who has gained commit
access since then) what I received from him or her.
You then have 48hrs to responds if this is wrong, if there
is an omission, perceived forgery etc.
T+22 22th of February - we will publish the results to general@.
The results are the name of the seven people which received
the largest number of votes and the total number of valid
ballots received.
A archive of the ballots will be stored with the
Secretary of the ASF.
T+* If you see irregularities, issues, or have complaints about
the procedure - complain to
jvote at apache.org
Be aware that there is escalation possible to the
or, if things are not resolved, to
board at apache.org
And that the ASF Board Secretariat will have a full record.
Let the games begin :-)
