Personally I'd support your view - we are putting all these requirements and spending a lot of time talking about community - we should practice what we preach :>. Having said that - the flip side is that you and Steve are the two people who *have* put in a lot of effort into this to date. There might not be any code base patches that you have submitted, but there is a *lot* of work been done helping Cliff and the team getting to this point. An open question to xmlbeans-dev - what do the initial 9 committers think?
