There most certainly is risk here. People want to get to work on their project, and they need to know the name is set in stone. We can't have people making logos and webpages and o.a.geronimo.foo classes when at the end of it all when it comes time to exit the incubator, they have to change everything they've been working on. Maybe you'd rather just use the PPMC as an avenue to ignore the votes of the Incubator PMC and those members who have said they want the name to change? -aaron --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
