it should be public vote, so on the public -dev list. Here's a
suggested refinement:
"Therefore, should a Podling decide it wishes to perform a release,
the
Podling SHALL hold a vote on the Podling's public -dev list and notify
the Podling's PPMC list that the vote has been called. At least
three +1
votes are required (see guidelines at
http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html), and only the PPMC
member
votes are binding. If the majority of all votes is positive, then
send a
summary of that vote to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and formally request the
Incubator PMC approve such a release. Three +1 Incubator PMC votes are
required."
There is no need to "notify the PPMC".
PMC == Project Management Committee == the people who make decisions
for a project == the people with binding votes in public decisions
== the people on the dev list we listen to when they vote.
Anyone not on the dev list is not really on the PMC, period.
They should be officially removed from the PMC and placed in
emeritus status until they care to return.
This is often confused with the "pmc" list, which is simply a
private list with a confusing name that I will change to "private"
as soon as I get a spare day to run the scripts.
