Getting back to my original comment, I don't see how the IPMC can
meaningfully participate in a discussion or vote held on the PPMC
private mailing list. I don't think it's reasonable for an IPMC member
who is exercising oversight in the specific case of a new committer to
be required to subscribe to the podling's private PPMC mailing list for
this purpose.
What might work is for the [DISCUSS] and [VOTE] of the candidate to be
held simultaneously on the PPMC private mailing list and the IPMC
private mailing list. All of both the IPMC and PPMC can fully
participate in the process. Then, at the end of the [VOTE] it will be
clear whether the vote passed.
Unfortunately I would probably then unsub from [EMAIL PROTECTED] due to
mail overload.
What we are dealing with here is how non-member IPMC members can carry
out their duties as IPMC members. Non member IPMC members are in the
minority, so we are dealing with a minority case.
So, we have two choices:
1) Someone deploys a web interface to the list archives using
a sufficiently sophisticated authentication scheme
2) Whenever a non-member IPMC member wants to hear what is going on on
a [EMAIL PROTECTED] list, they ask a member who will make a password
protected zip of the list archive available to them.
At the moment, these are the options we have. Clearly 2) is more
painful, but easier to handle in the short term. I personally am open to
requests for list archives.

IPMC members must have the necessary rights to do so.
The Incubator PMC is the managing entity of all things in the
Incubator. Nothing is private from the Incubator PMC, by definition.
perhaps IPMC members should have access to all podling private lists.
No perhaps about it. Any Incubator PMC member who wants to be on any
@i.a.o list can be; if they have any difficulty being moderated on,
they should contact me (or anyone else with apmail karma).
the right to see archives, but I don't know whether they'd need a
member proxy to see the archives or if that can be done via unix
perms on p.a.o).
At present all private list archives are available only to ASF
Members. This is not policy so much as a pragmatic limitation of
available ACLs. apmail is the owner and apmember is the group. We
have talked about having a protected web interface to private lists,
but thus no one has stepped to do it. And there are issues to resolve
related to granularity of access.
