The trouble is that projects are copying bylaws from each other which do not conform to ASF policy. In particular they are copying the project “killing” 6 month inactivity means automatic PMC emeritus measure when there is no such thing at the foundation level. From the IPMC and board side we expect that new projects have learned the Apache Way before they graduate and then we task them With making it up after the fact. I agree with Greg that the Board should make the call, but I do think the IPMC should make a recommendation. I do not think that projects should have to opt out of making bylaws. I think that they should make policies including voting policies that fit the “minimal” Apache policies. Regards, Dave > > -Taylor > >> On Sep 2, 2018, at 5:25 PM, John D.
