Hey Justin, Thanks for your comments.
The other repos under https://github.com/druid-io contain projects loosely affiliated with Apache Druid but that are not seen as part of the core project. Some of them have ongoing discussions about whether the community wants to migrate them to Apache (as sub projects, maybe, or as part of Apache Druid proper) or perhaps sunset them. I expect these conversations to continue after graduation. On the topic of branding, the PPMC is definitely aware of its responsibilities in that area. Internally we have updated our own project site branding, and externally we've reached out in a few cases already to ask for the Apache Druid name to be used correctly and to clarify the independent nature of the project. We hadn't reached out before about the two specific documents you mentioned, but I just did a few minutes ago. On the topic of committers and PPMC members, from my POV the reason for adding a bunch of committers at once was that once we started thinking about adding more, a variety of names came up at once. I think in the future we’ll likely invite additional people in a more typical manner. We’ve recently invited all active committers to join the initial PMC slate, and I expect we’d continue a policy of having an inclusive PMC. Your point on committer merit as it relates to noncode contributions is noted. It is something that we should keep an open mind on.
