I started a [thread on `dev@logging`](https://lists.apache.org/thread/8yw874zdjms3kbms0ld6qc799974wspj). > 1. Roles come and go. Why do we follow a role-based ordering? (Want to appear at the top?) I see the `<developers>` section as a prioritized contact list. The person to contact for the **latest** release is the PMC Chair, when his term is up, someone else takes his place. I don't have any evidence that the `<developers>` section was ever used to contact a developer or any other purpose, so this is pure speculation. > 2. My organization is not ASF and I don't want to use my `@apache.org` email address either. (WTF?) > 3. I want to point to my personal home page, not some ASF/GitHub facade. We probably should remove the organization everywhere. One of the reasons this is a draft, is to allow team members to recheck and update the data they provide. The e-mail and URL are "safe" default with a `-pom` suffix to the Apache e-mail to help identifying the source of the data. BTW: I didn't add your `@apache.org` e-mail in the POM file, it was already there. > 4. `adds all the active Apache Logging Services team members` Why? This is _"a subproject of ALS"_, not _"the ALS project"_. Why do we need to list here the name of individuals who never ever done anything for `logging-parent` and/or Log4j? If we list the people "responsible" for our artifacts, that list includes also Log4cxx and Log4net developers. Some Log4j releases were validated thanks to their votes. I think that this should not be a list of copyright holders or maintainers that are also copyright holders. We could retrieve such a list from Git, but it might be inaccurate. > I am fine with removing temporal `organization`, `roles`, `timezone` entries – this will pretty much ensure sustainability. Though I prefer to respect to author's choice of `id`, `name`, `email`, and `url`. I completely agree with you. This is a draft and it will not be merged unless people agree on their data. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
