2011-10-07 Thread Tim Williams
The "PMC Guide" page[1] seems to be redundant information with the "Mentor Guide" page[2]. Is there a reason for the PMC Guide to remain? The reason I ask is, they're currently inconsistent (re: svn auth) and - while the PMC Guide appears correct - I found the Mentor Guide more helpful. Thanks,

Sounds much better. The key thing here is to highlight the responsibilities of the PPMC, the mentors and the IPMC and whose votes binding (or not). This will ensure that everybody understands what they are supposed to do. PPMC only recommends committers and the voting in the private list is to sho

Hi, For the xml-site, avalon-site (and I assume jakarta-site?) modules, there is a cron job that synchronises daedalus with the CVS module contents. I think this is Sam Ruby's script. Does anyone know if a similar cron job exists for incubator-site, or does someone have to do a 'cvs update' in da
