Dormant guidelines proposal?

There has been some discussion about modifying the Logging Services  
project bylaws (http://logging.apache.org/site/bylaws.html) to  
address some concerns particular to the project.  I was researching  
the Jakarta guidelines and stumbled across http://jakarta.apache.org/ 
site/proposal.html.  It is referenced at the bottom of  http:// 
jakarta.apache.org/site/guidelines.html as a working proposal, but it  
does not appear from the SVN log to have any activity for over two  
years.

Was there a resolution on the proposal?  If so or if has been  
abandoned, then it might be good to pull it and the link from the  
site or at least update the status.  Has the activity moved elsewhere  
or is it just sleeping?  If either was going to be considered as a  
starting point for a rework of the LS bylaws, would you recommend the  
proposal or the accepted guidelines?

I haven't had a chance to attempt to compare and contrast the current  
and proposed guidelines, but the proposal's one page format left a  
better impression since you can see everything at one glance.

One of significant differences between our current bylaws and either  
of the proposal or existing guidelines is that the PMC is tasked with  
electing new committers.  There is a desire to move that decision  
towards the sub-project, but I'm concerned that without any role for  
the PMC and no private medium for the vote, that there isn't a clean  
way for the PMC to address a potential disruptive or legally  
entangling committer candidate except to accept the sub-project vote  
and for the PMC to attempt to revoke his committer rights requiring a  
full consensus.  There would also be no private forum to discuss any  
sensitive issues since only the PMC has a private list.   For the LS

[site] Added svn resource to library.xml

Hi!

Is there a BZ or Jira where one can open issues and add patches to the 
jakarta-site module? Or is all such requests handled on this ml?

Regards,
Fredrik Westermarck

Re: [site] Added svn resource to library.xml


Even if there is a BZ (unsure), I doubt anyone checks it out.

This mailing list is the best place.

+1 to just one dev and one user list, shared for all components, a la
Jakarta Commons.

We have a few different scenarios here, I believe.

1) A new component is proposed, with no existing code to back it up.
I'm not sure that this has ever happened in Jakarta Commons, or is
likely to happen in the new subproject, so frankly I don't much care
about how that would work. ;-)

2) A new component is proposed by an existing Apache committer. This
will almost certainly be backed up by code in the sandbox.
Historically, in Jakarta Commons, there hasn't so much been a
