Discussion
Before approving membership, it's assumed that the person has actively contributed through this process:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/JUNEAU/Contributing+for+Non-committers
Once it's been shown that the member submits good work, the team can invite them to be a full member.
| Round Rectangle | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
To: private@juneau.apache.org I'd like to discuss adding |
...
Jane Doe as a PMC member. State reason why. |
Call for vote
If there is consensus that the proposed member is suitable, then there should be a formal vote in the PMC private alias:
| Round Rectangle | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
To: private@juneau.apache.org I'm pleased to be calling this vote for inviting [Jane Doe] to be a member of the Juneau PMC. |
...
2016 1:30pm and passes if a majority of at least three +1 Apache Juneau PMC votes are cast. State reason why. |
Close the vote
If the vote is successful, the proposer should send a message to the PMC private alias.
| Round Rectangle | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
To: private@juneau.apache.org Voting for PMC membership for [Jane Doe] is now closed. The vote has passed with the following tally: John Smith, PMC, +1 |
Board notification
Adding a new PMC member requires sending an email notification to the Board's mailing list and copying the PMC's private mailing list and waiting 72 hours. Once the notification appears in the archives, an invitation may be sent out 72 hours later (unless a Director objects to the nomination). The detailed process can be found in the June 2013 board minutes under section "7 G. Amend the Procedure for PMC Membership Changes"
...
Ensure the PMC private list is copied - but do not Cc the potential member. For example:
| Round Rectangle | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||||
To: board@apache.org Juneau proposes to invite [Jane Doe](janedoe) to join the PMC. (include if a vote was held) |
It should noted that there is a grace period of 72 hours from when the above NOTICE is sent to the
...
board to when the proposed member is formally invited. This is an important part of the overall process. Failure to do this can result in an embarrassing situation for people involved.
PMC Invite
After 72 hours, Joe Bob Jane Doe should be invited to join the PMC, using a sample message like this:
...
. Check to see if the proposed committer already has an Apache id.

: private@juneau.apache.org Hello [Jane Doe], The Juneau Project Management Committee (PMC) |
...
hereby offers you committer privileges to the project |
...
as well as membership in the PMC. These privileges are |
...
offered on the understanding that you'll use them |
...
reasonably and with common sense. We like to work on trust |
...
rather than unnecessary constraints. Being a committer enables you to more easily make |
...
changes without needing to go through the patch |
...
submission process. Being a PMC member enables you |
...
to guide the direction of the project. Being a committer does not require you to |
...
participate any more than you already do. It does |
...
tend to make one even more committed. You will |
...
probably find that you spend more time here. Of course, you can decline and instead remain as a |
...
contributor, participating as you do now. A. This personal invitation is a chance for you to |
...
accept or decline in private. Either way, please |
...
let us know in reply to the private@juneau.apache.org |
...
address only. B. If you accept, the next step is to register an iCLA |
...
if you do not have an Apache id. If you have an Apache id, let the PMC know by return email what your id is. 1. If you do not have an Apache id, details of the iCLA and the forms are found here: |
...
http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas 2. Instructions for its completion and return to |
...
the Secretary of the ASF are found |
...
here: 3. When you transmit the completed iCLA, request |
...
to notify the Apache Juneau and choose a |
...
unique Apache id. Look to see if your preferred |
...
id is already taken at |
...
http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html |
...
.This will allow the Secretary to notify the PMC |
...
when your iCLA has been recorded. When recording of your iCLA is noticed, you will |
...
receive a follow-up message with the next steps for |
...
establishing you as a committer. |

com Welcome. Here are the next steps. After that we will make |

an announcement to the juneau-dev list. You need to |

have an Apache id. If you do not already have one, you will need to send an individual Contributor License Agreement to the ASF. |
...
If you also make |

contributions done in work time or using work resources then |
...
consult with your company to see if they want to file a corporate CLA. Ask us (the PMC) if you have any |

questions. http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas You need to choose a preferred ASF user name and alternatives. |
...
In order to ensure it is available you can view a list of taken ids at http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html Please notify us when you have submitted the |
...
iCLA and by what means |
...
you did so. This will enable us to monitor its progress. We will arrange for your Apache user account when the |
...
iCLA has |

been recorded. After that is done, please make followup replies to the |

dev@juneau.apache.org list. |

We generally discuss everything there and keep the |

PMC Account Creation
For new Apache committers:
Request new account for new committer:
https://whimsy.apache.org/officers/acreqFollow the instructions here.
In summary:
If the ICLA identifies the project and a valid Apache id, and the [RESULT][VOTE] message has been posted to the PMC private list, then the account creation request is made by the secretary or assistant who files the ICLA. Otherwise, the new account request should be made by the PMC Chair (or any ASF Member if the chair is unavailable).
...
For new and existing Apache committers:
- Make sure user is listed on this page to ensure iCLA has been received.
https://svn.apache.org/repos/private/foundation/officers/iclas.txt - Add user to Juneau project using Whimsy
https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committee/juneau - Add user permissions to edit the Confluence pages:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/spaces/editspacepermissions.action?key=JUNEAU - Add user to list of developers in juneau-root/pom.xml.
- Add user to list of members in juneau-website/templates/community.html.
