[VOTE] Change JSecurity's Name

Dear JSecurity Team,

There has been lengthy debate without consensus as to whether or JSecurity's
name should be changed to something else.  So, there is need for a vote.

Please vote on changing JSecurity's name to something else.  This is ONLY a
vote of if we should change the name, NOT what any alternate name might be.
I'd like to leave this vote open for 7 days instead of the usual 3 to
account for time that people may not be able to respond due to the
holidays.  Of course we can close the vote early if all binding votes are
accounted for prior to the 7 day limit.

The vote is open for the next 7 days and only votes from the JSecurity
development team are binding.

[ ] +1 Change JSecurity's name
[ ] -1 Do not change JSecurity's name

What's more important is the quality of the product itselt, not the
name. JSecurity has been well known in the community.

In any case, due to the name collision, I don't want to take any risk.

I don't think the reasons for change are strong enough to be worth the fuzz.

Not sure if my vote counts, but at this point I wouldn't want to change
it.

Perhaps we can keep side conversations off the vote thread.

Never mind Alan - you _did_ answer this already.  Sorry.

Thanks for the clarification!

So, just to be absolutely clear, the 5 founding developers don't have any
say in the current vote, right?.  That's fine if that is the case (it is
ASF's organization after all, and we're not members yet), I'd just like to
know for sure.

Thanks!

Re: [VOTE] Change JSecurity's Name

Posted by Les Hazlewood <lh...@apache.org>.
Let me clarify - my assumption is that a binding vote is a vote that is
officially counted that decides whether a vote passes or not.

My intent was to ensure that the following occured:  the 5 founding
developers + our 3 Incubator Mentors votes would be counted.  Any other
votes, although interesting for us to see others' opinion, would be thrown
out.  The tally of those 8 votes would be counted, and whatever the majority
of those 8 votes - that would be what makes the decision.

Is this not a correct assumption?  According to this (
http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html), my assumption may be
incorrect.  I'm just trying to get clarification on my possible ignorance of
how a vote would work...

Thanks,

Les

Ok.  But now I'm confused ;)  Does this mean the 5 founding developers on
this project don't have a binding vote in this matter?

A point of order.  Only Incubator PMC member votes are binding, e.g.  
the mentors of this project.  There has to be a minimum of three votes  
from Incubator PMC members to make the poll binding.
