+        Dear Contributor,
+
+        The Apache UIMA project would like to offer you commit privileges.
+        We have been impressed with your contributions up till now, and
+        believe that your involvement will improve the quality of the
+        libraries we produce.
+
+        It is important that you realize that these commit privileges give
+        you access to the specific Apache UIMA project repository for which you
+        are involved with. They do not provide commit access to any other
+        Apache based project. Those projects will have to grant you commit
+        privileges themselves.
+
+        If you are interested in having commit privileges, please just let us
+        know, and we will setup an account on apache.org. It would expedite
+        the process if you could provide your preferred account name. 
+        This process could take a few days once
+        we get this information.
+
+        We all hope that you accept this invitation.
+
+        The Apache UIMA Project Management Committee.

+          send email to:

+                                                <p> The new committer should also send an email to
+          <strong>asf at jaguNET.com</strong> with the following information (please cut
+          and paste to return format):
+        </p>
+                                                <blockquote> Name: {your name}
+          <br /> Email: {your email address on the ASF lists}
+          <br /> Projects: {comma separated list of ASF projects to which you have commit
+          access}
+          <br /> Key: {a blank line followed by your public key}
+        </blockquote>
+                                                <p>For example:</p>
+                                                <blockquote> Name: Joe Foobar
+          <br /> Email: joe@byteme.com
+          <br /> Projects: Tomcat, httpd
+          <br /> Key:

+        </blockquote>
+                                                <p> Finally, a new committer should also submit a signed copy of the Contributor
+          License Agreement to the ASF. See the
+          <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas">
+            <strong>Licenses page</strong></a> for details.
+        </p>
+                                                <p> Note 1: If a committer already has an account on the apache.org server and the
+          committer needs commit access to additional projects, then all that needs to be
+          done is to have the user notify general@incubator.apache.org with the results of
+          the voting (as documented above) and the user will be given access. In other words,
+          the root email address should only be used on the basis of new account creation.
+        </p>
+                                                <p> Note 2: All committers will be given write access to uima/site SVN on request. In
+          other words, committers should be able to update the main website.
+        </p>
+                                                <p> At times, Committers may go inactive for a variety of reasons. A Committer that has
+          been inactive for 6 months or more may lose their status as a Committer. Getting
+          access back is as simple as re-requesting it on the project's Developer mailing
+          list.
+        </p>

+
+        <h3 align="center"><font color="#FF0000"><b>Note: This is a working draft document.</b>
+        </font></h3>
+      <p align="center">Discussion of this document is occuring on the uima-dev mailing list.</p><br />
+<p>
+The Apache UIMA Contribution Policy is summarized below: 
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>
+  We are working to ensure that we have broad participation from the community, 
+  at all experience levels and interests, but at the same time we are working to 
+  minimize any risks to the ASF, the project and our community due to 
+  inappropriate contributions of the intellectual property of others.
+</li>
+<li>
+   We adhere to the standard Apache process and contribution agreements.
+</li>
+<li>
+  We require every contributor to fill out the standard Apache
+  <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas">Individual 
+    Contributors License Agreement</a>.
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<subsection name="Strict Limits on Committer Contributions">
+
+<p>
+Committers can commit contributions to the repositories 
+that they personally created <i>specifically for contribution to Apache UIMA.</i>
+This is the standard stream of fresh original work, small enhancements 
+and patches that are the normal flow of project life.
+</p>
+  
+  <p>Committers can commit contributions to the repositories that
+  were created by another contributor that do not have commit access,
+  and were created <i>specifically for contribution to Apache UIMA</i>,
+    provided: </p>
+  <ul>
+    <li>the contributor has a signed Contributors License Agreement
+    listed with Apache
+    
+</li>
+    <li>the contribution is made as an attachement to a UIMA Jira issue</li>
+    <li>the attachment is marked as "ASF Granted License", indicating that
+    the contributer has granted a license for the attachment sufficient to enable
+    the UIMA Project to incorporate the attachement and distribute the result 
+    under the Apache 2.0 license</li>
+   
+  </ul>
+  
+  <!--  
+  <p>Committers can commit bulk code if they 
+  adhere to these rules:
+  </p>
+  
+  <ul>
+    <li>All contributed code must be the original work of the contributor, or
+      if the contributed code contains third party code not the original work of the
+      contributor, it must be first discussed on the uima-dev discussion list and
+      the IP Clearance process described in 
+      <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html">
+        Intellectual property clearance</a>
+      must be done and documented.  A special subdirectory of the UIMA project is
+    kept for storing the results of these clearances.</li>
+      
+    <li>The contributor must have an Apache Individual Contributor License Agreement
+    recorded and acknowledged by the ASF.</li>
+  </ul>
+    -->
+
+<p>
+The purpose of 
+this rule is to explicitly prohibit re-purposed "bulk" code 
+<!-- that the contributor believes is their original work--> from being
+added to the codebase without explicit oversight and acceptance. 
+We can still accept contributions like that, but will track them explicitly
+as Bulk Contributions.
+</p>
+
+
+</subsection>
+
+
+<subsection name="Policy for Committers">
+
+<p>
+Each committer is required to complete a standard 
+<a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas">Apache Individual Contributor License Agreement</a>.
+This document asserts that the contributor is licensing their 
+material to the ASF under the Apache license and is their original work (there's some other details).
+This document is maintained and managed by the Secretary of the Apache Software Foundation.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+We encourage every committer, if appropriate, to have their employer execute a 
+<a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/">Apache Corporate Contributor License Agreement</a>.
+Note that this is recommended, but not required.
+</p>
+
+</subsection>
+
+<subsection name="Policy for Bulk Contributions">
+
+<p>
+Any software or other contribution that was not created explicitly for 
+Apache UIMA <i>in</i> the Apache UIMA project is considered to
+be a 'Bulk Contribution'.  This status is independent of the purpose
+or author of said contribution.  For example:
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li> Personal utilities that a committer always uses on projects</li>
+<li> Code from other open source projects that have a compatible license</li>
+<li> Code from proprietary projects for which the donor has clear title</li>
+<li> Larger pieces of Code being committed on behalf of other contributors, typically using a Software Grant</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+Any Bulk Contribution:
+</p>
+
+<ol>
+<li> Will be donated via the project bug tracking system (JIRA) as a contribution under the Apache License.</li>
+<li> Will be accompanied by a Software Grant (for large contributions) or ICLA (small contributions) 
+  which will be registered with the Apache Incubator</li>
+<li> done using a Software Grant will be registered in the Apache UIMA Bulk Contribution Repository
+      via a <a href="bulk-contribution-checklist.html">Bulk Contribution Checklist</a></li>
+</ol>
+
+<p>
+The Bulk Contribution Repository is a separate place in our administrative SVN in which records
+  the Bulk Contribution Checklist and other checklist information, for each contribution.
+We do this to
+ensure that we have a clear and unambiguous record of any repurposed software that was contributed or
+brought into the project source tree. 
+</p>
+
+<p>
+We strongly urge any potential contributor to carefully examine their candidate for contribution (for instance,
+  run code scans to insure the contributed code doesn't accidentally contain things that could
+  cause licensing difficulties) 
+before offering to the project.  To that end, we have started collecting information on tools and
+other aids to help in this process, and it can be found on this page about 
+  <a href="code-scan-tools.html">code scan tools</a>.

+        <a href="roles.html">Contributors</a> are encouraged to participate in

+        &quot;
+        <em>Minimum Threshold Meritocracy</em>&quot;.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h2>Voting</h2>
+      
+      <p> The act of voting carries certain obligations. Voting members are not only stating
+        their opinion, they are also agreeing to help do the work.
+      </p>
+      
+      <p> Any subscriber to the list may vote on any issue or action item. However, the only
+        binding votes are those cast by a Committer. <!--If the vote is about a change to the source code or
+        documentation and the primary author is a Contributor and not a
+        Committer, the primary author of what is being changed may also
+        cast a binding vote on that issue. -->
+      </p>
+      
+      <p> Any Contributor or Committer ("member") may call for an action-item vote on the
+        uima-dev mailing list. It is preferred that a vote be preceded by a formal proposal
+        offered for discussion purposes. The message announcing a vote should contain a
+        Subject beginning with "[VOTE]", and a distinctive one-line summary corresponding
+        to the action item for the vote.
+      </p>
+      
+      <p>Each vote can be made in one of three flavors:</p>
+      
+      <table>
+        <tr>
+          <td>
+            <strong>+1</strong>
+          </td>
+          <td>
+            &quot;Yes,&quot; &quot;Agree,&quot; or &quot;the action should be
+            performed.&quot; On some issues this is only binding if the voter has tested the
+            action on their own system(s).
+          </td>
+        </tr>
+        
+        <tr>
+          <td>
+            <strong>+/-0</strong>
+          </td>
+          <td>
+            &quot;Abstain,&quot; &quot;no opinion&quot;. An abstention may have
+            detrimental effects if too many people abstain. -0 can indicate lack of support,
+            but without any alternative being proposed.
+          </td>
+        </tr>
+        
+        <tr>
+          <td>
+            <strong>-1</strong>
+          </td>
+          <td>
+            &quot;No&quot; On issues where consensus is required, this vote counts as a
+            <strong>veto</strong>. All vetos must contain an explanation of why the veto is
+            appropriate, and possibly, an alternative. Vetos with no explanation are void.
+            No veto can be overruled. If you disagree with the veto, you should lobby the
+            person who cast the veto. Voters intending to veto an action item should make
+            their opinions known to the group immediately so that the problem can be remedied
+            as early as possible.
+          </td>
+        </tr>
+        
+      </table>
+      
+      <p>An action item may need one of two types of approval.</p>
+      <blockquote>
+        
+        <p> An action requiring consensus approval must receive at least
+          <strong>3 binding +1</strong> votes and
+          <strong>no binding vetos</strong>.
+        </p>
+        <p> An action requiring majority approval must receive at least
+          <strong>3 binding +1</strong> votes and more
+          <strong>+1</strong> votes than
+          <strong>-1</strong> votes.
+        </p>
+        
+      </blockquote>
+      <p> Except for a public release, All other action items are considered to have lazy
+        approval until somebody votes
+        <strong>-1</strong>, at which point the action item is converted to a formal
+        consensus or majority vote, depending on the type of action item.</p>
+      
+      <blockquote><p>Note: "Lazy" means the action item has immediate tactic approval, and
+        it is not necessary to tally the vote until a -1 reply is posted. Once a -1 reply is
+        posted, the vote must be tallied and reported before the action item is considered
+        approved. All action-item votes are lazy except for a public release vote.
+        </p></blockquote>
+      
+      <h3>Voting Caveats</h3>
+      
+      <ul>
+        <!--
+        <li>A +1 vote regarding product code is only can only be made binding 
+        if the voter has tested the action on their own system(s) equipment.</li>
+        
+        <li>A binding +1 vote on a public release means the (sub)project's Committer 
+        agrees to provide ongoing support for that release while it is current.</li>
+        Members who wish to discuss a vote before replying, may open another thread to help avoid premature vetos. Any +/-1's or +/-0's posted to an alternate thread, or any other thread not labeled "[VOTE]", are considered conversational, and do not qualify as an valid action-item vote. A "lazy item" remains subject to lazy approval until a valid -1 reply is posted to the "[VOTE]" thread.
+        -->
+        <li>An abstention may have detrimental effects if too many people abstain.</li>
+        <li>Vetos with no explanation are void. No veto can be overruled. If you disagree with
+          the veto, you should lobby the person who cast the veto. Voters intending to veto an

+          problem can be remedied as early as possible.</li>
+        <!--
+        <li>If a Committer believes the explanation for a veto is invalid, 
+        an affirmation of the veto can be requested. If some other 
+        Committer does not affirm that the explanation for the veto is 
+        valid, the veto shall be void.</li>
+        <li>If a dispute over a veto becomes intractable, the PMC may consent to arbitrate 
+        the matter, and, if appropriate, rescind the veto with a 3/4 
+        majority vote of the PMC members.</li>
+        -->
+        <li>Members who wish to discuss a vote before replying, may open another thread to
+          help avoid premature vetos. Any +/-1's or +/-0's posted to an alternate thread, or

+      
+      <h2>Action Items</h2>
+      
+      <p> All decisions revolve around &quot;
+        <em>Action Items.</em>&quot; Action Items consist of the following:
+      </p>
+      
+      <ul>
+        <li><a href="#long_term_plans">Long Term Plans</a></li>

+      </ul>
+      
+      <h3><a id="long_term_plans">Long Term Plans</a></h3>
+      
+      <p> Long term plans are simply announcements that group members are working on
+        particular issues related to the Project. These are not voted on, but Committers who
+        do not agree with a particular plan, or think that an alternative plan would be better,
+        are obligated to inform the group of their feelings.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h3><a id="short_term_plans">Short Term Plans</a></h3>
+      
+      <p> Short term plans are announcements that a volunteer is working on a particular set of
+        documentation or code files with the implication that other volunteers should avoid
+        them or try to coordinate their changes.

+      <p> A release plan is used to keep all volunteers aware of when a release is desired, who
+        will be the release manager, when the repository will be frozen to create a release,
+        and other assorted information to keep volunteers from tripping over each other.
+        Lazy majority decides each issue in a release plan.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h3><a id="release_testing">Release Testing</a></h3>
+      
+      <p> After a new release is built, it must be tested before being released to the public.
+        The Release Manager will announce that a release is ready for testing.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h3><a id="public_release">Public Release</a></h3>
+      
+      <p>Once the Release Manager determines that testing is complete, and all showstoppers
+        for the release have been resolved, the Release Manager shall call for a vote on the
+        public release. Majority approval is required before the public release can be made.
+        The Committers who approve a public release (vote +1) are expected to provide ongoing
+        support for that release while it is current. The Release Manager must summarize the
+        outcome of the vote before the public release becomes final.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h3><a id="showstoppers">Showstoppers</a></h3>
+      
+      <p> Showstoppers are issues that require a fix be in place before the next public
+        release. They are listed in the status file in order to focus special attention on
+        these problems. An issue becomes a showstopper when it is listed as such in the status
+        file and remains so by lazy consensus.
+      </p>
+      
+      <h3>Product Changes</h3>
+      
+      <p> Changes to the products of the Project, including code and documentation, will
+        appear as action items in the status file. All product changes to the currently active
+        repository are subject to lazy consensus.

+      <p>
+        The Project Management Committee (PMC) has not yet been formed.
+        It will be formed when and if the project graduates from the
+        Incubator.   </p>
+        <!-- was formed by the Apache Board
+        on 17 July 2002.  The bylaws were last amended on 6 October 2004.
+        There is no preset number of seats on the PMC.  The PMC will strive to
+        add every committer within DB that, in the opinion of the PMC as 
+        determined by a vote, displays the capability and desire to help guide 
+        the DB project. The PMC will nominate a chairperson from amongst their 
+        ranks for presentation to the Board. The list of current members can be found in our
+        <a href="./whoweare.html"> Project Credits</a>.
+      </p>
+
+      <subsection name="Roles">
+        <p>
+          The PMC is responsible for the strategic direction
+          and success of the DB Project. This governing body is expected to
+          ensure the project's welfare and guide its overall direction. The PMC
+          may not necessarily participate in the day-to-day coding but is
+          involved in the overall development plans, the alleviation of any
+          bottlenecks, the resolution of conflicts, and the overall technical
+          success of the project.
+        </p>
+
+        <p>
+          The PMC is answerable to the Apache Board with its Chairman serving as
+          primary liaison.
+        </p>
+      </subsection>
+
+      <subsection name="Meetings">
+        <p>The PMC discusses issues and determines strategic direction via mail
+           list.  All binding votes happen on the PMC list.
+        </p>
+      </subsection>
+
+      <subsection name="Membership">
+        <p>
+          PMC members may resign at any time. A committer will remain on the DB 
+          PMC until removed by desire of the committer, action of the board, or
+          vote by the PMC.  The Chairman may resign as Chairman at any time 
+          without resigning membership to the PMC. The chairperson will serve 
+          until voluntary resignation, action of the board, or vote by the PMC.
+          The Chairman or any member may be removed from the PMC by a 3/4
+          vote of the PMC.
+        </p>
+
+        <p>
+          In order to be elected to the PMC, a person must have served as a
+          <a href="roles.html">Committer</a> and be
+          nominated by a PMC Member. The nominee must receive 3/4 positive vote
+          with a minimum of 3 positive votes.  Abstaining PMC voters do not 
+          affect the result.
+        </p>
+      </subsection>
+
+      <subsection name="Creation of Subprojects">
+        <p>
+          PMC members may propose the creation of new subprojects. Creation of 
+          a new subproject requires approval by 3/4 positve vote with a minimum
+          of 3 positive votes of the PMC.  Abstaining PMC voters do not 
+          affect the result.  New code enters the DB project in accordance with
+          ASF policy.
+        </p>
+      </subsection>
+
+      <subsection name="Voting">
+        <p>The call for a vote on issues not detailed here may specify 
+        requirements for passage. The minimum and default requirement for a 
+        passing vote is simple majority of PMC members casting ballots.
+        The default voting period is 10 days and the minimum is 7 days unless
+        the success or failure is arithmetically known.
