[VOTE] Resolution to create Ant top level project

Following on from our discussions, I have put togther a final resolution 
which I think we can vote upon now. The resolution is attached below.

I have attempted to contact all committers who did not explicitly reply to 
Stefan's "Initial PMC" thread recently.

I am happy to report that Duncan, the original author of Ant has agreed to 
be an emeritus member of the PMC. I hope it helps to recognize his 
contribution to Ant.

The following committers no longer require commit access to Ant.

Stefano Mazzocchi
Justyna Horwat
Hans Bergsten
Craig R McClanahan
Glenn McAllister

Many of these people contributed to Ant's early development and have moved 
onto other projects now. Again, I would like to recognize their important 
contributions.

Two committers wanted to retain commit access but did not want to be on the 
PMC. That's fine of course

Jason Hunter
Darrell DeBoer

Finally I did not receive replies from the following committers:

jon, akv, preston, shemnon, shachor, arnout, gonzo, mode, hasishp, arun, 
tom, nico, nickdavis, adammurdoch

Again, that's OK - they might be enjoying a holiday, whatever. These 
committers will retain commit access but will not be members of the initial 
PMC. If anyone can contact them, and they are interested, I believe we can 
add them to the initial PMC.

So, all committers, please vote on the resolution. I believe this should be 
a majority vote (An action requiring majority approval must receive at least 
3 binding +1 votes and more +1 votes than -1 votes.)

[ ] +1 - I support the resolution being submitted to the board for its 
consideration

[ ] -1 - I do not agree with the resolution in it's current form.

Thanks
Conor

No sweat.

Greg said:

"The Board is meeting on November 18th after the Members meeting. It would 
be best to have any resolutions sent to board@ by Thursday the 14th to give 
the Board members ample time to review it and to suggest any changes,  if
necssary."

So, I think we have time even with the 72 hours for the vote.

I've been the one pushing to make it for the next board meeting in the
past.  Sorry if this now reads the other way around.

Yes, we better have the community support it than rush things.

I think the standard deadline is 72 hours. I'm confident we will know the 
disposition of most committers who are active before then. I'll try to hurry 
things along if necessary.

If things look positive, I will submit a draft to the board for their 
feedback prior to final confirmation of the vote. If the vote passes we 
should still be able to make the board meeting of the 18th. If not, the next 
one will have to do.

Do we want to set a dead-line for the vote?

We should certainly do so.

[X] +1 - I support the resolution being submitted to the board for
