+ Each project has a set of lists, which are typically called
+dev@<strong>project</strong>, user@<strong>project</strong>, and

+</li>
+<li>
+<p><strong>infrastructure</strong>: where the roots and the

+<div class="sectionbody">
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The intent of this document is to help podlings the
+importance of building an open and diverse community for
+their project. It gives guidelines on how to accept new
+committers and PPMC members, and how to enable more
+community involvement, taking off the burden of answering
+every question yourself.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect1">
+<h2 id="what_is_an_open_and_diverse_community">What is an open and diverse community?</h2>
+<div class="sectionbody">
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>A major criterion for graduation is to have developed an open
+and diverse <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/glossary.html#Meritocracy">meritocratic</a>
+community. Time has demonstrated that these kinds of
+communities are more robust and productive than more closed
+ones.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="sect2">
+<h3 id="people">People</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>As a project grows, it needs to renew itself by accepting new
+committers. A project needs to learn how it can recruit new
+developers and committers into the community. Accepting new
+committers usually increases the diversity of the project. So,
+this process is very beneficial. <a href="#notes-community">Community building</a> requires energy
+which could have been spent on code development but this cost
+is an important investment for the future of the project.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The openness of the community is not only measured by the
+number of contributors. Open and respectful discussions on the
+mailing lists are vital. Ways to resolve technical conflict
+without destroying personal relationships must be learned.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect2">
+<h3 id="communication">Communication</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Mailing lists are the life blood of Apache communities. They
+are the primary mode of discourse and constitute a public and
+historic record of the project. Other forms of communication
+(P2P, F2F, personal emails and so on) are secondary. There are
+well founded fears about use of these media for project
+communication. Though many projects successfully blend other
+forms of communications, care needs to be taken since
+out-of-band communications have led to difficulties in the
+past. The reason is that communications on other than the
+public mail aliases exclude parts of the community. Even
+publicly advertised IRC chats can be exclusionary due to time
+zone constraints or conflicting time commitments by community
+members who might want to participate.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Apache project mailing lists are public, well indexed and well
+archived. This allows anyone to monitor (both in real time and
+by browsing the archives) what’s happening. Opinions expressed
+are public and poor behavior risks a poster’s reputation.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Private communications tend to be more candid but also more
+likely to be ill-judged. Back channel communication tend to be
+divisive, excluding some members of the group. This tends to
+have a corrosive effect on the collective spirit of the
+community. Mistrust builds when opinions backed by blocks of
+developers arise fully formed on list.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Communication through other channels also reduces the chance
+of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serendipity">serendipity</a>.
+As with most social networks, most subscribers to a mailing
+list never post and most posts come from a tiny minority of
+subscribers. Some passive subscribers are just interested in
+where the project is going but others understand related
+fields and have a limited intersection of interest. This
+second group will often post when this topic arises on list.
+Using public mailing lists to develop designs allows the
+chance encounter of ideas which often results in innovation.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>If alternative forums are used by a project, it is important
+to try to minimize the chances of problems arising. All
+matters of substance need to be moved back to the mailing
+lists. Public records should be kept and posted back to the
+list. Regular reminders should be posted to remind people that
+other secondary forms of communication exist.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>There are a limited number of topics such as security issues
+and discussions about people which are best handled in
+private. As much business of the project as possible should
+take place on public lists but the private list is available
+for those matters of a sensitive nature. Good netiquette
+requires that permission from the poster should be sought
+before making public, posts made to a private list. Try to
+avoid cross-posting between public and private forums. Take
+care not to post a reply to a private post to a public forum
+without permission.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Learning to use mailing lists effectively is very important.
+If this can be achieved, then you have shown to be a lively,
+active and successful community. The future looks bright.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect2">
+<h3 id="community_building">Community Building</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Before a podling graduates, it must create a diverse and
+self-sustaining community. Community building is tough: it
+takes time, effort and more than a little magic. There is no
+secret recipe, just hard work. In order to overcome this
+obstacle, committers may need to devote more time to community
+building and less to development.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The <a href="mailto:community@apache.org">community mailing list</a> is open to all Apache committers. This is the right
+list for questions about community and on community building.
+Subscriptions should be from an Apache email address.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="sect3">
+<h4 id="raising_the_profile">Raising The Profile</h4>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Sometimes, a podling is just not well-enough known. There
+are simply not enough users to allow new developers to be
+recruited. Overcoming this means finding ways to raise the
+profile of the podling. Some ideas:</p>
+</div>
+<div class="ulist">
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Improve the website</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Improve the information provided within each release and release more often</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Committers who blog should join <a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html#planetapache">PlanetApache</a></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Use grassroots media</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Encourage downstream distributions to include a packaged version</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Submit talks to conferences</p>
+</li>
+<li>

+</li>
+<li>

+</ul>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect3">
+<h4 id="building_a_community_by_stepping_back_a_little">Building a community by stepping back a little</h4>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>If the podling has lots of users but very few new
+developers then this means that more work is required to
+encourage users to become developers. A common cause of
+this is that committers are too quick to create code to
+solve user problems. It’s good to respond quickly to
+requests by users. However, once a project gains momentum,
+it may be more productive for the long term health of a
+project to encourage users to become more involved at the
+expense of user satisfaction.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Try to encourage expert users to answer questions. This
+may mean intentionally allowing a time gap before
+answering user questions. Encourage users to post by
+taking the time to deal politely and positively with
+misunderstandings and by replying to threads which have
+been answered well by a user to confirm that they are
+right. Avoid engaging in flame wars on user lists. Ignore
+trolls.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Try to encourage users to become developers. When they
+give a good answer that isn’t covered in the
+documentation, ask them to submit a patch. When users
+suggest a good design or extension, ask for volunteers to
+help implement rather than just coding it up.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect3">
+<h4 id="helping_developers_become_committers">Helping Developers Become Committers</h4>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>If a podling has no trouble attracting developers but
+trouble retaining them long enough for them to become
+committers then this highlights an issue with the
+recruitment process. To become an Apache committer, a
+developer needs to hang around long enough to accumulate a
+track record of contributions. This often requires
+encouragement and help from existing committers.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Promptly reviewing patches is important. The way that
+patches are applied is also important. Provide credit in
+the commit message and when closing the JIRA. It’s also
+good to encourage developers by suggesting new related
+work they may like to volunteer for.</p>

+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The theory is that candidates are accepted or rejected by a vote on a mailing lists.
+Anyone can vote (and are <a href="participation.html#general-list">encouraged</a> to do so)
+but only eligable votes are binding on Apache. For candidates
+<a href="/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html#Sponsor">Sponsored</a>

+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Apache policy is set by the Board either directly or through it’s special committees.
+The incubation PMC is responsible to the board and so it is the duty of each PMC member
+to vote against a proposal that does not adhere to this policy.</p>

+<div class="paragraph">
+<p><a href="/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html">Incubation Policy</a> state clearly when a .

+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>However, satisfying current policy is not sufficient. Acceptance is a democractic process
