PMC chair for Apache NetBeans

Hi all,

Here's the page describing what is needed for an incubating project to
become a top level project:

https://incubator.apache.org/guides/graduation.html

In there is stated:

"...you need to appoint a Chair for your project. It is up to the PPMC to
choose one person to act as the chair after graduation."

How do we want to do this, I suppose it is a question of putting vote
threads together for as many people as want to volunteer to be the PMC
chair?

The tasks are light: "The primary duty of a PMC chair is providing
quarterly reports to the board about the health and status of their
project."

See: https://apache.org/foundation/governance/pmcs.html

From my perspective, it would be a strong indicator of the independence of
NetBeans from Oracle if the PMC chair were to NOT be from Oracle. The
opposite argument is that every individual contributor is equal and it
doesn't matter where the PMC chair comes from. Still, ideally, I think, it
would not be me or someone from Oracle.

However, I believe there are several people available to take on the PMC
chair role. Should we start be seeing who wants to volunteer themselves for
this role? Or how do we want to do this?

Thanks,

Gj

I would just add my $0.02 that Geertjan has done a good job and his
acknowledgment of a possible COI with Oracle speaks volumes as well.

I would recommend he be considered for the 1st year as PMC chair with a
good plan for succession for year two.

He's worked hard during the incubation and I think it would do well to
recognize him.

Regards,
KAM

That hypothetic "someone" will then show little knowledge about how the 
ASF works (we vote here!), and about what Geertjan has been doing for 
NetBeans during the last 10-15 years?

I think we should focus on your willingness to be a PMC chair instead.

You've been pushing the project for a long time now, and I think we all 
will understand you may be wanting to step down and take a rest for a 
while. :-)

If you feel you have the strength to keep on bearing with us for some 
more time then I think we all will be honored if you keep on pushing the 
project forward.

Thank you, Geerjan,
Antonio

Re: PMC chair for Apache NetBeans

Posted by Geertjan Wielenga <ge...@googlemail.com.INVALID>.
One concern I have with me being PPMC chair is some future article by
someone ending with “...and with an Oracle product manager chairing Apache
NetBeans, Oracle is still in control of the project”. Of course, if I am
not the PPMC chair, that same article will end with “...and with a
non-Oracle contributor as PPMC chair, Oracle has now truly dumped NetBeans”.

So, maybe we shouldn’t focus on this concern.

From my perspective, I am not opposed to Kevin’s succession plan — me as
chair, with me liaising with Glenn Holmer and preparing him to take over.
Of course, this would need to be voted on, one vote thread for me now, and
in a year from now a new thread for Glenn.

Anyway, these are my personal thoughts and anyone is free to disagree or
simply start a vote thread, so that this part of our graduation to top
level project can be completed.

RE: PMC chair for Apache NetBeans

Posted by Eric Barboni <sk...@apache.org>.
As Geertjan says "preferably NOT me" we should then propose Glenn.

There is no time limit for a chair term it can be more than 1 year.
If PMC or PMC chair wants changes, PMC will discuss (maybe vote) for a new name, it should be anticipated before a board monthly meeting. (board will accept or reject).

+1 to Geertjan AND also +1 for Glenn Holmer.  Both would be excellent
candidates.  I like Kevin's succession plan idea with respect to Geertjan being the first chair for year one.
