I'm fascinated that such an overwhelming majority of the questions are
about money, and I'd be curious to know what kind of answers were given
to this.
Looking at the list of members of this ALC -
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COMDEV/ALC+Indore - I am
pretty confident that they got the right answers, since the list is
heavy on people with experience at Apache.
But looking out longer term, I'm concerned, as I mentioned in the other
thread, that we are authorizing people to speak on our behalf, by virtue
of nothing more than sending an email to this list with "request to
setup ALC Foxtrot Arkansas". What vetting do we have in place before we
delegate our name to people who are neither members nor committers?

Thank you so much Rich for raising this critical point.
As mentioned in separate mail thread, I have started communication on the
private ComDev list on this sensitive issue.
Best regards,
