How to add a committer that is not incubator.

[jan i <ja...@apache.org>]

Hi.

Maybe a stupid question, but I cannot find the answer.

If we want to add a existing committer (one with an apache ID) to our
project as PPMC and committer, we of course have the normal vote.

If that person is not a committer of Incubator, do we then need to do
something additional to get the person added to incubator, like call a vote
in IPMC ?

I ask because, I know by experience (I was IPMC but not
incubator-committer) that you need to be incubator-committer to use the GIT
repo.

thanks in advance for a short answer.

If will be, as soon as our local vote is completed. This is the normal
rules, so no problem.

I remember that discussion, was part of it. (we) is the IPMC chair (or any
with chair karma).

Thanks I assumed that, but better ask than to cause a bigger discussion
afterwards.

I'm assuming that the vote was forwarded to the private list of the IPMC at
some point and you waited the standard 72 hours?

Tamaya added one recently.  Other than forwarding the vote, we simply added
him to the incubator group.  No other vote, as the IPMC had clearance that
the change was happening.  As you may recall, we had a discussion a couple
months back about common auth for the incubator, implying everyone has the
same level of access to all podlings.

If that committer happens to also be an Apache Member, then it probably
would be great for that person to also join IPMC directly so that you would
have one more +1 for you release votes here.
Technically (s)he needs to be added to the "incubator" LDAP group by IPMC
through the lazy consensus forwarding of the podling vote.
