-<h2 class="h3">Introduction</h2>
-<div class="section">
-<p>This document defines the bylaws under which the Apache Hadoop project
-    operates. It defines the roles and responsibilities of the project,
-    who may vote, how voting works, how conflicts are resolved, etc.</p>
-<p>Hadoop is a project of the <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/">Apache Software
-    Foundation</a>.  The foundation holds the trademark on the name
-    "Hadoop" and copyright on Apache code
-    including the code in the Hadoop codebase. The <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/faq.html">foundation FAQ</a>
-    explains the operation and background of the foundation.</p>
-<p>Hadoop is typical of Apache projects in that it operates under a set
-    of principles, known collectively as the "Apache Way". If
-    you are new to Apache development, please refer to the <a href="http://incubator.apache.org">Incubator project</a> for more
-    information on how Apache projects operate.</p>

-<a name="N10028"></a><a name="Roles+and+Responsibilities"></a>
-<h2 class="h3">Roles and Responsibilities</h2>
-<div class="section">
-<p>Apache projects define a set of roles with associated rights and
-   responsibilities. These roles govern what tasks an individual may
-   perform within the project. The roles are defined in the following
-   sections</p>
-<ul>
-   
-<li> 
-<strong>Users</strong>
-
-        
-<p>The most important participants in the project are people who
-        use our software. The majority of our developers start out as
-        users and guide their development efforts from the user's
-        perspective.</p>
-
-        
-<p> Users contribute to the Apache projects by providing feedback
-        to developers in the form of bug reports and feature
-        suggestions. As well, users participate in the Apache
-        community by helping other users on mailing lists and user
-        support forums.</p>
-</li>
-
-   
-<li> 
-<strong>Contributors</strong>
-
-        
-<p>All of the volunteers who are contributing time, code,
-        documentation, or resources to the Hadoop Project. A contributor
-        that makes sustained, welcome contributions to the project may
-        be invited to become a Committer, though the exact timing of
-        such invitations depends on many factors.</p>
-</li>
-
-   
-<li> 
-<strong>Committers</strong>
-
-        
-<p>The project's Committers are responsible for the project's
-        technical management. Committers have access to all subproject
-        subversion repositories. Committers may cast binding votes on
-        any technical discussion regarding any subproject.</p>
-
-        
-<p>Committer access is by invitation only and must be approved by
-        consensus approval of the active PMC members. A Committer is
-        considered emeritus by their own declaration or by not
-        contributing in any form to the project for over six
-        months. An emeritus committer may request reinstatement of
-        commit access from the PMC. Such reinstatement is subject to
-        consensus approval of active PMC members.</p>
-
-        
-<p>Significant, pervasive features are often developed in a speculative
-        branch of the repository. The PMC may grant commit rights on the
-        branch to its consistent contributors, while the initiative is active.
-        Branch committers are responsible for shepherding their feature into
-        an active release and do not cast binding votes or vetoes in the
-        project.</p>
-
-        
-<p>All Apache committers are required to have a signed Contributor
-        License Agreement (CLA) on file with the Apache Software
-        Foundation. There is a <a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html">Committer
-        FAQ</a> which provides more details on the requirements for
-        Committers</p>
-
-        
-<p>A committer who makes a sustained contribution to the project
-        may be invited to become a member of the PMC. The form of
-        contribution is not limited to code. It can also include code
-        review, helping out users on the mailing lists, documentation,
-        testing, etc.</p>
-</li>
-
-   
-<li> 
-<strong>Release Manager</strong>
-
-        
-<p>A Release Manager (RM) is a committer who volunteers to produce 
-	a Release Candidate according to <a href="https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease">HowToRelease</a>.
-	The RM shall publish a Release Plan on the <em>common-dev@</em> 
-	list stating the branch from which they intend to make a Release 
-	Candidate, at least one week before they do so. The RM is responsible 
-	for building consensus around the content of the Release Candidate, 
-	in order to achieve a successful Product Release vote.</p>
-</li>
-
-   
-<li> 
-<strong>Project Management Committee</strong>
-
-        
-<p>The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Hadoop was
-        created by the Apache Board in January 2008 when Hadoop moved
-        out of Lucene and became a top level project at Apache. The
-        PMC is responsible to the board and the ASF for the management
-        and oversight of the Apache Hadoop codebase. The
-        responsibilities of the PMC include</p>
-
-        
-<ul>
-        
-<li> Deciding what is distributed as products of the Apache Hadoop
-        project.  In particular all releases must be approved by the
-        PMC</li>
-
-        
-<li> Maintaining the project's shared resources, including the codebase
-             repository, mailing lists, websites.</li>
-
-        
-<li> Speaking on behalf of the project.</li>
-
-        
-<li> Resolving license disputes regarding products of the project</li>
-
-        
-<li> Nominating new PMC members and committers</li>
-
-        
-<li> Maintaining these bylaws and other guidelines of the project</li>
-        
-</ul>
-
-        
-<p>Membership of the PMC is by invitation only and must be
-        approved by a consensus approval of active PMC members. A PMC
-        member is considered "emeritus" by their own
-        declaration or by not contributing in any form to the project
-        for over six months. An emeritus member may request
-        reinstatement to the PMC. Such reinstatement is subject to
-        consensus approval of the active PMC members.</p>
-
-        
-<p>The chair of the PMC is appointed by the ASF board. The chair
-        is an office holder of the Apache Software Foundation (Vice
-        President, Apache Hadoop) and has primary responsibility to
-        the board for the management of the projects within the scope
-        of the Hadoop PMC. The chair reports to the board quarterly on
-        developments within the Hadoop project.</p>
-
-	
-<p>The chair of the PMC is rotated annually. When the chair is
-	rotated or if the current chair of the PMC resigns, the PMC
-	votes to recommend a new chair using Single Transferable Vote
-	(STV) voting. See http://wiki.apache.org/general/BoardVoting
-	for specifics. The decision must be ratified by the Apache
-	board.</p>

-
-<a name="N10094"></a><a name="Decision+Making"></a>
-<h2 class="h3">Decision Making</h2>
-<div class="section">
-<p>Within the Hadoop project, different types of decisions require
-      different forms of approval. For example, the 
-      <a href="#Roles+and+Responsibilities">previous section</a> 
-      describes several
-      decisions which require "consensus approval"
-      approval. This section defines how voting is performed, the
-      types of approvals, and which types of decision require which
-      type of approval.</p>
-<ul>
-      
-<li> 
-<strong>Voting</strong>
-
-      
-<p>Decisions regarding the project are made by votes on the
-      primary project development mailing list
-      (general@hadoop.apache.org).  Where necessary, PMC voting may
-      take place on the private Hadoop PMC mailing list.  Votes are
-      clearly indicated by subject line starting with [VOTE].  Votes
-      may contain multiple items for approval and these should be
-      clearly separated. Voting is carried out by replying to the
-      vote mail. Voting may take four flavors</p>
-
-        
-<ul>
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>+1</strong> "Yes," "Agree," or 
-              "the action 
-              should be performed." In general, this vote also indicates 
-              a willingness on the behalf of the voter in "making it 
-             happen"</li>
-
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>+0</strong> This vote indicates a willingness for the 
-              action under
-              consideration to go ahead. The voter, however will not be able
-              to help.</li>

-<li> 
-<strong>-0</strong> This vote indicates that the voter does 
-              not, in general, 
-              agree with the proposed action but is not concerned enough to 
-              prevent the action going ahead.</li>
-
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>-1</strong> This is a negative vote. On issues where 
-              consensus is 
-              required, this vote counts as a <strong>veto</strong>. All 
-              vetoes must contain an explanation of why the veto is 
-              appropriate. Vetoes with no explanation are void. It may also 
-              be appropriate for a -1 vote to include an alternative course 
-              of action.</li>
-        
-</ul>
-
-        
-<p>All participants in the Hadoop project are encouraged to show their
-        agreement with or against a particular action by voting. For technical
-        decisions, only the votes of active committers are binding. Non binding
-        votes are still useful for those with binding votes to understand the
-        perception of an action in the wider Hadoop community. For PMC 
-        decisions, only the votes of PMC members are binding.</p>
-
-       
-<p>Voting can also be applied to changes made to the Hadoop codebase. 
-       These typically take the form of a veto (-1) in reply to the commit 
-       message sent when the commit is made.</p>
-</li>
-
-    
-<li> 
-<strong>Approvals</strong>
-
-        
-<p>These are the types of approvals that can be sought. Different 
-        actions require different types of approvals</p>
-
-        
-<ul>
-        
-<li> 
-<strong>Consensus Approval -</strong>
-             Consensus approval requires 3 binding +1 votes
-             and no binding vetoes.</li>
-
-        
-<li> 
-<strong>Lazy Consensus -</strong>
-             Lazy consensus requires no -1 votes ('silence gives assent').</li>
-
-        
-<li> 
-<strong>Lazy Majority - </strong>
-             A lazy majority vote requires 3 binding +1
-             votes and more binding +1 votes than -1 votes.</li>
-
-        
-<li> 
-<strong>Lazy 2/3 Majority -</strong>
-             Lazy 2/3 majority votes requires at
-             least 3 votes and twice as many +1 votes as -1 votes.</li>
-        
-</ul>
-</li>
-
-    
-<li> 
-<strong>Vetoes</strong>
-
-        
-<p>A valid, binding veto cannot be overruled. If a veto is cast,
-        it must be accompanied by a valid reason explaining the
-        reasons for the veto. The validity of a veto, if challenged,
-        can be confirmed by anyone who has a binding vote. This does
-        not necessarily signify agreement with the veto - merely that
-        the veto is valid.</p>
-
-        
-<p>If you disagree with a valid veto, you must lobby the person casting
-        the veto to withdraw their veto. If a veto is not withdrawn, any action
-        that has been vetoed must be reversed in a timely manner.</p>
-</li>
-
-    
-<li> 
-<strong>Actions</strong>
-
-        
-<p>This section describes the various actions which are undertaken 
-        within the project, the corresponding approval required for that 
-        action and those who have binding votes over the action.</p>
-
-         
-<ul>
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>Code Change</strong>
-
-            
-<p>A change made to a codebase of the project and committed
-            by a committer. This includes source code, documentation, website
-            content, etc.</p>
-
-            
-<p>Consensus approval of active committers, but with a minimum of
-            one +1. The code can be committed after the first +1, unless
-            the code change represents a merge from a branch, in which case
-            three +1s are required.</p>
-</li>
-
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>Product Release</strong>
-
-            
-<p>When a release of one of the project's products is ready, a 
-            vote is required to accept the release as an official release of
-            the project.</p>

-<p>Lazy Majority of active PMC members</p>
-</li>
-
-         
-<li> 
-<strong>Adoption of New Codebase</strong>
-
-            
-<p>When the codebase for an existing, released product is to be
-            replaced with an alternative codebase. If such a vote fails to
-            gain approval, the existing code base will continue.</p>
-
-            
-<p>This also covers the creation of new sub-projects
-            within the project</p>

+<div class="section">
+<p>This document defines the bylaws under which the Apache Hadoop project
+    operates. It defines the roles and responsibilities of the project,
+    who may vote, how voting works, how conflicts are resolved, etc.</p>
+<p>Hadoop is a project of the <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/">Apache Software
+    Foundation</a>.  The foundation holds the trademark on the name
+    "Hadoop" and copyright on Apache code
+    including the code in the Hadoop codebase. The <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/faq.html">foundation FAQ</a>
+    explains the operation and background of the foundation.</p>
+<p>Hadoop is typical of Apache projects in that it operates under a set
+    of principles, known collectively as the "Apache Way". If
+    you are new to Apache development, please refer to the <a href="http://incubator.apache.org">Incubator project</a> for more
+    information on how Apache projects operate.</p>

+<h2 class="h3">Roles and Responsibilities</h2>
+<div class="section">
+<p>Apache projects define a set of roles with associated rights and
+   responsibilities. These roles govern what tasks an individual may
+   perform within the project. The roles are defined in the following
+   sections</p>
+<ul>
+   
+<li> 
+<strong>Users</strong>
+
+        
+<p>The most important participants in the project are people who
+        use our software. The majority of our developers start out as
+        users and guide their development efforts from the user's
+        perspective.</p>
+
+        
+<p> Users contribute to the Apache projects by providing feedback
+        to developers in the form of bug reports and feature
+        suggestions. As well, users participate in the Apache
+        community by helping other users on mailing lists and user
+        support forums.</p>
+</li>
+
+   
+<li> 
+<strong>Contributors</strong>
+
+        
+<p>All of the volunteers who are contributing time, code,
+        documentation, or resources to the Hadoop Project. A contributor
+        that makes sustained, welcome contributions to the project may
+        be invited to become a Committer, though the exact timing of
+        such invitations depends on many factors.</p>
+</li>
+
+   
+<li> 
+<strong>Committers</strong>
+
+        
+<p>The project's Committers are responsible for the project's
+        technical management. Committers have access to all subproject
+        subversion repositories. Committers may cast binding votes on
+        any technical discussion regarding any subproject.</p>
+
+        
+<p>Committer access is by invitation only and must be approved by
+        consensus approval of the active PMC members. A Committer is
+        considered emeritus by their own declaration or by not
+        contributing in any form to the project for over six
+        months. An emeritus committer may request reinstatement of
+        commit access from the PMC. Such reinstatement is subject to
+        consensus approval of active PMC members.</p>
+
+        
+<p>Significant, pervasive features are often developed in a speculative
+        branch of the repository. The PMC may grant commit rights on the
+        branch to its consistent contributors, while the initiative is active.
+        Branch committers are responsible for shepherding their feature into
+        an active release and do not cast binding votes or vetoes in the
+        project.</p>
+
+        
+<p>All Apache committers are required to have a signed Contributor
+        License Agreement (CLA) on file with the Apache Software
+        Foundation. There is a <a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html">Committer
+        FAQ</a> which provides more details on the requirements for
+        Committers</p>
+
+        
+<p>A committer who makes a sustained contribution to the project
+        may be invited to become a member of the PMC. The form of
+        contribution is not limited to code. It can also include code
+        review, helping out users on the mailing lists, documentation,
+        testing, etc.</p>
+</li>
+
+   
+<li> 
+<strong>Release Manager</strong>
+
+        
+<p>A Release Manager (RM) is a committer who volunteers to produce 
+	a Release Candidate according to <a href="https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease">HowToRelease</a>.
+	The RM shall publish a Release Plan on the <em>common-dev@</em> 
+	list stating the branch from which they intend to make a Release 
+	Candidate, at least one week before they do so. The RM is responsible 
+	for building consensus around the content of the Release Candidate, 
+	in order to achieve a successful Product Release vote.</p>

+

+<li> 
+<strong>Project Management Committee</strong>
+
+        
+<p>The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Hadoop was
+        created by the Apache Board in January 2008 when Hadoop moved
+        out of Lucene and became a top level project at Apache. The
+        PMC is responsible to the board and the ASF for the management
+        and oversight of the Apache Hadoop codebase. The
+        responsibilities of the PMC include</p>
+
+        
+<ul>
+        
+<li> Deciding what is distributed as products of the Apache Hadoop
+        project.  In particular all releases must be approved by the
+        PMC</li>
+
+        
+<li> Maintaining the project's shared resources, including the codebase
+             repository, mailing lists, websites.</li>
+
+        
+<li> Speaking on behalf of the project.</li>
+
+        
+<li> Resolving license disputes regarding products of the project</li>
+
+        
+<li> Nominating new PMC members and committers</li>
+
+        
+<li> Maintaining these bylaws and other guidelines of the project</li>
+        
+</ul>
+
+        
+<p>Membership of the PMC is by invitation only and must be
+        approved by a consensus approval of active PMC members. A PMC
+        member is considered "emeritus" by their own
+        declaration or by not contributing in any form to the project
+        for over six months. An emeritus member may request
+        reinstatement to the PMC. Such reinstatement is subject to
+        consensus approval of the active PMC members.</p>
+
+        
+<p>The chair of the PMC is appointed by the ASF board. The chair
+        is an office holder of the Apache Software Foundation (Vice
+        President, Apache Hadoop) and has primary responsibility to
+        the board for the management of the projects within the scope
+        of the Hadoop PMC. The chair reports to the board quarterly on
+        developments within the Hadoop project.</p>
+
+	
+<p>The chair of the PMC is rotated annually. When the chair is
+	rotated or if the current chair of the PMC resigns, the PMC
+	votes to recommend a new chair using Single Transferable Vote
+	(STV) voting. See http://wiki.apache.org/general/BoardVoting
+	for specifics. The decision must be ratified by the Apache
+	board.</p>

+<h2 class="h3">Decision Making</h2>
+<div class="section">
+<p>Within the Hadoop project, different types of decisions require
+      different forms of approval. For example, the 
+      <a href="#Roles+and+Responsibilities">previous section</a> 
+      describes several
+      decisions which require "consensus approval"
+      approval. This section defines how voting is performed, the
+      types of approvals, and which types of decision require which
+      type of approval.</p>
+<ul>
+      
+<li> 
+<strong>Voting</strong>
+
+      
+<p>Decisions regarding the project are made by votes on the
+      primary project development mailing list
+      (general@hadoop.apache.org).  Where necessary, PMC voting may
+      take place on the private Hadoop PMC mailing list.  Votes are
+      clearly indicated by subject line starting with [VOTE].  Votes
+      may contain multiple items for approval and these should be
+      clearly separated. Voting is carried out by replying to the
+      vote mail. Voting may take four flavors</p>
+
+        
+<ul>
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>+1</strong> "Yes," "Agree," or 
+              "the action 
+              should be performed." In general, this vote also indicates 
+              a willingness on the behalf of the voter in "making it 
+             happen"</li>
+
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>+0</strong> This vote indicates a willingness for the 
+              action under
+              consideration to go ahead. The voter, however will not be able
+              to help.</li>
+
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>-0</strong> This vote indicates that the voter does 
+              not, in general, 
+              agree with the proposed action but is not concerned enough to 
+              prevent the action going ahead.</li>
+
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>-1</strong> This is a negative vote. On issues where 
+              consensus is 
+              required, this vote counts as a <strong>veto</strong>. All 
+              vetoes must contain an explanation of why the veto is 
+              appropriate. Vetoes with no explanation are void. It may also 
+              be appropriate for a -1 vote to include an alternative course 
+              of action.</li>
+        
+</ul>
+
+        
+<p>All participants in the Hadoop project are encouraged to show their
+        agreement with or against a particular action by voting. For technical
+        decisions, only the votes of active committers are binding. Non binding
+        votes are still useful for those with binding votes to understand the
+        perception of an action in the wider Hadoop community. For PMC 
+        decisions, only the votes of PMC members are binding.</p>
+
+       
+<p>Voting can also be applied to changes made to the Hadoop codebase. 
+       These typically take the form of a veto (-1) in reply to the commit 
+       message sent when the commit is made.</p>
+</li>
+
+    
+<li> 
+<strong>Approvals</strong>
+
+        
+<p>These are the types of approvals that can be sought. Different 
+        actions require different types of approvals</p>
+
+        
+<ul>
+        
+<li> 
+<strong>Consensus Approval -</strong>
+             Consensus approval requires 3 binding +1 votes
+             and no binding vetoes.</li>
+
+        
+<li> 
+<strong>Lazy Consensus -</strong>
+             Lazy consensus requires no -1 votes ('silence gives assent').</li>
+
+        
+<li> 
+<strong>Lazy Majority - </strong>
+             A lazy majority vote requires 3 binding +1
+             votes and more binding +1 votes than -1 votes.</li>
+
+        
+<li> 
+<strong>Lazy 2/3 Majority -</strong>
+             Lazy 2/3 majority votes requires at
+             least 3 votes and twice as many +1 votes as -1 votes.</li>
+        
+</ul>
+</li>
+
+    
+<li> 
+<strong>Vetoes</strong>
+
+        
+<p>A valid, binding veto cannot be overruled. If a veto is cast,
+        it must be accompanied by a valid reason explaining the
+        reasons for the veto. The validity of a veto, if challenged,
+        can be confirmed by anyone who has a binding vote. This does
+        not necessarily signify agreement with the veto - merely that
+        the veto is valid.</p>
+
+        
+<p>If you disagree with a valid veto, you must lobby the person casting
+        the veto to withdraw their veto. If a veto is not withdrawn, any action
+        that has been vetoed must be reversed in a timely manner.</p>
+</li>
+
+    
+<li> 
+<strong>Actions</strong>
+
+        
+<p>This section describes the various actions which are undertaken 
+        within the project, the corresponding approval required for that 
+        action and those who have binding votes over the action.</p>
+
+         
+<ul>
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>Code Change</strong>
+
+            
+<p>A change made to a codebase of the project and committed
+            by a committer. This includes source code, documentation, website
+            content, etc.</p>
+
+            
+<p>Consensus approval of active committers, but with a minimum of
+            one +1. The code can be committed after the first +1, unless
+            the code change represents a merge from a branch, in which case
+            three +1s are required.</p>
+</li>
+
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>Product Release</strong>
+
+            
+<p>When a release of one of the project's products is ready, a 
+            vote is required to accept the release as an official release of
+            the project.</p>
+
+           
+<p>Lazy Majority of active PMC members</p>
+</li>
+
+         
+<li> 
+<strong>Adoption of New Codebase</strong>
+
+            
+<p>When the codebase for an existing, released product is to be
+            replaced with an alternative codebase. If such a vote fails to
+            gain approval, the existing code base will continue.</p>
+
+            
+<p>This also covers the creation of new sub-projects
+            within the project</p>
