Fwd: [RESULT] Move Velocity to TLP

Hi,

I responded on velocity-dev, not general. Should we take the rest of
this discussion to velocity-dev so it's appropriate archived and no
one is left out?

best,
WILL

Wow. Skip email for a day and there's a blizzard. I take Geir's
comments pretty seriously though.

To me, the most important part of this is the opportunity to grow the
developer community. That's easy to say, of course. Technically, any
committer in Jakarta now has svn commit rights to Velocity, and it
hasn't seemed to make a difference. But by encouraging carefully
selected projects to join the Velocity TLP, I think we'd see more
energy and effort around Velocity core itself.

What are those projects - how do we grow them - worthy of a separate thread.

Process point -- should we put the vote on hold for a few days until
we can discuss this and resolve Geir's -1?

Best,
WILL

Maybe we can
