Following is the draft board resolution proposal for Sqoop project. Please
discuss any concerns regarding this proposal in this thread. Once the
discussion settles down, I will take the final proposal to VOTE on the
Incubator general list for being voted by IPMC.
Some things to note regarding this proposal:
- The initial PMC is listed as the current PPMC without the mentors
included. If the mentors would like to remain on the project, please add
yourself into the PMC list in the alphabetical order.
- Since we have not yet decided on the Chair of PMC position, that entry
in the draft proposal is put in as TBD. Before this called for vote, this
will be replaced by the appropriate name.
The proposal is published at [1] and is copied below for quick reference.
