PMC members and Committers

The Apache OFBiz Project operates on a meritocracy: the more you do, the more responsibility you can obtain. This page lists all of the people who have gone the extra mile and are Committers or members of the Project Management Committee (PMC). If you would like to get involved, the first step is to join the mailing lists.

Visit the map in people.apache.org to see where we are located.

    IMO, the more you "do" should read: the "more code you contribute". There doesn't seem to be any way for an individual interested in other aspects of OFBiz to participate at the "leadership" level.

      Hi Ruth,

      It's true that it's more related to code, but you may also help

      • by reviewing patches in Jira issues,
      • help in documentation here or in the embedded documentation,
      • help on dev ML when there are discussions on new features, licence subject, ...
      • help others on user ML,
        *...

      So it's not all about contributing, and I know you do already some of these.

        Hi Jacques:
        By leadership, I mean someone who can make the type of decisions being made by the PMC committee. For example, how can I get someone to make a decision to allow me access to the OFBiz web site (http://ofbiz.apache.org)? I notice that many of the PMC members place all kinds of information about themselves and/or their affiliations on that landing page. I'm talking specifically about the "In The News" section.

        Dare I ask: can a non-committer be a PMC member? Aside from the ASF members, I don't see a single PMC member who is not a committer. How would a non-committer gain PMC membership?

          Hi Ruth,
          I can't answer for the community here, and the better is to refer to Apache Meritocracy and eventually other opinions on Apache Meritocracy by Googling for them...

          BTW, doing that I found an example based on OFBiz experience, and yes it seems that it all comes down to code: "they granted direct access to the code repository" in Apache Meritocracy section.

          For the "In The News" section. I don't think it's specifically related to PMC members, for instance there have never been information about me on this page, nor about most PMC people. It's true that there are some "Sponsorship links" on this page and some links which look a bit commercial, notably recently in the news section. On the other hand, these links provide helpful tutorials and if you like to have some links there you could ask for it and I can't see any reasons it would be refused.

          The sponsorship links should dissapear when all our ressources will be handled on ASF infrastructure. BTW another mean to help here... So far we are only and handful of people dealing with that.

          Note on the sponsorship links: I think that "Site Design and Matching Theme Provided by" will remain as long as anybody see a problem with that. And if someone see a problem then it should be better discussed on user ML, where eveybody has a voice.

          The PMC members try to keep an eye on what happens in the project and identify people who have contributed a lot.

          There is always a possibility that people who have contributed a lot, in any form of contribution, haven't been noticed by a PMC member. If that is the case, and someone else notices then please notify the PMC on the private mailing list (private@ofbiz.apache.org).

          We definitely have a goal to make sure the PMC includes everyone who is significantly involved in making the project what it is (and of course who is willing to serve on the PMC).
