Agreed. That is/was my read, too. On Dec 19, 2011 6:48 PM, "ralph.goers @dslextreme.com" < ralp@dslextreme.com> wrote:

I don't read it that way. Yes, ASF projects only contain individuals, but most of those individuals are employed and are in some way influenced by their employer. Calling out that the initial set of committers will be diverse and that a majority of those committers will be coming from places other than the company donating the code is very good to know. Perhaps the sentence should be reworded to simply reflect that.

A minor comment on one sentence...

"To that end, Adobe will only have minority representation on the initial committers list."

As I understand it, companies don't have representation in Apache projects. Individuals do, that may or may not belong to a given company, and that may or may not be operating with their employer's backing.

It'll be good to have participation by people with access to the resources of the original contributors. But it's participation by people. Whether or not those people represent Adobe is between Adobe and them.

Just so Adobe understands that's a consequence of the code grant.

Looks interesting, though. Given AOO, is this suggesting a trend of major companies transferring code and communities to Apache?

Hi everyone,

I would like to propose Flex to be an Apache Incubator project.

Here's a link to the proposal: http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/FlexProposal

Thank you,
