| Apache DB Documentation Template |
| ================================== |
| This template derived various aspects from Apache Deltaspike template, the Apache ISIS template and the Datanucleus template. |
| This template uses |
| * Bootstrap v3.3.7 (https://getbootstrap.com/) for navbar. |
| * Asciidoctor "foundation" CSS |
| * Bootswatch "cosmo" theme for Bootstrap (https://bootswatch.com/cosmo). |
| * Bootstrap TOC plugin v0.4.1 (https://afeld.github.io/bootstrap-toc/) for the table of contents. |
| * jQuery (necessary for Bootstrap's JavaScript plugins) |
| * Font-Awesome for some icons used by Asciidoctor |
| NOTE: tried using Font-Awesome CSS hosted locally but then fails to work! |

| <div class="sectionbody"> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The Project Management Committee (PMC) was formed by the Apache Board on 17 |
| July 2002. The bylaws were last amended on 6 October 2004. There is no preset |
| number of seats on the PMC. The PMC will strive to add every committer within |
| DB that, in the opinion of the PMC as determined by a vote, displays the |
| capability and desire to help guide the DB project. The PMC will nominate a |
| chairperson from amongst their ranks for presentation to the Board. The list |
| of current members can be found in our <a href="whoweare.html">Project Credits</a>.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect2"> |
| <h3 id="_roles">Roles</h3> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The PMC is responsible for the strategic direction and success of the DB |
| Project. This governing body is expected to ensure the project’s welfare and |
| guide its overall direction. The PMC may not necessarily participate in the |
| day-to-day coding but is involved in the overall development plans, the |
| alleviation of any bottlenecks, the resolution of conflicts, and the overall |
| technical success of the project.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The PMC is answerable to the Apache Board with its Chairman serving as |
| primary liaison.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect2"> |
| <h3 id="_meetings">Meetings</h3> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The PMC discusses issues and determines strategic direction via mail list. |
| All binding votes happen on the PMC list.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect2"> |
| <h3 id="_membership">Membership</h3> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>PMC members may resign at any time. A committer will remain on the DB PMC |
| until removed by desire of the committer, action of the board, or vote by the |
| PMC. The Chairman may resign as Chairman at any time without resigning |
| membership to the PMC. The chairperson will serve until voluntary |
| resignation, action of the board, or vote by the PMC. The Chairman or any |
| member may be removed from the PMC by a 3/4 vote of the PMC.</p> |
| </div> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>In order to be elected to the PMC, a person must have served as a |
| <a href="roles.html">Committer</a> and be nominated by a PMC Member. The nominee must |
| receive 3/4 positive vote with a minimum of 3 positive votes. Abstaining PMC |
| voters do not affect the result.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect2"> |
| <h3 id="_creation_of_subprojects">Creation of Subprojects</h3> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>PMC members may propose the creation of new subprojects. Creation of a new |
| subproject requires approval by 3/4 positve vote with a minimum of 3 positive |
| votes of the PMC. Abstaining PMC voters do not affect the result. New code |
| enters the DB project in accordance with ASF policy.</p> |
| </div> |
| </div> |
| <div class="sect2"> |
| <h3 id="_voting">Voting</h3> |
| <div class="paragraph"> |
| <p>The call for a vote on issues not detailed here may specify requirements for |
| passage. The minimum and default requirement for a passing vote is a simple |
| majority of PMC members casting ballots. The default voting period is 10 days |
| and the minimum is 7 days unless the success or failure is arithmetically |
| known.</p> |
