| <p> |
| Welcome to the Directory community! |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The Apache Directory Project, like all other projects at Apache, |
| is a <em>meritocracy</em> and follows the <em>Apache Way</em> of |
| community and project management. The following documents |
| help define these terms and form the guidelines by which the |
| Directory Project operates. |

| <section name="Opening up the Directory Project's Repositories"> |
| <p> |
| The Directory Project continually looks at ways to cooperate |
| better with other projects, especially here at Apache. |
| Code reuse by us and others using our APIs is one of our |
| primary goals. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| If you are from another Apache project, and would like all the |
| committers from your project to have access to the Directory |
| Repositories, all you need to do is ask the Directory PMC |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The PMC will let you know if your request is accepted or |
| not. If you are interested in commit privileges, but are not |
| part of one of the Apache projects, then you have to do it |
| the old fashioned way and participate on the mailing lists |
| and post patches, etc. We are taking advantage of the Apache |
| infrastructure to make this happen. |
