| <section name="How the Apache Turbine project works"> | |
| <p> | |
| We have evolved into Top Level state from being a founding and long-time member | |
| of the Apache Jakarta Project and owe most of our rules and guidelines to the | |
| Jakarta project and are grateful for the guidance that we got from the Jakarta people. | |
| </p> | |
| <p> | |
| This is an evolving document and we expect it to branch away from the Jakarta | |
| rules in the future. For the moment, we will reference the Jakarta project | |
| guidelines here and apply these to the Apache Turbine Project. | |
| </p> | |
| <subsection name="Project Guidelines"> | |
| <p> | |
| This document defines the guidelines of the Apache Turbine Project. It includes | |
| definitions of the various categories of membership, who is able to vote, how | |
| conflicts are resolved by voting, and the procedures to follow for proposing | |
| and making changes to the codebase of the Project. | |
