Please Note The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

Assigning committers@ and www.apache.org to Marketing and Publicity

18 Dec 2019 ¶

 Our infrastructure team typically requires that there be an owner
 (generally a PMC or a committee or officer) for every resource.  To date,
 commmitters@ and www.apache.org have been exceptions.  To address this, the
 President proposes that the following takes effect at the start of the 2020
 calendar year:

 1) Marketing & Publicity gets final approval for all emails sent to
 committers@, as well as all emails addressed to all committers whether or not
 it uses such a list.  An example of this was as the recent email announcing
 the Diversity and Inclusion survey. Greg has a todo to come up with a proposal
 for guidelines.  Marketing & Publicity will ensure that the tools used for any
 emails that do not make use of the committers@ list are approved by the VP,
 Data Privacy.

 2) Marketing & Publicity would be responsible for Ownership and management of
 www.apache.org.  This would make things clearer for Central Services which
 will administer such pages as they would have a single source from which to
 get answers.

 This should provide clarity over list ownership whenever future
 infrastructure tickets are brought up regarding these lists.

 Send an email to press@ for inquiries about this list.
