[wildfly-dev] Applying to Commonhaus

(project leads -- please be sure to read the 'If you maintain' part below.) I'd like to take the next step in transitioning the WildFly project to a vendor-neutral foundation by applying to Commonhaus. We've been talking about this for quite a while, gathering input, and the consensus I've seen has been that Commonhaus is the best option. I think Commonhaus’ guiding principles around honoring project and community identity and offering guidance instead of mandates, with its “community-first” governance model, make it the best for WildFly. The process of applying is covered at https://github.com/commonhaus/foundation/discussions/new?category=joining.... I'm hoping to initiate a discussion by the end of this week. That entails filling out the issue template linked above and sending up a PR with the necessary information. Note that I'll be applying for the 'WildFly' project, which is somewhat nebulously defined. A simplistic, and incomplete boundary is that it covers the non-archived projects hosted in the 'wildfly' GitHub organization. It will also cover non-archived projects in the 'wildfly-extras' GitHub org, except, perhaps: creaper sunstone wildfly-camel wildfly-camel-book wildfly-camel-examples It can cover those as well, but I want to check with the respective project maintainers that that's what they want. It will also cover a few repos in the 'jboss' and 'jbossas' Github orgs that really should be moved to the 'wildfly' org. If you maintain a project that is not in one of the categories above but that you believe fits into WildFly project governance, or could fit into a sensibly modified WildFly governance, and you'd like it to be considered part of this application, please let me know. If you want to discuss it here, that's fine. Some (not definitive) considerations as to whether a project 'fits' * Is it somehow 'WildFly' branded, or perhaps 'JBoss' branded as a leftover from 'JBoss AS'? * How much is it used outside of the various WildFly deliverables?
