<p>We discussed the upcoming EPF review. The project is trying to do the right
thing, but does not appear to have diverse committer population. What should we
say in this situation? Not diverse but everything else good and good intentions,
should they go ahead anyway? Is there anything they can do to encourage more
committers to be involved? Consensus was &quot;yes&quot;.</p>
<p>Ward wondered what happened to the ObjectMentor XP group that was going to
join the project as per the Creation Review? Ward will follow up with the EPF
Lead and at the Review itself.</p>
<p>Lots of discussion around this issue. We want to do the right thing for the
EPF and for the overall Eclipse community.</p>
