Hi All,

I'd like us to discuss potentially creating an evangelist program like Java Champions, but for Jakarta EE.  For those that are not aware, Java Champions is an officially backed program to recognize outstanding individuals who move Java forward in their communities and with their careers.  Nomination come from within the group.  There are usually a couple perks for getting in.  Being added means getting recognition and a pat on the back from other hardworking luminaries for being an outstanding citizen.  It's a badge of honor.

What do people think?

Note, I'll say we could start light (as in zero) on the perks and slowly add them here and there as we see opportunities.  Natural we'd want to prioritize funds.  That said, if it were perceived we had intentions on directing funds towards champions, it could help our ability to get more Influencer members.  It would be likely to be a part of the ecosystem they'd want to see strengthened.
