Why not just modify incubator procedure to make it clear that
1) Mentors make the requests and
2) They sign the email w/ the title "$PODLING_NAME Mentor"
Now #2 don't prevent someone from misrepresenting themselves - which
would have to be dealt with - but rather it allows us to not act on but
simply reply back to those that ask for accounts w/o representing
themselves as mentors...

Infrastructure,

Requests for infrastructure and accounts should be coming from those
Mentors, and should be cc'd to the Incubator PMC, so that it can maintain
oversight.
Hmm, while this makes sense it also makes it very hard to recognize
valid requestors. The Incubator PMC membership is not always a long-term
relationship and so root@ (et al) will have to find out about new
mentors in some easy way.
For example there's this account request from Don Brown
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> from today - it's not easily possible to find out if
he is supposed to be in charge of that - there's nothing on the PMC list
and there's just one vote thread covering the proposal on the public
list, nothing else... so how are we supposed to find out if he is a
mentor for some poddling?
(And btw, I don't think it is efficient to dig mailing list archives on
every incubator request but that's the only possibilty right now, the
website isn't up2date in this regard.)
Cheers,
Erik
