Hi all,
since the last three reports for Olingo were done in the same way I assumed 
that writing the report and informing the mailing list is ok for everyone.
The deadline for the report is January 1st, so I propose that everyone who has 
feedback for the report speaks up before the deadline.
If there is no feedback I assume that everyone is ok with the report (lazy 
consensus).

Lazy consensus is generally fine for some aspects, but in case of a podling that will eventually show it is "ASF-mature" enough for graduation, I would encourage as much discussion as possible.

Anyway, I would say that the report you've submitted is just fine and that we can think to action starting from next report.

@Francesco: Thanks for pointing this out. Any proposal how we should do that 
for future reports? How do other projects deal with that? Maybe you have some 
more experience?

In Cocoon and Syncope (especially the latter that have gone through incubation in 2012, so recently enough) usually someone from PMC - which is most of time the PMC chair - prepares a draft report and send it via e-mail with a subject line like as "[DRAFT] Report Apache XXX January 2014", leaving some time (usual 72 hours are fine) open for discussion.
If no one objects, the report is then submitted.
Naturally, discussion can actually modify the text of the report being sent.

Holding such discussion at dev@ will help matching requirements expressed by [1] and finally speed up the incubation process.

HTH
Regards.

Hi,

Hi all,
aren't we supposed to discuss and approve the report before (see [1])?

Regards.
