I've read through the Incubator documentation as best as I can tell.
Sorry for sleeping in class, but where exactly are we in the process
outlined here?
http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html
Have we officially voted to be a sponsor? If not, when do we need to do that?
Do we need a separate Champion and Mentor? It looks like, as an
officer of the ASF, I could be both. I am willing to do that but it
will slow the process down (could it be any slower?) and will probably
have some fits and starts because the documentation is a bit
confusing. If we do need separate people for Champion and Mentor then
I am willing to be the Mentor if we can find a member to act as
Champion. (I don't understand why podlings applying as subprojects
really need a champion anyway as long as they have a sponsoring PMC.
We're not bringing on new committers who know nothing about the ASF.
We're importing external code, largely developed by an ASF committer.)
If I am to be a Mentor, do I read the documentation correctly that I
need to request to join the Incubator PMC?
Again, I haven't been following this process as closely as I should,
for which I apologize. Right now, my primary goal is to get it moving
and done and I am willing to take on whatever responsibility is
necessary to make that happen. Moving slow is better than spinning
wheels :-)
Thanks,
Greg
