Thanks Chris, It would be great to have a whimsy page that allows an IPMC member to properly automate the creation of a podling.
Other incubator podling startup steps that could be improved beyond LDAP would be: - Add the podling to podlings.xml - Create the podling status file and yml file. - Anything else? A second whimsy form could be used to help maintain the three file formats - podlings.xml, status xml and status yml. Should this be the podling roster page?
