pardon me for being so ignorant, but all i know of apache is what i read

it seems to me that there are a few recurring concerns about these items,
even in the short period that i have been subscribed.

the incubation, the releases, and the user lists - and the general feeling
toward projects that are in the incubator.

here are a few snippets that cast a lot of doubt on where things actually
stand:

statements like these are always answered by stating that incubation does
not reflect on code quality or whether or not a project is production ready
- but the general negative sentiment is clearly there even if not true in
the eyes of apache folks. and it comes up often.

I wrote this meaning that Woden isn't production ready but can now see
you could interpret my words as meaning all incubator podlings aren't
production ready - which certainly isn't the case. I hope this isn't
a' Freudian slip' on my part and if it is then is solely because I
have limited exposure to podlings other than Woden. So I apologise.

IMHO, the confusion arises because the podlings aren't *endorsed* as
Apache projects. Making a leap from that to 'is not production ready'
is wrong.

Cheers,
Jeremy
