If the problem of over zealous mentors exists it is the same as now if not worse now isnt it as poddlings have the mentors plus anyone who happens to be about on gene...@? Poor mentors maybe an issue but as there would still be notification to general@ i expect there would be close scrutiny of the release votes. Also, would the suggestion of holding the first poddling release on general@ mitigate this issue at all? ...ant --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
