Most of those announcements do seem to at least mention something about incubating, the release management guide is a bit sparse though, I think we should update the release management guide to at least mention that announcements must follow the branding guidelines at http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html, and say poddling announcements must mention that its incubating and perhaps include the full disclaimer text in the email. ...ant --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
