Marvin, I think the IPMC doesn't need to do anything, and instead the dissolution of Incubator's duties are put into the Board Resolution, just as they are with the normal graduation resolution.
So, from the Incubator's point of view, there is no effort, podling "disappears" and the pTLP is expected to clean up its Incubator presence just like a podling is expected to do once it graduates. // Niclas On Mon, Mar 2, 2015 at 3:29 AM, Marvin Humphrey <mar...@rectangular.com> wrote: > On Thu, Feb 26, 2015 at 11:08 PM, Greg Stein <gst...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Wed, Feb 25, 2015 at 7:08 AM, Marvin Humphrey <mar...@rectangular.com > > > > wrote: > > > >> On Wed, Feb 25, 2015 at 4:35 AM, Niclas Hedhman <nic...@hedhman.org> > >> wrote: > >> > On Wed, Feb 25, 2015 at 8:27 PM, jan i <j...@apache.org> wrote: > >> >> The proposal only refer to new projects entering Apache, would it be > >> >> worth while to consider a way for projects that entered Incubator > >> >> recently and has enough (whatever that is) asf members as committers > ? > >> > > >> > That is a discussion for perhaps the Incubator, but more specifically > the > >> > podlings that you might be referring to. > >> > >> I don't see why the Incubator wouldn't just let them go. > > > > Haha.... well, the reality is that the Incubator wouldn't have a choice. > If > > the Board passes a pTLP resolution, then there isn't much the IPMC could > do > > about it :-P > > Clearly the pTLP resolution is outside the Incubator's jurisdiction -- the > only question is how the podling gets closed down.
