I don't have stats. I don't know a lot of Apache Projects using R-T-C, and the 5 incubating projects I have mentored haven't even mentionned the matter at all : it was C-T-R from day zero for them. I would be *very* surprised if more than a few Apache projects were to use R-T-C mode... And again, it's not really important here. The key is to know if you want the project to be out of incubator quickly. From the community building POV, I just think that using R-T-C will make the path way longer... If you think it's not a problem, then fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
