Ack'd. Please see the final draft. All podlings received sign offs so I didn't email any individual dev lists. Interested PPMC members should be subscribed to general@ while the podling is under incubation, to be aware of incubator wide discussions.
As an aside, I would recommend that more mentors look at your report in the future, but I see nothing wrong with it (it's more of a mentor engagement problem).
