   I overlooked the  main issue which is that renaming the files breaks the 
links in any download pages.
   It would also break links in announce mails for the current release.
   The graduating PMC would need to coordinate very carefully with Infra to 
avoid breaking download page links; announce mails cannot be fixed without 
re-issue.
   
   Also, sometimes Incubator artifacts don't include the -incubating- marker.
   At least if the path contains incubator there is a clue.
   
   I think the above two reasons are sufficient reason not to rename the files.
   
   Note that updating download pages is almost always a manual process, and 
varies between projects, and would be ongoing for every graduation.
   
   Whereas changing the Infra and checker code to handle two different 
directories should be fairly simple and would then happen without further 
attention.
