HI,

There no rewriting here. If you want reference to policies does this work for 
you?

"In addition to the Apache mirror system incubating projects may distribute 
artifacts on other platforms as long as they follow these general guidelines:
        •       Releases must be placed in the Apache mirror system. [1]
        •       Source releases and convenience binaries need to be made from 
IPMC and PPMC approved ASF releases.[2][3]
        •       Where possible it should be pointed out that Apache project 
make source releases and convenience binaries are just a convenience for end 
user.[4]
        •       Convenience binaries need to follow licensing policy and not 
include any category X licensed software. [5]
        •       Convenience binaries should be signed and have hashes to verify 
their contents. [6]
        •       Release candidates, nightlys and snapshots must not be 
advertised to the general public.[7]
        •       Apache project branding and naming needs to be respected. [8]
        •       It should be clear that the artifacts are under the ALv2 
license.[9]
        •       An incubating disclaimer must be clearly displayed where the 
artifacts are made available. [10]
        •       All PPMC members must have access to administer the platform 
and the credentials recorded where any PPMC member can access them. [11]
        •       Where possible these artifacts should not be referred to as 
releases.[12]
        •       Where possible use platforms officially supported by Infra. [13]

All of the above SHOULD be followed. The podling can ask the IPMC for 
permission to do otherwise.”

Again this is to help podling comply with existing policy and does not rewrite 
it.

Thanks,
Justin
