Repeated my opinion again 1. Incubating should be required for words in README and other places mentioned, such as blogs, videos, website, github repository 2. incubator- prefix is required. 3. DISCLAIMER is required.
All of these make sure the incubating status is clear. All these have existed for years and are easy to practice. Basically, nothing needs to be changed about this.
