Folks, Frank's suggestion to the Incubation Committee make a lot of sense to me, especially the section highlighted below. Should we proceed in this way and ask developers to declare that they agree to follow our processes? Just to keep tally of who is on our list.

I would suggest asking all developers to announce once they have reviewed the guidelines if they agree to them on the developer mailing list. A tally should be kept, and anyone who doesn't respond in some reasonable time (and after a bit of prompting) should be removed from the committer list. For GDAL I took this as an opportunity to clear away a few inactive committers. Likewise, having new committers announce their review, and agreement to the guidelines on the public developers list is a good practice. </snip> For the Mapbender project the comparable relevant page would be: http://www.mapbender.org/Development Please discuss if required, else I will start a motion for our next IRC to this effect. But there is no need to hurry if there is need for discussion.
