The upcoming resolution [1] needs to define a "Description and scope" statement.
In the template [2] the statement used in two places. Here is the second: RESOLVED, that the Apache ${PROJECT} Project be and hereby is responsible for the creation and maintenance of software related to ${DESCRIPTION-AND-SCOPE}; and be it further Probably should look at recent resolutions to ensure that template is current. A suggestion: related to comprehension and auditing of software distributions We also need a concise description for use on the website, at Incubator podlings.xml metadata, reports, etcetera. The Apache Creadur (tm) Project provides a suite of tools for the comprehension and auditing of software distributions. Should we also have a concise description for each product, e.g. The Apache Creadur RAT (tm) software ... The Apache Creadur Whisker (tm) software ... I presume that we use a product's full name on the first mention, "Apache Creadur Whisker" and thereafter refer to it as "Apache Whisker" or just "Whisker". Is that correct?
