A mentor doesn't have more formal powers than any IPMC member but he is a member of the PPMC, so you can add him as a mentor as soon as you have consensus for that within VXQuery. Different podlings have measured that consensus in different ways, often lazy consensus is enough or then a formal vote is used. Once you've done that, simply inform the IPMC by updating your status page.

I'm even thinking that we should drop the low diversity label and simply replace it with a more generic not yet ready to graduate one until we have a better shared understanding of the things podlings falling into that category still need to do. Not ready for graduation is also too generic, for thw low diversity case we can have of lacking to attract new committers , in that case maybe the podling community can explain why to the IPMC also /w the help of Mentors and hence we are able to evaluate whether the reasons are really valid not to graduate or not For examle Isis is a very active and healthy community but it took a while till new blood comes into the community, which is changing recently but I believe it happens to other podlings as well But in general as u mentioned more investigations about categories of such cases is idd required Given I committed to find a way for ComDev to support the Incubation process do you think this is a starting point?

Re: VXQuery: A Mentor's View
The VXQuery PPMC just concluded a vote to add Jochen Wiedmann as a mentor for the VXQuery project. The vote passed with the whole PPMC in favor of the addition. When I went to add Jochen to the project status page, I noticed that he is already listed as a mentor. Now I guess its official that Jochen is a mentor for the VXQuery project.
