Well sorry but IMHO thats nonsense. The Maven decision was an isolated incident and didn't change the way all future Incubator policy should get decided. Insisting that this experiment is done via a change to the main policy just makes it contentious when it doesn't need to be. All the complexity

Thanks for the clarification Jake. There is a very small number of people who have access to the Github Apache organization and they are the ones responsible for managing and maintaing the mirrors. It would be very difficult to deal with the auth on an external system and cross usernames

There is currently no set standard procedure or policy for Github. Apache Cordova is the only project that I am aware of that uses Github as a means for patch ingestion and they require that all contributors have an ICLA on file and explicitly grant use to the ASF for that submission. Apache
