No one bother to flame, I'm done.
Are mild chuckles allowed? (;->
The incubation process of Lenya went along the same unregulated road, but maybe the grease left by Tapestry helped in reducing the amount of flames apparently inherent to the process.
_Persistent_ involvement of the sponsoring member(s) during the 'process' is also a thing to emphasize, and not only for infrastructural matters (which in the case of Lenya were handled swiftly by Sander & Pier). Especially if the project is eager to leave incubation, but 'not quite there yet'. The first and the last {$unit-of-time} of the process certainly are the most visible ones, with the usual chest-thumping and all that, but it is my sincere belief (given my small experience with Lenya now) that the time in-between start & finish is critical to the survival of the project after 'graduation'.
Just my 0.02 EUR, if any Lenyatic wants to chime in, please do.
