>From the Wiki page: "This means that Projects under Incubation cannot release, and cannot do it using the Apache mirroring rules. It is possible though that these Projects make some snapshots available, that do not have all the implications of the releases but have a similar use." The first sentence seems a little strong to me. I'm hoping that by clearly marking a binary as being incubated, and therefore not ASF- endorsed, we're covering the important aspect here. I'm just concerned that 1) projects will be confused about whether they can create a build that they call 1.0 or 2.0 and link it from their front page, and 2) that we are unnecessarily restricting a project from using mirroring, which has benefits during incubation, and which should be trained during this phase. The second sentence is unclear to me. What implications do snapshot releases not have, other than the ASF endorsement? I just want to make sure it is clear if there are other restrictions.
