The merits of the particular proposal aside

We should always be judging the merits of each proposal. Failing to do so
might well be part of the problem.


How is this possible when any other PMC can vote to bring a project in without approval of the incubator PMC? Just look at the raft of projects being brought in via Geronimo and the WS PMC. There's not a thing I can do, regardless of the merits. The only thing I can say is whether or not their community is good enough to merit graduation.


I think that the incubation process is setting an incredibly
low bar for access to the Apache brand name

And we require disclaimers and clear notice that projects ARE in the
Incubator. Look at how the folks are complaining that we are trying to make the projects look different by being in the Incubator. They ARE different.
And they MUST be Incubator branded, and follow Incubation rules.

Most people in the world are unaware of the difference between an incubated project and an Apache project. Roy has also stated that once a project is in the incubator it ought to be regarded as an Apache project.
