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.
