Should we appoint one of the mentors at the start to be the "chair" of the PPMC, in the same way as a full project? I would see them as responsible for ensuring the podling is reporting, and that all of the mentors are engaged and signing off the reports.
Most incoming projects have leaders. One challenge of incubation is teaching the leaders to let go of the reigns, that there is no room for a BDfL at the ASF. So a chair during that period would probably be counterproductive. What you describe sounds like the role of a recording secretary. Yes, I think it's good if the project identifies one of its peers as the individual who is currently preparing the podling's report. Of course the podling could rotate the job, too. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
