As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I think this is a source of confusion. The term "Champion" should always have the same requirements. Before incubation: ipmc member or member While incubation: ipmc member or member But as I suggested in another thread I would like to prefer the Champion be a pmc member of the sponsor. Currently it reads: "Where the Champion is not a Member of the Foundation (i.e. is an Officer only), the Champion shall be a member of the PMC of the Sponsor." http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Roles_and_Responsibilities.html#Champion Actually I think every Champion should be a member of the Sponsor. In case of "Incubator"-Sponsor, did we ever had the situation that a Member championed but was not on the IPMC? If this is not the case I would prefer to rephrase this to: "The Champion shall be a member of the PMC of the Sponsor." As Members can become IPMC members on request, it does not make sense to mention them explicitly. Thoughts?
