I think you missed a very important part of what I said, let me quote the para you refer to: "Rave achieved this because Ate Douma (mentor) pointed to the appropriate docs. Matt Franklin read and understood the docs and did a release. Ate watched and advised throughout the process." Read the last sentence again "Ate watched and advised throughout the process". My point is we can't expect the mentors to type everything over and over again for every podling, that's why we have docs. We can (and should) expect mentors to answer questions and point out errors in the application of what is learned from the docs.
